A quick glance and remembrance suggests that MOO2 is the most interesting thing in the pack. And I already own it.

I was considering getting theme hospital (allein) moo2 (allein, not bad having an online copy) maybe heroes 3 full

I'm so tempted to buy so many things.

But the Steam sale is just around the corner, and my wallet can't take a pounding from both sides like last year.

Also, Geneforge series for $7.50. Any comments on that?

I got it a couple days ago when it was $3.75. I'm only about 5 or 6 hours into the first one so far and am really enjoying the story and setting, and between all five there must be at least 100 hours of gameplay, and hundreds more if you go for each faction in each game. They're also really hard, not to an unplayable extent, but if you build your character wrong you are screwed.

EDIT: And I post 4 minutes after the sale ends, but it's still 7.50!

Sale ended. Just as a sidenote, I realized that my SMAC has been updated. It contained what I thought to be too good to be true.

Yay! It's finally possible to have a working copy of SMAC + expansion for digital download. The only negative is EA getting a cut from a good game.

The expansion is good news.

The Sierra package was also well worth the money.

Is it?  Can it be?  I've never had the opportunity to play the expansion.  Excellent!

Argh, I just increased my game backlog again - I grabbed the awesome King of Dragon Pass,  and Constructor and Space Colony HD both of which I remember as being worth a gamble.  And I'm still considering one or more of the Wing Commanders and some of the indy games.

Agree MoO2 is one of the greatest games of all time, MoO1 has surprisingly good gameplay too.  Theme Hospital was reasonably fun and funny , I even fired up my copy again a couple years ago - not bad for a 15 year old game, although it's not  in the realm of the exalted MoO/Master of Magic/SMAC/X-Com.

Lords of Magic never grabbed me although the Special Edition/expansion was supposed to be an improvement.  There were some cool ideas in there but I didn't like it even as much as Age of Wonders let alone MoM.

I ended up passing the sales due to Steam sales coming...

The problem with those bundles is there are always 2 or 3 games I just don't want to touch or buy or even consider buying.
