Well-deserved, I would say, even if SMR is not quite what it should have been. Perhaps Sid could use his prestige to move Take Two to make a minimal additional investment in SMR.

Interesting that while Civilization, Pirates & even Railroad Tycoon are mentioned, there is not one word about SMRR -- everyone must be very ashamed of it.
Deserving of a lifetime achievement, sure. As Founding Partner and Director of Creative Development at Firaxis, proud of his work on SMRR ... probably not so much.

Kinda neat. Wonder if he can run SMRR with that rig?

I wounder if he could play my Florida Gold 20 X 20 map. His eyes might pop out.

Should be able to, I did. Didn't attempt those Victory Conditions, but hey..
