I was watching an episode of Stargate Atlantis today out of boredom. I`m not really a fan as I find the stories are a very predictable formula...
But then I watched one episode called `The Game`. It was about 2 guys of the regular team who find an Atlantis computer and start playing a game that`s very much like Civilization. They have to mine resources and trade etc. They play it for quite a while setting up their options and how the people look and one even had his face plastered in the game as the `benevolent` ruler.
Then, after a while they find out that the Civs are REAL and have to go to the planet and deal with all the hassle of trying to make peace with two Civs that totally hate eachother because of them and want war!
I thought it was a pretty funny watching the two main guys argue about trading Citrus fruits and cheating! Cool episode.
