Gammix: Ah. He teaches history at the high school I just graduated from and his teaching style is a lot like you described. He wanted to show us how stronger motivation contributed colonies' ability to win even though they were severely outnumbered. He set up a capture the flag game in which one team had far more people, but as the smaller team was starting to get tired he offered them a free homework pass for any one regular assignment if they could win. =P
Cool, sounds very interesting.

How did he pull off a capture the flag game in a small environment like a classroom without someone getting hurt? haha

Lol, I never said no one got hurt!

Jk, nobody got hurt. We went out to the soccer field.

EDIT: Just remembered. He also added a little while later that they didn't actually need to win - they only had to fight to a draw, as the colonies fought a defensive war.

THANKS Thiev!
I had to update the wishlist since Rayman 2 was kindly given to by Xyem :)

Magic Carpet - First time I saw it in my entire life, but I am highly curious about this game.

Sid Meier´s Alpha Centauri - I own a lot of Civilization titles, when you look at my steam library, you can see I own each Civilization except first and second. I never got opportunity to play it, since honestly, I didnt even know it existed! So I would love to get a chance to play this (according to lot of people) gem of strategy genre.

Stronghold - Heard a lot of good things about this game, pouring hot oil at enemies, throwing cows out of catapults...almost too good to be true.

Outcast - One of my friends explained this game to me like open-world stargate/GTA...in my book must have title :)

Lord of realms: Royal edition - This game was recommended to me by a lot of people, so I know it only by ear.

I also highly curious about Ultima Underworld, Wind Commander : Privateer, Spellforce series and Battle island platinum
