The screenshots have been great so far, but I'd like to see this game in action soon. Could we get some video with some gameplay posted on the official website? Preferrably something like the first 50 turns or first 10 minutes or something consistent. Playthrough commentary would be nice but optional; I'd rather the video show off some unedited gameplay.

I've seen the IGN "dancing bears" video (http://ps3.ign.com/dor/objects/947168/civilization-revolution/videos/civrev_031008.html) too many times, but it doesn't really offer any cohesive gameplay elements. It's just showing off some of the (beautiful) animation much like a collection of screenshots rather than bona fide gameplay.

Also seen Dan Quick's videos on the Apolyton site (http://apolyton.net/forums/showthread.php?threadid=171835). Those are the best gameplay vids I've seen so far, but the video quality is terrible (cell-phone-tastic) and the footage is edited and confusing.

I never could get those videos @ Apolyton working on my PC or Mac. I am no noob, either. lol I think the links were broken when I was trying.

Well, I'm sure they'll be released eventually.
But it isn't really something you can ask for on demand either. Just be patient.

Why not? The OP's request was made in a perfectly polite and courteous manner, and the staff at 2K have been more than generous in the past in their efforts to help us out.

Shouldn't the final decision be left to 2K?

i'll ask around and put out the word about your desires. i'm not sure we're going to put out 10 minutes of straight gameplay (i'm not sure we've really ever done that in a gameplay video, maybe a walkthrough) but i'll poke around and see what we have!

Thanks! I know that teaser footage typically gives away little, and leaving the viewers wanting more. Figured it couldn't hurt to specifically ask for what I want to see.

Elizabeth, you have been most helpful in these past few weeks, giving us all the CivRev info you can. I know if you can't get your hands on some in-depth coverage, it wasn't from a lack of trying. Keep up the stellar work. Thanks again.

Thanks Elizabeth. You're an absolute star!

I second Man-Bear-Pig's sentiments. You guys have done a terrific job in keeping us informed, and your efforts in doing that are greatly appreciated.

Again, many thanks, and if I might quote M.B.P; keep up the good work!

Yeah, please don't take it personally mate! This sort of thing happens every day on forums everywhere, and it's no reflection whatsoever on your abilities as a mod.

Just keep up the good work, and as I like to say......stay frosty! :D
