Sid Meier's Civilization Series is about to make the jump to free Facebook gaming -- and in the process bring one of the most addictive gaming experiences to the Facebook platform.
Previously known as 'Civilization Network' the newly re-branded and revamped Civ World features a cooperative game play in which one gamer takes on the position of leader, while their partners take the position of followers, and collectively they work towards accomplishments that include building wonders, winning battles, and creating cities and civilizations in a competitive world.
LAS VEGAS -- Civilization is one of the gods of strategy games, where you oversee the creation of a whole society in competition with other civilizations. It debuted in 1991, and now at 25, it has become one of the cultural touchstones of the game industry, something that everyone recognizes or has played in the past.
Maybe I'm saying this because my PC is shit but I really would like a good console Civilization game on par with the PC ones.

Interesting stats, but they missed the most important ones- how many relationships were ruined? And how many jobs were lost?
I still remember the day my dad finally convinced me to go and peel the potatoes by turning off the power to the entire house.
I think I lost about 5 hours worth of game play that day.
The end is nigh! After two years on Facebook, the CivWorld is set to face its very own Armageddon in two months time.
Edge: "Falling sales of 'me-too' games mean devs need to better understand player psychology, says Graham McAllister."
