Well, if I ever see it on store shelves I might buy it. But after this fucking long I've lost interest and now I've got games lined up to keep me busy for the next four or five months.

The game went gold at the end of January. They said the game will be out on the 25th/26th of Januray
Devolution is quite as natural as evolution, and may be just as pleasing, or even a good deal more pleasing, to God. If the average man is made in God's image, then a man such as Beethoven or Aristotle is plainly superior to God, and so God may be jealous of him, and eager to see his superiority perish with his bodily frame.

The first release date was in 1999 IIRC.

Yeah...actually I do remember hearing that.

Probably just sorta made it go away when I heard it existing and not being just a vaporware rumor.

then again it's getting close to being that anyway(multiplayer, my ass)

Yea, oops I meant Feburary. My mistake, for some odd reason I typed January even though I knew it was Fed.

Literally when it was finally to come out they say Multiplayer was not perfected. Just a grip given how the game is structured, I don't see why Multiplayer was needed or what was so difficult about the few bug in it.

did anyone actually use multiplayer in moo II? With all that time between turns, it always seemed too cumbersome to be a good multiplayer game.
