Civilization IV
I have a new addiction.

I've always been into stratagy games (part of why I love football,) I fear this one could take over. I downloaded it last night and lost about 4 hours of my life to it already.

For those who don't know you get to build an empire from ground up, starting with a village. As it goes on, you develop different cultural and technological aspects of your community. Other civilizations are in the mix and you can either go to war with them or create treaties with them.

Anybody else into this sort of gaming?

Love RTS's... The classics were awesome in their day... Warcraft, StarCraft, MOO2, goes on and on...

Civ's were cool at one time... Didn't think much of Civ4.

Been playing Company of Hero's with Cash... Good game, not sure how long I'll enjoy it however. We'll see.

So far into it, I'm really enjoying it... but I haven't gotten into any deep military stratagy. That's really what I'm into it for.

Get the old school StarCraft... You'll get your stratagy. And then, when you feel you aren't going to get any better at it....

Play mister clicky finger after he practices for a couple hours. Yeah...

Yeah... Cash... Back in the day I watched him play Warcraft... Never played against him, just watched him play...

Mr. Clicky Finger... That's all you here through the whole game... Click, click, click, click... Non stop, always doing something... Never stopping something new is hitting you from somewhere or he's getting new resources.
