Has anyone ever heard of Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, It's an older game with a Civ 2-like engine. It's actually pretty nice. Anyway, the technology we could see in the future may be represented in that game. Things like Polymorphic Software and even self aware computers! What do you think? |

that game has so many tech things to research they were bound to get a few right. On that note i think they tried to go for some realism so they put possible advances. |

A wonderful game, IMO the best Sid Meier has created. And of course some of the technology in the game is bound to coincide with future technological marvels. After all the source for both is the same - contemporary science fiction. For the curious among you here is a collection of the quotes accompanying the technological discoveries in the game. |

Perfect game. I loves the start of the Peacekeepers quote. And the tech was simply amazing. Though the expansion seems a tad stupid and combat oriented. |
