Yes it is very much an age thing, you have grown up with the latest PC games with all their flash/slick graphics that are just not necessary for us "old boys" to enjoy a strategy game because the stratergy is what is important to us not the look of the game, if it is the case that many people consider CM out of date then PzC is positively ancient! LOL
As an analogy, it is the same with many modern films, most younger people will not go to see a film unless it has had many millions spent in CGI (and that fact is
very prominent in the advertising) and acting/story-lines now very much take a back seat, where as us old boys can see through the flashy scenes and laugh at the bad acting and terrible (or non existent) story lines!
When you say after the film that you thought it was poor, they look at you as if you were mad and say "but the explosions were wicked and those flying monsters were awesome! :rolleyes:
I know, i know i am a dinosaur and i can't even fly!
Anyway we thought VM at 31 was the youngest player, you beat him by quite a margin. :)
