First you get me hyped then you tell me it's a Vita port of a iOS port of a 360 game

Hmm I'm starting to think the same after googling reviews of the ios game...

 

[Doczu]

I thought Civilization Revolution on iOS was the PS360 game, and this is a sequel (as the numbering implies)?

For Clarification:

The FIRST Civilization Revolution on iOS was a direct port of the Nintendo DS game.

The second one is a direct port of the PS360 game, but because they already had a Civ Revolution game on iOS they added "2" to the title. It's almost the same as the PS360 title, with only minor changes and i think 1 or 2 extra civilizations to choose.

So the PS Vita game is a port of the iOS version, which is a port of the PS360 version.

Civil Rev 2 on iOS is basically a graphical update to Civ Rev 1 on iOS. The AI is essentially the same.

A graphical update where they also stripped out a heap of features :|

That may indeed be a port of the PS360 game, but either way it isn't something I'd rush to buy on a Vita.

So be wary.

Ohhh, fair enough, I've just looked up a few reviews with pictures. Didn't realise the first version on phones was the DS one.

Fair enough then!

Civilization Rev 2 is a good game, I have it on IOS. And strategy is a genre that was lacking on Vita until now, will buy.

But I'm not too thrilled about XCOM.

 

[Mister Sloane]

Quite liked the first game (played on DS and iOS) but never got round to getting the second for some reason - but this will change! Love the box art too.

 

[Tizoc]

XCOM needs a badass cover like that. If the english release keeps that cover count me in.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Gandhi cannot POSSIBLY mean to use THAT attack???!?

Could this and XCOM really be 2K initiative ?

Vita fans in leadership positions confirmed. Sell your stocks while you can.

What's wrong with xcom? Have I missed something? My vita's been crying out for xcom since I got it. Hope it's not a shitty port/dumbed down version.

 

[Xion_Stellar]

I will have to give it a thought if I buy this BUT I will definitely buy XCOM Enemy Unknown Plus as that game was actually one of my picks when Sony was taking candidates for the list.

So 2K:

• ported this to vita
• localized it in Japanese
• commissioned a market-appropriate cover

What's happening? What am I missing? Is CIV huge in Japan or something?

Don't ask questions just buy.

Don't ask questions just buy.

Yes, sir.

Well, I wouldn't say "huge" if the one you're selling is a Rev game. Hell, it's in the Vita and the Japanese market towards Vita isn't exactly what I'd call massive.

I found the PS3 version boring.

 

[Shizuka]

That art reminds me of Toukiden, I wonder if it's the same artist.

 

[CaptNink]

OMG! This is awesome news! Will buy both XCOM and Civ!!!

 

[Rymuth]

It is. Nice one.

 

[Elixist]

love the art new avy for a bit

 

[jiggle]

What'd I do for a real civ rev sequel with hidari ...

 

[Infernal Monkey]

Amazon has some (small) screenshots up.

Play-Asia also has the Asian release (with English text) listed for December.

 

[sense]

That actually looks pretty good. Hope it runs well. I am more interested in the xcom game but might give this a shot
