Another blog post from Aspyr Media has surfaced about their porting efforts on Civilization: Beyond Earth, and the news is looking good.

I have seen a lot of slagging of C:BE from beta players, and some players have said that they prefer Pandora:First Contact, which I have, and, while it's not as polished as a Firaxis game, it does a lot with what it has and is highly recommended as a good new version of a classic. I still play Alpha Centauri from GOG with PlayOnLinux, and it certainly passes the time while I make up my mind whether to take that plunge. I've barely scratched the surface of CIV V...
