   Unfortunately the developer has gone the way of a lot of the big name developers, where they release the game in an unfinished form then release a series of DLC's that add extra functionality to the game. This game in particular has had nine seperate DLC's since it was released earlier this year. The total cost of these is almost as much as the base game:

   Sid Meier’s Civilization® V: Babylon (Nebuchadnezzar II) - £2.99
   Civilization V: Cradle of Civilization - Mediterranean - £1.99
   Civilization V: Cradle of Civilization - Asia - £1.99
   Civilization V: Cradle of Civilization - Americas - £1.99
   Civilization V: Cradle of Civilization - Mesopotamia - £1.99
   Double Civilization and Scenario Pack: Spain and Inca - £4.49
   Civilization and Scenario Pack: Polynesia - £2.99
   Civilization and Scenario Pack: Denmark - The Vikings - £2.99
   Civilization V: Explorer’s Map Pack - £2.99

   Total cost of the DLC's £24.41, though you can purchase these in bundles that save you a few pounds/dollars

   You do get one of the DLC's included in the Deluxe version, but the full price, which is £10 more than the standard edition that gives you the sound track, and a behind the scenes look at the game being made; hardly worth an extra £10 IMO, (though in the sale this equates to £3.40). The additional DLC you get with the deluxe version costs £2.99, so you're basically getting the behind the scenes and the sound track for £0.41 (while it's on sale) :)

   Dino D-Day

   The Game:

   The year is 1942. Adolf Hitler has succeeded in resurrecting dinosaurs. The reptilian horde has trampled Europe and the Mediterranean. Can nothing stop the Nazi’s dinosaur army?

   Dino D-Day is a frantic, action-packed multiplayer game that transports you to a World War II that should have been. You and your friends can battle online choosing to serve the cause of the Allied nations or the Nazis. The Allied side includes seven playable characters including Trigger, a Protoceratops rescued from the Nazis. Each Allied class has unique weapons and abilities to use in combat. Gun down a Dilophosaur with your trusty M1 Garand, blast a kamikaze pterosaur out of the sky with your Thompson sub-machine gun, or toss out a dead jackrabbit to lure a raptor into a trap.

   As an Axis player you will have your choice of three human classes and four dinosaur classes. Ambush your enemy with speed and stealth as the Raptor, mercilessly pound the enemy with a heavy 20mm gun as the Desmatosuchus, rampage through enemy groups as the Dilophosaur or pick up a body and throw it at an enemy for a double kill! Or if you prefer a rifle in your hand, the German soldier classes are the perfect complement to their dinosaur comrades.

   You’ve played World War II games before…but have you played a World War II game with dinosaurs?

   Key features:

   • Frantic online multiplayer action involving Nazis and Dinosaurs

   • 7 playable dinosaur classes: Velociraptor, Dilophosaur, Desmatosuchus, Stygimoloch, Trigger the Protoceratops, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Styracosaur.

   • 9 playable human classes

   • 26 classic World War II weapons and plenty of exciting dinosaur attacks!

   • Powered by Valve’s Software’s Source engine – the technology behind such mega-hits as Half-Life 2, Team Fortress 2, Portal, Portal2, Left 4 Dead, and Left 4 Dead 2!

   System Requirements

   Minimum:

   OS: Windows XP/Vista/7
   Processor: Pentium 4 3.0 GHz
   Memory: 1 GB
   Hard Disk Space: 5 GB of free space
   Video Card: 128 MB, Shader model 2.0, ATI 9600, NVidia 6600 or better
