This may not be the right place to post this, but:

I will not buy any 2k games software until my copy of Civ IV is playable. That is all.

I liked the Stronghold games until they released Stronghold 2. Somehow it wasn't the same any more, I can't put my finger on it, but I sold my copy on Amazon about 2 weeks after I bought it.
