> When SimEarth came out, I spent hours and hours just rereading the thick paper manual of how it all worked, because the only places I could play it on the disks were in the computer lab after school, or for an hour a day on the home computer.

Civ II is the one that sticks in my head… always bought games at an egghead software 4 hours from home (and usually a couple days before my family would drive back anyway)
