Could have become "game-of-the-year" games...but didn't

I'm just basing mine on my own opinion, i.e. "What could have been a kickass game but wasn't." Otherwise Civ3 would have been an inappropriate choice, since it was game of the year for many magazines. "Well, we gave Civ a 91% because it was a fantastic game, and we gave CivII a 94% because it had even better graphics than Civ, so we're giving CivIII a 98% for having even better graphics than CivII!"

Also I I missed MP (

Yeah, the AI was weak for both your units and the ones it controlled. MP would have been excellent in that game, the possibilities for different assault tactics would have made it interesting.
But alas. It could have been a game-of-the-year.
