For anyone who has an Android phone, Plants vs. Zombies is free today on the Amazon App Store.  I would recommend installing it to the SD card if your phone has the ability.  Otherwise the app will take up 75MB of precious onboard storage.

One of their next releases will be Alpha Centauri. In the unlikely case that any of you haven't played, make sure to use that chance to play it.

Oooh, UU1&2? I got the Ultima Collection a long time ago, but it didn't have those.
Happy day! :)

Woah. 


Is it just me, or do some of these games not seem so old?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

SMAC can never get old!

(They sell a Win7 compatible version on Amazon for 4 pounds. If you can stomach having to use DVDs. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sid-Meiers-Alpha-Centauri-Complete/dp/B001RIYNF2/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1307077861&sr=1-1 - should be available in the US too.)

Habbaku

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I bought it because of this deal and I had a craving for some city building.  It's not bad, the city building aspect is pretty much the same as SimCity and the graphics are pretty.  There are some minor annoyances with the way the roads snap when building them and though i think the game is good, it feels like it is missing something, not enough soul or something.
