i can give you about 8000 suggestions, and just to give an example, civilization was a board game first. a lot of empire/economic pc games play out strikingly similar to board games. for example, railroad tycoon. tons of it could be contrasted with the game 'age of steam', which has just been modestly adapted to become 'railroad tycoon: the board game' by eagle games. age of steam drew heavily from the 18XX railroad games, which also predate the railroad tycoon video game.

AOE III just came out also. I need a new computer before I can run either this or Civ IV.

If there was a picture there I can't see it. I have most image sites blocked so only see at most half the pics people put up. And I have avatars turned off.

Anyone gonna try City of Villians? I thought about it. I haven't been addicted to an MMORPG in 4 or 5 years.

Gave up on my WOW account. Mostly becuase I simply dont have the time to develop lasting in game friendships and I got no real life friends who play with any consistancy. Due to this I was forced into pickup group situations every time I played, but with a typical play session lasting less then 90 minutes, there simply arent any group things to do, especially with a level 60 unguilded rogue!

Did send a friend 1300 gold though before I cancelled, which he probably never got becuase he hardly ever logged in.

Being an unguilded rogue is really shitty. Especially if you weren't on a PVP server. Overpopulation of rogues made level 60+ pretty sucky unless you were in a fairly mature guild. That's at least half of why i started my druid.

I myself am a recovering UO-a-holic. I still miss pwning n00bs though.

No game will ever match UO's PvP system. This game http://www.darkfallonline.com/ looks like it could be close. I am definitely trying it.

I cried when they ruined PvP in UO. What a sad sad time. What was it like 5 years ago now that you could run around PKing everything. Oh those were the days. I RoXXoR j00!
