OMG! More Railroads!

Many of my favorite games have been made by Sid Meier, Civilization, Civilization 2, Alpha Centauri, the list goes on. Amongst them is Railroad Tycoon 2 (I never played the first one) I have just found out they are putting out a newer more awesome version, with fiddly time consuming bits cut out, only pure strategy and cut throat economics are left.

Pure GOLD!

I find the fact that I play with this stuff, except as a real life version no deterrent to look forward to acquiring this newest Sid gem!!!

I don’t know building track, making big rail decisions, buying industry, running other companies out of business... it sounds awesome!!!!

I mean I am part of driving big decision making decisions about the actual track that gets laid and a lot of the iterative processes underneath and behind that, roughly speaking, its also significantly slower moving.

*sigh*

I feel a little disappointed about how excited I am about a computer game to play with stuff I play with all day… I believe this may qualify me to be a consummate geek of some description :p
