Carcassonne / Eurogamer
I think this is a fair enough review as long as you remember that reviews are unavoidably subjective - Carcassonne is quite good, but I personally don’t like the core game as much as Catan. I do really like that it’s perfectly playable offline and with only 2 players, though.
“Carcassonne is a solid game in the Xbox 360’s online multiplayer line-up, but if you’re in the market for a board game designed by a German with a title that begins with the letter C, it’s probably not quite as worthy of a purchase as Catan.”
I know this is subjective and all (lolreviews) but I’m just going to disagree with you. This game is much friendlier to n00bs and is much more briskly paced. On top of all that my wife actually likes this game… so that means that I’ll actually get to play it.
