Question about the Civilization series for those that voted for it:

I love this series and have played I-III and VI and put III and VI on my list (III ahead of VI). But now I see that IV is the highest ranked game on this list. For those that put IV on your list...what makes it the best in your opinion? I may give IV a shot if it's that much better than the rest.

I don't have your answer because I prefer III to IV. But IV is a great game on its own. Classic Civ play was at its best for this entry. The combat made a lot more sense too. While CIV III, I prefer the scenarios. IV is definitely in my top 100 games, but it didn't make top 50. 

I think it also came out at a more convenient time when more gamers were getting into PC games. Civ III was released as a mangled mess until the complete edition.
