I saw this game in Yongsan last weekend and I just had to buy it. If anyone else is familiar with the series and wants to give it a go, let me know. The great thing about this update is that you can now play on-line over the internet. |

Settlers II was a great game. So was Colonization and Civilization. |

Speaking of nostalgia, I have been getting down for the last 2 weeks with X-com again. Jesus that was a great game. I kinda feel like good turned based strategy is going a thing of the past outside of the Civ games and a little lover from Total War. |

Yeah, X-Com was a good series, made by a great programmer who began on the Spectrum over 20 years ago. I think the problem with Settlers II is that the Settlers series has always been most popular in Europe, especially German, and most people using this board are from North America. You've been missing out, guys! |

I wanna play terror but I can't seem to get any sound out of it. Tried using DOS box but it just locked it up. Any hints? The original runs like a dream for me. I am thinking of trying the third one but I dunno if I will like it as much. |
