Civilization: Revolution delayed to July 8th, 2008. Sid Meier enters the Guinness Book of World Records
2K Games has delayed the release date of Civilization: Revolution (Xbox 360, PS3, DS) by one month — from June 3rd to July 8th — with no reason given.
Sid Meier, creator of the Sid Meier’s Civilization franchise and Director of Creative Development at 2K’s world-renowned Firaxis Games development studio, has officially won more game awards than any other video game creator according to the Guinness World Records Gamer’s Edition 2008. The Civilization series boasts some of Sid’s most impressive game awards, including Sid Meier’s Civilization IV, which was selected as Strategy Game of the Year by the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences (AIAS) and 1UP.com.
“I’m fortunate to be able to do what I love and am grateful for all of the wonderful recognition I’ve received over the years,” said Sid Meier. “It is every kid’s dream to make it into the Guinness World Records and I’m thrilled to be a part of the prestigious book. I’m thankful to the many game critics who have enjoyed our games and hope they are as excited about our upcoming Civilization Revolution title as I am.”
