There are plenty of places you can pre-order
Civilization V before the release next week but did you know you get different bonuses depending on where you pre-order from? It's a common practice these days and to help make your decision easier, 2K has a nice
little website setup to let you know which etailer has what for you.
Four of the five places give you a map while Direct2Drive offers up
Civilization III and other Civ goodies. The website gives you a look at each map pack that they will be offering depending on the pre-order site. The four different map packs available are: Mesopotamia, America, Asia, and The Mediterranean.
