    I will ask again duke since you seemed to not respond to my question... is it possible for you to record the games between you and forum and post them?

    Maybe... At minimum it would require a few hours of my time. And that would be for the bare minimum... no voice over, editing, etc. They certainly wouldnt get uplaoded for a few weeks since I'll be on vacation.

    If the games are actually good it would be so nice to watch... even without sound or editing. Just something to consider. The civ rev community would really appreciate it. Even though you dont know me at all you actually taught me how to really play this game with your videos. I knew how to "play" because I had played 1000's of MP games but I didn't have a real grasp of what it took to really be good.

    And I wonder why I lost my competitive advantage!

    Well Prey is the champ.

    Here are my 4 losses.

    His Zulu starts very close and I get tech from hut.
    His Arab starts very close and I get tech from 1st hut and vet upgrade from hut.
    Barbs take my city even though I don't even see a barb around 3400.
    English AI take my cap around 3300 and I had 0 gold.

    I won 2 games. 1 was stupid me taking his settler in 3700. The other was a pretty good game that I won Aztecs vs Aztecs.

    Probably one of the least fun nights of civ I have ever had. I would say good games but 5/6 were not good games. So I guess good game. I'm getting tired of how stupid this game can be.

    congratulation prey. good job on the big win. I feel in civ... 5 out of 10 games are already lost from the beginning(map positioning, ai close by, artifacts close by, what or what you dont get from hut/barbs, etc.). The other five are won by decision making. looks like duke got a couple of those games. good job anyway prey.

    Hmm, Duke played well.....just forgot to protect his cities a couple of times:-) Barbs and English can be hard to defend against.

    He won the "real game" Aztec vs Aztec, but I felt he had the map and gold.
    First game where I was Zulu against his Arab shows how stupid Zuku can be- Me cleaning the map with 3 Impi Armies early.
    Not easy to do anything against that even with Arab and specially with no gold.

    Had high hopes for some good games but that did'nt happen. Still satisfied when I won, but a little bad taste in my mouth I have to admit.

    FYI I recorded the games but they were not really worth posting. The Aztec game would be OK I suppose...

    Sure you can post the Aztec game, but what I really want to see(and not because the games where good) is the barb walk in and the last one when u where Spain. Just a little fun to see how you could be so unlucky .If it's not to much work u can post first Zulu Arab game and Aztec as a whole, and make a vid of the other 4 in one video.

    Guess it's not fun for anyone but me, but fun for me to see where u started and what u did or what u could not do.....And don't put my voice in any!!

    Hey forum, Man you're on fire. Taking this from duke, beating Digital in a best of 3 and sweeping the World Champ in the league - nice work!

    This should give some more respect to the skill on the PS3 side... He ''only'' did a 7-7 results in the PS3 tourney...

    There are some good players on PS3 - no doubt about that. When that is said, I have to say that at least 6 out of 7 losses came out of some of the worst starts I have ever seen. Eks. Zulu starting 30-40 tiles from nearest ai-Egypt starting with stonhenge 4 tiles from Germany and so on.
    Will not say I would have won with better starts, but I don't think anyone in here could win with those starts.

    I do think so of the best PS3 players could give u XBOX players a real match:-)

    I was kidding. I have no doubt that Xbox players are in general better than PS3 players. That the best also are there too, but there is some good players on PS3 too.

    I must be far from being a great/above good player on the Xbox side (forum speaking not ranked), but I could give some good game to some as you say.

    so who was the player that beat you properly? (just to see who is good). Sounds like that Star game?
    I hear that dukes videos have trained that jappy dude to be pretty good now, I might have backed him to be the arse kicker.

    The good PS3 players can definitely hold their own versus xbox players in my opinion. Its just not as many good players over on the PS3 side. On another note... Scottie do you still have your PS3? If so would you be interested in playing in our 8 man round robin tourney?

    I guess we will never really know unless we all could crossplay as 1 xbox player in 1 tourney doesnt really prove anything.....it stinks for yall that we stole some of your players like scottie etc....ha....if I had a copy Id play you guys but I had an xbox so buying this game for ps3 didnt make any sense to me after I noticed how much harder it was to find ranked games....

    There is good players, but every player that crosse from PS to Xbox told the competition was higher there and they improve their gameplay.
