[quote]Now - I'm curious if somebody could tell me where I should buy a serial number for GalCiv2 now that I already have it, and also, where can I find the details of the updates? [/quote] Just purchase and download the game via Impulse. You will receive a valid serial number and be able to use Impulse to download the updates. There are a number of improvements that have been made with successive updates.

I'll put in two cents about MOO3 as well. I bought the game for $1.00 in a bargain bin, and it was not a bargain at that. I tried the "strawberry" mod because that was supposed to make it better (according to some forums). But I felt like it was a game that one is supposed to watch rather than play. And it wasn't fun to watch.
Locomotion - I was a big fan of Roller Coaster Tycoon II. I was expecting Locomotion to be just as engrossing. But I just couldn't get into it.
