Let us also not forget the spin-off Woodruff and the Schnibble of Azmiuth, surely a contender for most nonsensical PC title before Maximus IV Abraham Strong – Space Mercenary came along.

I got as far as colonization and then my ability to concentrate on the text wavered… Ahh a goodly number of hours spent playing that classic.

Gobliiins is one of the reasons justifying the existence of France ;-)

Togheter with a friend, we finished the first 2 games from the series. Anyway, damn you for making me feel old. :)

I will sue the 3D indroducer guy in the Hague for crimes against humanity. To the Scheissemobil!

Anyway, I liked Goblins, Woodruff and their general style.

[...] Goblins 4? Are you kidding? Alec is deadly serious. Fury Of the Sunwell!. Inevitable WoW patch notes. Far Cry 2 looks interesting. Shakycam bollocks. Jim reposts Batman trailer, also discusses game. Starcraft 2 trailer bonanza. Thank GameTrailers, tbh. Lovely Red Alert 3 images. [...]

I just want to say that Colonization is in my top five games ever. I love it more than Civilization and really wish it would get a sequel(though gave up hope of that some time ago, though if Goblins can get one now I guess anything is possible) even a spiritual successor would do. No other game that uses the same subject matter has come close.

Anyone else like Colonization more than Civ?

Discworld Noir is the best Disworld, there’s no doubt for me!

I think the same about Monkey Island 4, though. ;)

On-topic: I’m not sure why they’re reviving the series. Is there any need for it? Why not make something totally new? I don’t think people would be afraid…

We’re not all so weak-willed, I’m sure. I’m playing through every Deadly Room of Death alone if it kills me! Again and again and again.

Firstly: Colonization is fantastic. The lack of appearence of it’s trade/stock/resource model in later civs (or any other game for that matter) is a super-disappointment.

Secondly: I am a great task master! If I dispatch you to make my dinner, will you do so?

Thirdly: Remember people, this is the age of the internet. If you get stuck I imagine you, like myself, just flick up GameFaqs and promise your naughty self that you definately won’t do it again… until 2 minutes later, that is :( So is an easier difficulty all that important? Back in the day of mega-hard games that’s usually all you had and you’d be damned if you were going to be defeated by it, so you kept on it until you either bought a new one or you completed it. Ahh, I hate the internet some days :(
