My First Civ Experience

[Bearcat]

Just a few days ago I played my first game of Civilization. It was Test of Time. I have played plenty of Alpha Centauri and Alien Crossfire. But my experience with ToT was horrible. It had inferior graphics. But it had an interesting mix of civilizations. I played the Aztecs the first time.

Anyone remember their first game?

The first time I played civ, it was Civ1 and I played it at work. Those were the good old days; come to work play Civ, oh look its time for lunch, come back from lunch and play Civ until it was time to go home. Yes, those were the days.

I will agree with you that the graphics in the Civ games are pretty bad but once you get over that it is a really cool game. You know that is the only game I've never gotten tired of. Most games I'll play for a couple months or so and then I'll get bored with them. I've been play civ for 3YEARS and it still feels like its new every time I play it. So stick with it man.

I share the "FREAK OUT" Bearcat. I just got TOT a few hours ago. I have been playing SMAC & Call to Power only for a little while now and I was very upset by the TOT crap graphics.
Man!! this is a 1999 game is it not.

HAVE I DONE THE RIGHT THING???
Oh well, I suppose game play is the main thing when it comes to strat games. I think I better go play some CTP now before I start to cry.
