ahem, there is a galciv forum here(not too active but a couple good threads) - http://apolyton.net/forums/forumdisp...s=&forumid=174

Am I being suckered in by the marketing machinery here or what?!

well, they do make it sound really good. everyone that has played the beta version has been very positive(i don't think i've seen a negative post), so i'm starting to believe what they say about it. even if only half is true it'll be an awesome game.

There are lots of potentially cool games being developed here. If only one is any good we'll all be happy.

Syberia was an interesting game demo.

It's an adventure game of the type that hasn't been seen in a while.

I haven't played the full game, but the demo was interestingly different.

I think that is out now......got a good review at gamespy.

Hmm, then when my plan comes into operation, not only will I get an extra hour's sleep in the morning, but I will inconveniance the Canadians too!

Actually, it's not too different from my normal routine.

get soul calibur II on march 27 2003.

You'll need a japanese playstation II, Gamecube or Xbox because it wont come out on US until august and I know you wont be able to wait that long...


trust me.... u will want it.

getting a mod chip is also a good idea, but dont mod xbox.. that bans you from using xbox live

I d/l'ed the demo for Splinter Cell the other day. WOW! What a surprise! This game is much better than I expected it to be. The full game is being released today in theU.S., I'll be buying it before the weekend.

This is a very fun, atmospheric game. Give the demo a try, you'll probably end up buying it!

i played simcity2000 several times, enough to make me satisfied with it. First i played just to figure out how to get a city going successfully. Tehn i played attempting to get different types of cities - high population, very dense center, lots of subways, etc. Eventually i gave up on it, largely because the inability to build anything that resembled a reall city, due to the limited number of zone types, the tight zone proximity requirements, etc.

I have certainly played enjoyed Civ 2 aq great deal, and have played it vastly more than SC2000. OTOH I think of SC as more fruitful in its impact on gaming than Civ. Not only did SC inspire the City building genre, but Sid Meiers has indicated that it inspired Civ to a great degree as well. I certainly prefer the "Simcity-ish" aspects of Civ 2.

I never bought SC3000. I believe i am fortunate in that respect. Not that SC3000 was bad, but that the way Maxis has done incremental improvements, SC3000 was disappointing to a lot of SC2000 fans, and SC4 is disappointing to at least some SC3000 fans, but the combination of all the incremental improvements will make SC4 enough of a jump to satisfy an SC2000 fan.

I'll throw a plug in for Hitman2.The Metal Gear Solid of contract killing but since I never played MGS, I can't comment

Very interesting game.Open ended missions with MANY ways of completion.Quite abit different than anything I have played in past.The real aim is to avoid enemys rather than just mass extermination.Stealth is huge in this game.All manner of sneaky stuff..Oddly addictive and hours just seem to dissappear while playing.Beautiful graphics and a great musical score top off an intriguing storyline.

I thought Hitman had potential......but it had too many bugs and rough edges. I must have missed the release of Hitman2.....maybe I'll check it out.
