    Civilization 5--at a deep discount

    Amazon is shipping a box copy of Civ 5 for $35, shipping included, as part of their "pre-black-Friday" sale. Thinking I'm going to buy this--I've heard good things. Has anyone tried importing their non-digitally-purchased, non-Valve-produced games into Steam? It would be cool to get Steam to recognize that I own this game to load it onto my laptop/get the free DLCs/etc.

    EDIT: I did, in fact, buy it, because this deal's only there for a few hours.

    I have Civ 5. Great game as always, still the same basic concept as 4 with a much improved UI. My only issue with the game is lack of time to play it...

    I love Civ 5 also. I would really enjoy trying a MP match, I just need to tear myself away from COD:BO and Fallout first.

    I'd be in on a Civ 5 match if there's one at a time that I'm available, like Thursday evening.

    Cool. I took the cheapskate "supersaver" shipping option so I probably won't have it until next week sometime, at the earliest. We should pick an evening after the Turkey Day break--preferably some evening when we have a LONG time to play!

    See that's the reason I've shyed away from the online concept. They must have a way to speed it up though. Either case, if I'm available I'd give it a shot. Certainly can't hurt to try. Random generals, 1 big continent??
