    you know, they have open source TA remakes available now, with new/less imba units. i would play any of you suckers if someone fancied a game. can't imagine that ping would play as bad a part as it would in an fps or something (i'm in australia).

    Well all's not well
    But I'm told that it'll all be quite nice.

    I went and dug up AoE II last night, and just like before, was stunned when I looked up and all of a sudden an hour had passed.

    I didn't realize there was a patch to run SMAC for Intel Macs until this weekend. The only problem is that it crashes when you try to save, so you have to finish a game at once. But man, that's been devastating.

    Just because I don't know where else to bring it up... was anyone else ever addicted to Star Control II? I think i may even try to find a way to get it to install on vista. Best game...

    I almost posted SCII in here the other day. Then I realized it wasn't really a strategy game. Game was so good though.

    I bought Civilization 3 yesterday for $5. I've never played but seemed like it would be a good pastime at work.

    I decided to bust this out last night at 11. Next thing I know it is 3 am.
