Summary: Alien Crossfire
Review: Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire is the best strategy game I have played in a long time. A boost even from the simpler Civilization II and other programs in that series, it is fantastic to play and a lot of fun. I reccomend the Pirates to play. Hint: Use global warming to your advantage!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Computer Game I've Played
Review: Where can I begin with this game? For any Sci-fi fan, this game is for you. I picked up a copy of Alpha Centauri from one of my friends. And I instantly got hocked on it. The whole concept of this game is wonderful. Earth life is threatned so the UN sent the game charcters up into whole new solar system (which I read you can see from earth) to start a new life. But when the spaceship lost connection to earth and the captain was killed, panic broke out. You start a new game crash landing on Planet. The first priority is to build a defense for your new base. Throuout the game you have to comunicate with other factions ( people who were on the UN ship and have landed on Planet to), build new bases (expand) and base facilities), build up a military, and go to war. You get to chose from a wide varity of characters to chose from. A few examples are Chairman Yang of the Hive and Brother Lal of the Peacekeepers. Each Character has thier own personality. You my find some hard to work with (if you decide you want to work with them). Also, each charcter has their own opinon on how to govern Planet. And when I found the Alien Crossfire Expansion, I was evn more excited. More factions, techs, and projects. I think I've talked enough but if you have any questions about the game please e-mail me.
