    Meh...I only liked Serf City. If anyone knows how to get it as freeware and get it to run on XP, let me know! I used to emulate the DOS environment in XP about 4 or 5 years ago, but could never get the game to save properly...(yes i know it's b/c of conflicting file systems).

    I think the last one I played was 4... Or was it 5? Anyway, it sucked... Still, willing to take a look at 6. Not going to buy it without trying it first though... :p

    So what happened to the remake they were making of the original Settlers, btw? That sounded interesting :D

    i guess its all personal opinion, i liked 4 much better than 3. same with the buying after trying thing.

    I heard about the original remake, but i'm pretty sure that it is going to be around mid next year before its due to come out(someone confirm).

    Didn't they have a remake of Settlers 2? I've seen that around.

    And I had no idea there was even a Settlers 5.
