Goodbye Social Life, You Will Be Missed...

As many of you know, Civilization V was released today.  Being a huge faJust one more turn...n of the Civilization series, I purchased Civ V off Steam right away.  After putting a few hours into the game, I'm here tonight to say goodbye to my social life for awhile.  Civ V improves on everything in Civilization IV and is much more user friendly than the previous entries.  New comers and veterans alike will absolutely fall in love with this turn based strategy game.  You will definitely be at you computer until the wee hours telling yourself, "Just one more turn..."  Now if you'll excuse me, I must go back to expanding my civilization and yes I am simply Alt+Tab right now to write this quick update.
