I cannot tell you how revolutionary this feels. I'm a longtime Civilization player, and there have been so many incidents where I absent-mindedly dispatched a worker to an empty farm, only to be struck by the horrifying thought:It's too late. That farmer is stuck plowing a field, reducing the overall efficiency of your game plan by a maddingly imperceptible degree.

UK regulator U-turns on Activision acquisition, takes Microsoft's side on Call of DutyOne of Josh's first memories is of playing Quake 2 on the family computer when he was much too young to be doing that, and he's been irreparably game-brained ever since. His writing has been featured in Vice, Fanbyte, and the Financial Times. He'll play pretty much anything, and has written far too much on everything from visual novels to Assassin's Creed.
