GameMaster, the sims is another one of those "Playing God" Strategy games, where you run (or ruin) the life of a "SIMulated" person, hence the nbame "The Sims", try tkaing away theri toilets and having some fun, or making them filthy rich, extremely rude (or extremely nice) and having fun, it's the perfcect way to contrl a "person" and I love it.

As for Civ II & Civ III having beter "Tactics" Manasecret, yes that they do, but I find that when swithcing between Civ II and Civ I, one a 1.7GHz P4, there isn't much fo a dirreance, and the entire layout of "Civ I" was too mucyh eye-candy and "MUltimedai CD-ROM" and less gameplay, that was my problem, it's not a bad game, in fact it's great, but it ain't the same, and MArio 64 Vs. Mario 1, *I always p[ut Mario Bros. 1 in a1st place hands down when comapriing those two, tythere's no contest, as far as SMS fgoes, I've got to play it and jude it more, I'
m less interestind in Controls that tkae a month to learn (not master, learn) and Graphics, than I am in Gameplaynad fun (I spend $50.00 on Fun, not on eye-candy), my point was that Strategy games are going 3 nowdays and it's hurnting them, AOE's nex "Rendition" should be beter tbu the classics will remain just that, CLASSIC.
