Am I the only person on this planet that loves 1602 AD and 1503 AD????!!!!

Yep...


I never played the second game, but the first one got very boring... I never got far into the game before deciding to uninstall it... I even gave it two tries...

I have one of those on my computer, but I have yet to try it out.... gaming takes so much of a person's time it's unbelievable!

I tried 1602AD, but it was far too hard for me
I might give it a whirl again some time later, when I have more time

outpost what a horrible game.

I liked the music and pace of 1602 ad, but i didnt find it all that gripping a game, i might go back to it someday.

Civ3

Although I do have a tendency to not play the really bad games, or at least ruthlessly suppress any memory of playing them. But no, playing Civ3 just made me bored and disappointed. Not sure if it's the worst I ever played, but definitely the most dissapointing.

Transport Tycoon Deluxe was excellent, I played it a few months ago and it still kicked ass. I have something of intersection building obsession, the crown jewel of intersections I built was a 4 lane 4 way any-any straight-through (not roundabout) intersection that worked with the dumbass train AI, tunnels and raised land everywhere. It took up about 4 normal screens. It could handle quite some train traffic. I had modified the game so the industries produced 10x as much, thus justifying 4 lane railway tracks everywhere (actually I used 6 lanes going to the entrances to some larger industry complexes). Mostly I didn't bother with the economic side of things and just tried to build networks that could handle ridiculous levels of production.

I'll add another black mark against Outpost..........a truly dreadful game.

I love that game. Had a lot of fun playing.

Pax was a good game, I still have it, It did have a ton of micromanaging and the AI was weak. Lots of tech.

Did I mention Birth of the Federation?
