Civilization 5 Pre-loading on Steam!!!

OMG! Civilization 5 is preloading on Steam as we speak. Those of you who pre-ordered a digital copy on Steam can start downloading the game today and have it ready for launch day. You have no idea how excited I am. Thankfully, Tuesday is not a gym day, so I'll be able to play to my heart's content... After class, and work, and making dinner, of course. Oh man, I suspect I'm going to be very tired on Wednesday morning of next week... LOL!

I've watched a couple of videos of the game in action, and I can't express just how excited I am. I'm trying to limit my exposure to the pre-release hype, but let's be honest, despite how hard I try, it's going to be nearly impossible to stay focussed and un-hyped. I just hope my expectations aren't TOO high... Besides, Civ 4 was awesome. Let's just how Civ 5 isn't to Civ 4 as SimCity: Societies was to SimCity 4. That would be tragic.

And yes, the title deserves 3 exclamation points. :-P
