personally, I like Civ V sooooo much better than IV, so for me this would be a total no-brainer.  That said, apparently, I'm in the minority, as most people I've mentioned that to think I"m completely mental.

I say 'go for it' - it's a fantastic game that does a great job of carrying on the Civ name.

Get it! I wholly agree with the above. Also, there are some fun mods for it.

Thanks for the information, Grim.Reaper.

Here's the link (http://www.amazon.com/Sid-Meiers-Civilization-V-Download/dp/B004774IPU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328027804&sr=8-1) if anyone else is interested.

Amazon also sells the Civilization V Game of the Year Edition (http://www.amazon.com/Sid-Meiers-Civilization-Game-Year-Pc/dp/B005M0KSIM/ref=pd_sim_b_3) for $40 U.S. It comes with:

If you're Steam adverse, I'd check just to make sure that the Amazon doesn't require it.  I have a feeling that it does since IIRC CIV V is a Steamworks game.

It does. All copies of Civ V require Steam, AFAIK.
