Picking up Bioshock/Jeanne D'Arc tomorrow, happy day!
They made a game about Joan of Arc? Ah, must have slipped completely by the radar.
On a side note, if anyone has Civilization 4, GET BEYOND THE SWORD, that expansion was just recently released, and I have found that it has renewed my interest in the series. While Warlords improved the existing game, Beyond the Sword takes it to Civ 4.5, there is a lot more play involved, right now I am playing with the outer-space mod. Essentially this mod changes the world map into outer space; the background is very reminiscant of Xenosaga. I played some similar type things on Civilization 2, but those mods generally sucked, this one does everything so well, the graphics are beautiful, the orbiting planets, everything! To give a bit more info on the scope of this, there is also a mod which converts the game into an X-Com style title (X-Com was an old Microprose title, Microprose being the old Civilization development company before Firaxis).
I don't have the time to list off all the features now, but I will say, like every expansion to the series, there are new scenarios (with vastly different styles of gameplay that actually work well) and the regular game has new techs, new wonders, new leaders, and a bunch of new Civilizations; oh, and victory condition improvements. Etc.....
