    I realized that i really really like just building little medieval cities, I recent;y got Black & White 2 from a friend and I just spend hours building little cities in it, are there any other games with this kind of or even better city building? I've been looking forward to Settlers: Rise of an Empire which i just learned about today, just curious if I'm missing out, Populous and Civilization games don't seem to get me going as easily as some people, just not a fan of them :(

    I'd mention The Settlers but you already know that one heh. Have you tried any of the Stronghold games? They are pretty decent, though not really a city builder, it's a big part of the game.

    Yea i used to play the Sim City genre, but its lost its flavour too, lol i know, i'm quite picky about this right now, just because i dont have a surplus of cash... I'm really really looking forward to the new settlers game but i'm not sure how that will play out, Spore is looking pretty amazing to me too... SPRING OF 08 BABY!
