Civilization V (yes, 5) is on sale on Steam right now for 25% off at $37.50. They're not advertising the sale at all, but its there, promise. Steam's just being sneaky.

@Ryguy226: I LOVE that movie poster.

@DrZaius: Yeah, it kinda is...

I enjoyed Project Sylpheed. However, I do have an undying love for space combat games, and you pretty much need to ignore the melodramatic story, but yeah, I enjoyed it as a space combat game.

@romevi04: About 45 minutes for me. Gotta start planning a trip!

The title picture above is enough reason to post what I found today.

This may sound petty or something, but can we not tag Bungie posts with "Activision"?

@Shamanoid: Daily Kotaku Science Post.

WTF

I liked Awkward Zombie the most this week, although it was a mostly strong showing all around. "There's a weird old man on the roof!" totally got to me.

@Zelda did it!: Is this too much text too? One of my favorite Penny Arcade's right here, and while I like anyone is put off by a wall of text, the above comic is fantastic. The masterful artwork helps too.

@jonincambridge: If you weren't already starred and I could promote this, I totally would. So true.

I've vowed NOT to buy Fable 3. I can't, not after the first two games disappointed me ever so.

VG Cats updated yet again this week. I think that makes 3 updates in the last 4 weeks!

@Jeffery Taylor: Actually, it seems that Mike Fahey has pretty much always been the MMO guy on Kotaku. He's been playing MMO's since Everquest, so I think he has a pretty good grasp on the genre. If you want a more in-depth analysis on how the game plays and all that, check out his MMO log posts he's been putting up…

@lawyer on drugs: VG Cats updated twice? Within a month? Within TWO WEEKS?!

I thought that this Nerfnow was far superior.

VG Cats delivered with a new bi-monthly update!

IMO, Digital Unrest and Dueling Analogs won this week, because if you think about it even for a moment, you realize Birdo is some sort of freak of nature and the heavy skeleton with the sandvich was pretty good, and in my limited playtime of Other M, Samus rambles on about nothing waaaay too much, and some of her…

I find it borderline appalling that people are ragging on NerfNow for "not being funny" when it is usually at least humorous when he's not doing a TF2 arc, and yet there's less hate for the clearly worse CAD, or even worse yet, Little Gamers.
