My Version 2.25 celebrates its 10th birthday on 15 September. And I've still never reached 1800! Too much time testing and theorising.... Robin Patterson 20:12, 15 Sep 2004 (UTC)

The first two paragraphs appear to be a cut & paste job from here. However, the text in question was written by someone named "David Gust", and the article edit was done by a Dgust (this is the user's only contribution to WP). Copyright issue? Caknuck 08:30, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Disagree with this

"Both games pit the player as a godlike leader of an embattled civilization" - I don't believe this is accurate for Colonization. Instead, you're quite specifically *not* a god (you answer to your soverign), you're not the leader of a whole civilisation (just the colony), and in any case your civilisation is definitely not "embattled" - you're out there to rape and pillage, and you do a lot of it.

I agree. Bad description -- Zagrebo 19:28, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

That particular paragraph mostly talks about Civilization anyway and has no actual bearing on this article. It should be removed or totally rewritten. MacMoney 14:18, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
