Been playing it co-op on the PC, it's pretty good. Better than the first on pretty much every count, but it isn't reinventing the wheel.

Re: Civ V

I remember. I personally like it. It's different than 4, and doesn't have 2 expansions + patches to fix stuff behind it yet, but I think it'll eventually be a superior product in almost everyones eyes. Game mechanics alone are great, it's mostly just bugs and an AI that can't handle the combat super...

It's actually not an RTS, it's a TBS. Goes in turns, much slower pace than an RTS game. You start a game by picking a civ, map size, difficulty, that sort of thing.

There's definitely bugs with the game. The unbreakable treaties is a really infuriating one and has bit me a couple of times.

Guns in DR2 (at least in Case Zero) are much more friendly to use than they were in DR1. MUCH better.

There's also going to be an xbox 360 exclusive Case West that serves as an epilogue to DR2 and features Chuck Greene and Frank West. He's covered wars, y'know?
