Summary: Civ II - AWSOME Game
Comment: If you don't have a PC for gaming, this is the next best thing. Civ II is a great game and the Play Station version is spot on.
This may be the ultimate strategy game of all time and it definitely translates well on to the Play Station format.

Summary: I HAVE 1 GAME FOR THE PS1, THIS IS IT.
Comment:
First thing to do, raise luxury taxes, lower income taxes.
1 player.
Best strategy game ever.
If game load fails, buff disc.
Recommend playing tutorial first.
Educational, vis-a-vis cultural evolution.
Paying tribute to others speeds up progress.
First think tank to "PHILOSOPY" gets important freebie.
Later in the game, save after each turn or you will be sorry.
Cheat code; name a city _CasH (hold down R button while entering capital H).
If you like this game try the movie: The Sum of All Fears (Special Collector's Edition)
If you like this game try Super Nintendo P.T.O.
If you like this game try Allied General

Summary: Not as good as PC version
Comment: Let me start out by saying that I am a huge Civilization fan...but....the Playstation version does not hold a candle to the PC version. The PS screen is cloudy and difficult to see, especially your own cities growth numbers. It's difficult to determine whose winning a battle as the stamina bar is impossible to see. My absolute biggest problem w/ the PS version is not having "auto" control over settlers. On the PC game you can set settlers to auto so they go around building roads and mining etc.. You have to do it all yourself on playstation. Do you know how boring it is to build 5,000 roads w/ 20 settlers?? Some people want to micromanage every aspect, but there is zero strategy to be gained from controlling settlers yourself, zero. Why take this option away? I think this explains why they never made another version for the playstation. Civilization is a game that apparently must be played on a computer.

Summary: Elvis on the council????
Comment: I originally rented this game out of curiosity, and quickly got hooked! Ended up buying it because a 3-day rental isn't enough time to win here. The gameplay can take a while (depending on level chosen) but if you are looking to get your mind off the everyday routine for a couple of hours, this is a game that delivers. There are 21 different civilizations to choose from (Romans, Greeks, Mongols, Zulus etc.) that have no superiority over any others initially. After setting your tribal preferences you start off in the year 4000 B.C. with one settler unit and 0 gold pieces. How successful your tribe is depends largely on the site you choose for you first city and the development of the resources around it. Send out more units to explore the surrounding area and build more cities, and repeat. Every so often you will get the opportunity to meet with your "high council", who inform you how you are doing. One of the advisors is an Elvis impersonator who had me cracking up with laughter many times with his insights on citizens' happiness levels. Not to mention the satisfaction of attacking any other civilization that ticked me off at times. Definitely a game anyone into strategy games should own.

Summary: strategy pure and simple...
Comment: If your looking for a strategy game tht challenges you... this is it. Its not pretty to look at, terrible music, and this game takes a long time to beat at its maximum level. I found it challenging and my competitive nature would not allow me to let go until i figured it out. However this is number crunching at its highest point. Its easy to go thru the menues but difficult to master the systems. This game is only for strategy freak like me who love a challenge if your looking for action, graphics, or storyline dont bother. The price is right though, but Romance of the three kingdoms, nectaris, or command @ conquer, or even panzer or allied general have a little more to offer.
