Sid Meier's Civilization IV: Gold Edition

Even two years after the fourth installment's release, Civ remains the gold standard for god games. Its latest expansion pack includes new scenarios (say, Rome circa BC) and leaders (Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great). You can also create a new society from scratch, and this new edition even expands possibilities for nonviolent Diplomatic Victories—hence the name "Beyond the Sword." For those who like to see how their steak was cooked, the Gold Edition includes a behind-the-scenes DVD, featuring an interview with the game's titular designer. Still, these are minor improvements; expect a fuller revision in next year's Civilization Revolution.
