Reply to PC Gamer gives Oblivion a 4 page, 16 screenshot review, Galciv2 gets 1 PAGE????? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Number of factors coming into play here. GalCiv really was a suprise success - on the surface, it's a turn based space strategy game. A niche genre if ever there was one.
