2K's Firaxis trifecta for 2006

by Alan Rose { Apr 13th 2006 at 12:55PM }

2K Games has announced they will publish three new titles this year from Civilization IV developer Firaxis Games. The first Civ4 expansion, Warlords, was revealed last month, but Sid Meier is also planning to return to his roots with Railroads!, an update on his classic Railroad Tycoon series. Lastly, Firaxis will be collaborating with Stronghold developer Firefly Studios on CivCity: Rome, in which you'll be able to simulate ancient Roman life on an unprecedented scale.

Warlords and CivCity are due out this summer, while Railroads! is expected in the fall.

Who wants Railroad Tycoon? I want them to localize and release A-Train X for the 360 in this country! (Of course it needs to come in Japan first. :P)

CivCity sounds interesting. I've been playing CivIV like a crack addict the past couple of months, and I used to play Sim City the same way years ago, so if it's a kind of mix of those two then it's a must-have for me.

and of course I'm going to have to check out the Warlords expansion.

Where is Alpha Centauri 2? we got the alien expansion like 5 years ago, and that was it. It was the best game Firaxis or Sid Meier ever made, hands down. I really hope they are working on a follow up, it would make my life complete, at least for a little bit ;D
