[ Announcement ]

This kind of hurt my brain.
The state of Maryland has officially recognized local developer Firaxis' Sid Meier's Civilization V  by naming the day of its release after the game itself. As dictated by a gubernatorial proclamation, September 21, 2010 will be known as "Sid Meier's Civilization V Day."

Governor Martin O'Malley signed the proclamation today, citing the achievements of legendary designer and studio founder Sid Meier, "a longtime and celebrated Marylander who has spent his full professional life in this State."

I donno seems cool to me. Sid Meier was one of the pioneers of the industry, and probably the only one of that old breed who hasn't lost his touch or gone completely consoletarded.

Don't get it, if they're all so much into Sid, why call it Civilization "5" day, not just a generic Civilization day, so that the holiday will make more fucking sense in, say, 10 years or so.

It says that September 21, 2010, is Civ 5 day. I don't think it's intended to be a recurring event.

You didn't read his rantings on game design recently? He's more consoletarded than Molineux!
