Well, theres a few (Bear in mind the fact I'm 16, and really haven't been able to play MOO or anything like that). The Metal Gear series has always had very good strategic play which I like, probably more so (IMO) than splinter cell. One of my old favourites is the sims (I know. I need help) Because, I like to be god, yet have no actual responsibility like Black and White needs. The game that had the biggest impact on me was probably the first game I ever played, Dogfight on the Amiga. it crashed constantly, the graphics were ok at the time but dated awfully, but it was such fun to control every aspect of the plane. Currently I'm enjoying City of Heroes. Not much great about it in terms of graphics (new update hopefully fixing that

), but you're a superhero. End of. You're a superhero and you beat things up, it's great. Gotta recommend that game.
And here is the part that was as inevitable as Agent Smith is predictable, GalCiv2. Best 4x I've ever played BAR NONE. (go away civ4 people, leave me alone!), it's just more fun, and the ship designer is amazing, and about to get better. And the graphics, wow. If you've seen that 1 million pixel ship yet, you just KNOW this thing won't date until the ps4 is out. (Don't hold me to that quote though

) The tech tree is good to understand, and the AI gives someone like me (I'll make no allusions to being hardcore or l33t here, just alrightish) a good, fun challenge. I ENJOY being beaten senseless by an AI that doesn't cheat, it just outsmarts me.
GalCiv2 For The Win!
