Gaming update

So I think I've decided that I really like city simulators. They're slow-paced, you get to create something that looks really cool, and they don't tend to be system hogs.

Civ IV just didn't really capture my attention, so two days later I picked up Caesar IV. It's good, although it certainly has its flaws, especially compared to 1701. The colors are very brown and blah, as opposed to 1701's vibrant and cartoon-like qualities. Also, the cities in Caesar IV have been very space-limited so far, so you feel fairly constrained to building in a very set fashion.

Next on the list to check out: City Life. The screenshots make it look really cool. I downloaded the demo and will check it out tonight.
