Cool Mmmm, only used copies on Amazon...

And it's been twelve years since it was released. Seeing as Sierra has left ESA, is this game still protected?

I'd love to get this one. Horseman? Please?

Yeah, but +/- $40,-!!

When I bought this one in store it was something like €5,-

Caesar 3 probably won't go over €10,- in stores (if found)
AND Caesar 4 MIGHT come between €20,- and €35,- these days.. (@ best)

Like are they not scamming the deal??

Cool How's this for bad translation software?

This is a description from a French website:

Quote:
You know Caesar? Already three years ago, you incarnated the owner of a small province of avid Italy of expansionism, but for that it was necessary as well as possible to manage a city on the basis of nothing, provided with rather important savings. As in Sim City, you were to like the population by carrying out judicious choices, while placing the good masonries at the good places and especially by arranging them in such a way that they are used the ones for the others. Eh well, in Caesar 2, you will not have really the impression to deal with new software, but rather version 1.1, the actions to be carried out so much resemble each other…
:laugh: place the good masonries at the good places, now, you hear?!

My grandmother is going on a world cruise in January-April. If you can wait that long I'll have her bring my copy to South Africa. (no manual though)

People pay a shocking amount of money for some of these old games, I got a copy of Caesar 2 for about £3 and that was a few years ago….I think I still have it laying around somewhere.

I remember it's pretty easy to bulid a rich, well-run city/province, however trying to get a few homes upgraded to max is a pain in the arse.
