I thought Civ 4 was a pretty good game except for the memory leak. I would basically have to set the game to auto save every 3 or 4 turns because it would lock the entire computer and need to be rebooted to clear the ram.

Anyways, the game play was great, despite the revamp of the combat system.

Grrrr... they were supposed to show up as boxes, but I guess bcause i used *'s for the tops and bottoms that it wouldn't line up with the -'s. oh well, you get what I'm saying....

I'm currently running a NVidia GeForce FX 5200 with the newest drivers at a resolution of 1024x768. The very first time I loaded the game up, it ran a little slow, so I dropped teh video quality and restarted the game. My old screen looked like this |**********| |----------| |----------| |----------| |**********| and was square and worked good (or whatever shape) now, the game is doing something like this |********************
