Pandora's Tower Review
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but swords and chains excite me. Should you climb the towers in Xseed's JRPG/adventure hybrid to save your cursed (and tragically whiny) girlfriend?

E What do these ratings mean?

Two steps forward, three steps back. Civilization is now stuffed with mind candy, game play is far more difficult than necessary due to TMI. Hey Sid! ...time to get a clue, less is always MORE. Simpler is actually lots more fun. What would I change about Civ 4 to make it fun again? Goodbye 3-D (bogus mind candy) view. Goodbye totally worthless battle animations (thotless action that). Goodbye Sid!, your civ sux. I rate Civilization 3s as all A. Civ 4 gets a C.
