Re: compare with the big budgets like CIV3
The 'just one more turn' factor in SE:4 is IMHO close to being on par with Heroes of Might and Magic. I'm not saying Homm is better, they are totally different games. But I've logged many hours in both these games and when it comes to 'just one more turn' they both manage to hook me every time!
I have Civ2:ToT and It doesn't compare. personally I find it much easier to say 'no' in Civ2 than the other two games. Alpha Centauri falls somewhere between Civ and SE4, but slightly closer to SE4 and heroes than civ.
Just one more 'opinion' for the sandbox!
Cheers!
P.S. If I go a bit further back in time there was another game that managed to 'hook' me with the 'one more turn' factor,.. it was called Conquest of the new world: Deluxe Edition (a DOS game) I would love to see an updated 'windows' Version of that game! Nuf said.
