It's also definetely COOL to play KoDP which has "an infinite number of
polygons", on a GeForce4 Ti 4200. Albeit ironically.. but it does shows the
water effect on Morrowind jaw-droppingly beautiful.
Sid Meir's Alpha Centauri has the best diplomacy concept ever been perfectly
executed. I really became familiar with fanaticsm of the arabs religious
faction, hive-mind chinese faction etc. Such a pity I always cant find time
to get the expansion. I must admit SMAC is better done than even the
predecessor, Civ3+expansion.
Here's to hoping that Mr Duncan will somehow find his way here to spread the
glory of Sword of The Samurai too.
