Strategy Simulation Game

[Smartyman 0]

Got a question. I have Windows XP and I need some games since the ones I have aren't compatible. I prefer strategy simulation games. The one thing I hate though is games that stutter when you move due to the overload of polygons. One game that comes to mind is Tropico. I own Tropico and love it, except whenever I scroll along the map it stutters and I hear the cd-rom inside my computer going VRRRRRRMMMM. The other thing I hate is bad graphics. I hate it when I find a game that works on Windows 95 because that just tells me that the graphics won't be as good. Thus, I need a Simcity type game before summer vacation is over. I have cash and I need a game, so all I need to know is which game (remember, it must be xp compatible).

Well the summer is over! isn't it? But anyway try Ceaser 3, Pharaoh (and Pharaoh: Cleopatra) and don't forget Zeus and the Zeus expansion pack (Posidon).
