    Still playing Civ 3, but as one of 6 games with a share on my time. Had Apolyton posted another tournament file at New Year I'd certainly have been playing it this week. Alas server issues seem to have ruined that opportunity. Still, it allowed me to play Dark Age of Camelot most of the week which is currently lots of fun.
    To doubt everything or to believe everything are two equally convenient solutions; both dispense with the necessity of reflection.

      I'm playing a lot of Grand Theft Auto 3 on my PS2, as well as Final Fantasy X and a dab of Madden 2002. On the PC side of things, I'm mainly playing a bit of Unreal Tournament and I just re-installed Heroes of Might and Magic 3. I've been playing some SNES games on an emulator, and a bit of MOO2.

      I think I've played CIV3 once in the last month. Maybe twice. Funny, I still check Apolyton at least once a day. Strangely enough, haven't felt an urge to re-install CIV2. Just don't feel like dealing with that outdated interface.

      I'm pretty sure I'll get back into CIV3 sooner or later. I'm mainly burned out on TBS, as opposed to that game in particular.

        I'm played out of CivI, CivII, CivIII, SMAC, CivCTP, AoE, AoE2(AoK), and Empire whatever it is. I'm currently playing a really old Take2 game PILGRIM. I'm currently playing around on Apolytonian forums.

          I'm playing that a lot on my PS2 as well...along with Burnout. In fact it is probably the first time I have ever spent more time on my PS2 than on my PC. Such great games they are...and always finished of course (no room for patching)

            The thing is that PSX and PS2 games are easy to test, as there are only two different machines on which they will be used, discounting mod-chips, but they're illegal so I won't worry.
            I'm sure that if everyone used a machine identical to the one on which Civ3 was developed, we would have no major bugs, etc.

              Yeah, I am still playing Civ III, and enjoying it! Don't have enough free time to get sick of it.

                Haven't played Civ III in three weeks. Not sure when I'll find the urge to play again.


                Went back to playing World War II Online. With the recent patches it really is a whole new game and finally worthy of play (after being released in June in alpha). Maybe--just maybe--CivIII will undergo a similar revitilization.

                Also quite a bit of Ghost Recon and Baldur's Gate II.

The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

                  Wishful thinking?!?! But I was hoping the same, yes!, however it all depends on Infogrammes, and the team at Firaxis, I mean, will Sid listen to his fans, or his investors!

                    May I propose you to do Myst and Myst II first? It is pretty story-based and all is a perfectly coordinated, as physics laws. Beware though, Riven (Myst II) isn't for whiners or those who let go easily mental work... It is said most people let go at the first really harder puzzle to understand.

                        I'm playing CTP2, HoMM3 and SMAC/X (multiplayer).

                        Civ3? Is still on my HD but ... it doesn't involve me!!!! I don't know why.

                          Two words. Max, Payne. And Ra2, Colonization (I kid you not), EE, AvP2, MechWarrior 4, Serious Sam, Diablo II.

                          Oh, and Civ3.

                          I have no staying power - but I can multitask.

                            As well as playing Civ 3, i have been playing:

                            Thief 1, Thief 2, System Shock 2, (all first person thinking games), and Stronghold.
                            But im still playing Civ 3 as well.
                            I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

                              I haven't been playing a lot of those games lately.

                              Playing civ3 when at home, SMAC when at my parents' place in Berlin. SMAC is more well-balanced, it's less of an experience than Civ3 though, since the latter is still new

                                Funny thing...
                                I got EU2 and civ3 for Christmas - Initially I was really looking forward to civ3, but due to the reports here, I cooled on the idea of playing civ3 - even to the point of asking that if I was only getting one game, I wanted EU2.

                                All I can say is that EU2 is an incredible, deep game, and it has hooked me. I'm sure that eventually I will find things that I will not like about it, but at the same time, there is a lot to learn about EU2, due to its depth, so I can see myself spending the time to learn it.

                                Stronghold is a lot of fun too... For the moment, I have no desire nor the time to play civ3.
