Product Mini Profile Civilization III: Complete in: Turn-based Strategy (PC) links » user reviews faqs/guides

PC gamers who prefer to download their titles are likely familiar with GamersGate. In case not, it's a "leading digital distribution platform", in the vein of other popular services like Steam.

Well, the company has scored a pretty big name for their service: 2K Games, the dudes behind (as publisher and/or developer) the BioShock series, the 2K Sports franchise, Civilization Revolution, and tons more.

As of now, this effectively releases just Sid Meier's Civilization III: Complete and Shattered Union for digital distribution, but others are planned of course, including Sid Meier’s Railroads!, CivCity Rome and Sid Meier’s Pirates! Presumably, BioShock will be made available promptly (it's been on Steam for awhile), as well as the rest of the series in the future. Some 2K Sports titles would be great, too, no?

"2K Games publishes some of the best PC games in the world and we are happy to welcome them to GamersGate,” said Theodore Bergquist, CEO on GamersGate. "This further confirms the position of GamersGate as the leading download portal in the world.”
