-----------------------

Mine are Alpha ccenturi, because of the unit creation tools
and Rebelstar for the hotseat games

Thanks H&K

Chaos on the Spectrum, obviously.
The original multiplayer party game.

my vote is for Civ 4....

probly laser squad and lords of chaos tied for the top spot
had some good hotseat games of both

Civ 4 ... and I haven't heard of the other ones ...

You dont have X-Com: UFO Defense listed, you monster!

Civ 4/ The original XCOM

You dont have X-Com: UFO Defense listed, you monster!


Yes he does. It's original title was UFO : Enemy Unknown. It was renamed to X-Com: Ufo Defense when it was released in the US.

However, I'm pretty sure
RebelStar Rangers

should be Rebelstar Raiders.

From the first list, I would have to choose Civ 2 as it's the only one I've ever played.

From the second list, I'd find it very hard to choose between Laser Squad and Rebelstar.

Alpha Centauri / Apocalypse.

@Gab, Yes it should, dont know why Ive Typed that in wrong ;(

Laser squad was great but XCom was better, it was the same + more. Terror of the deep was also great as it was the same but different. They were TOP games that engrossed me for a long time.

Out of the entire list, I've only played Civ 4.

I've not fully decided if I prefer Civ4 to Civ3. But it's certainly good enough to beat the others.

As for the other list, I prefer UFO:Enemy Unknown (despite the bugs).

Civ4 / Aplha Centauri close second.
UFO: Enemy Unknown / Apacalypse close second.

Out of that list I'm going to say the first X-Com. But I don't see Master of Orion 2 on there!

I think moo2 edges out xcom ( and civ 1 & 2 ), which I invested way too many hours of my life in..

X-Com 2!

Merv the Merciless.

You know I've got Ufo Apocalypse sitting on my shelf. Bought it a long time ago and just never played it for some reason. Should I?

Also how got is laser squad nemesis?

Hello.

@Toby: Merv The Merciless? If that had been on the list it would have had my vote. What a truly manic and genius game that was.

But for the record, I'd have to say Alpha Centauri cos I think it's the only one I've played.

Goodbye.

I really enjoyed apocalypse, Although it took me ages since i didnt realise you could investigate the crashed UFOs! (even though i'd played through UFO and UFO:TFTD).

I really want to play civ4 :D

i didnt realise you could investigate the crashed UFOs!
doh! ;-)

The first time I played Xcom1 (Ufo:Enemy Unkown), I had put all the alien Alloys into one base, which promptly got attacked by the aliens. Doh

X-com was fun. Sad, that nothing made afterwards was as good as it.
