Civilization gets an upgrade

Bringing back some fond memories of nights wasted playing God when I should have been sweating over my college books, game publisher Take-Two Interactive has acquired the rights for the computer game Civilization.

The new owner has promised to publish a new version 4 of the game by the end of this year. It will allow gamers to create custom content using standard Python or XML development tools.

XML in Civilization? Do they call that progress? Back my days, I just wanted to get to build nuclear missiles as soon as possible and start nuking the place. Why can't certain things just stay the same?
