Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri™ Planetary Pack

One of the best games ever. Great gameplay, deep tech tree, many factions to choose from, there's just so much to love here. If you have any love at all for the 4X turn based strategy genre, then you've already played this game, but on the off chance you haven't then get this and play it as soon as possible...you won't be sorry you did.

More than 20 years on and this is still my favourite game, alongside CIV VI. I would love for a remake/expansion of this to be made. I've had my fingers crossed for years.

This has been the best Strategy game ever made since it came out in 1999. The effort and quality put into this game is just phenomenal. I truly hope , someday, EA lets FIraxis remake this with hexagons and updated graphics simply for the sake of us old time Strategy game lovers. Money is to be had !! How can they not cut the red tape and make an agreement with FIraxis!! Cmon already :)

... mostly thanks to all the datas you can read : real quotes, game specific quotes, the tech tree, the ability to create a wide range of units for different purposes, the videos when you finish a special project (which remind me of Civ II),... I hoped for quite a long time there will be a sequel to this game which replaced Civilization and Colonization at that time. But as Colonization "IV" with the engine of Civilization IV was quite a mistake, I'm glad they didn't waste the licence with a useless title. The game is good by itself, and don't need much more except enhance graphics, and they're still pretty decent. At this price, if it is the kind of game you like, give it a shot and run few games with different factions with different starting abilities, you may stay there for a while.

What a game. I have played this so many times. It is a strategic gem.
