  • Keep your Test of Time CD

    ...even after Civ3 is released. I predict it will become a cult classic. It's full potential has yet to be realized.

    Of course I will keep mine! But I won't ever play it again, except for nostalgia purposes.

      Keep it? You bet!

      I still have CIVNET, CIV2MGE, CIV2TOT, SMAC, and SMAC/Crossfire.

            What's so good about ToT?

            (I only have Civ2 classic)

              Perfect General? You mean the old DOS game? Ohh yes I loved that too - unfortunately I only had it on 8 1.44" disks - and one of those is gone forever now.

              I specially loved this change of LOS, depending of where you were. Gave really good chances for ambushes.

                  Perfect General II (1995) was even better, and it came on CD-ROM. You might still be able to find a copy somewhere.

                      [Looks at rack holding PC Game boxes, pondering the money and time wasted on the great majority of them, despite being carefully chosen at the time.]

                      [Looks at shady cardboard boxes full of CD's, and old 100+ diskette holder, mysteriously containing only good titles worth keeping, thinking about all the joys to be had for the 'value' described in that saying about the sun rising.]

                      Hmmmm. Maybe this totally fabricated post is solely due to the International Shipping debacle. Maybe.

                          I'll keep mine. And does anyone know where I can get a copy of the orginial Civ Game?

                            The graphics in ToT were so muddy and appalling I barely played the game. If it vanished tomorrow I would not lose any sleep. However my copy of Civ 1 still sits nestled in the cupboard despite the 5.25" disks being totally redundant, purely because I cannot bear to throw away such a beautiful game.
                            To doubt everything or to believe everything are two equally convenient solutions; both dispense with the necessity of reflection.

                              Personally I liked the graphics in ToT. The unit updates are also pretty good and I like the way they are animated now. ToT will definately stay on my harddrive for a while even when Civ3 is installed.
