Reminds me of when our Third Reich games descended into us just quoting rules at one another. The attack on Paris would be followed by a massive argument over air combat rules ie 1.234 says... but 1.235 means... Turns out the allies were playing 2nd edition and the axis 3rd. oh well.

Kingmaker? Now that game's so simple we made it into a drinking game called Drink Maker. We got rules such as "Drink when there's a plague" and "Chug when a royal heir buys it," etc. 
Sixth Fleet, now you are getting warm.

I just bought the most recent edition of Third Reich, hopefully it is good
my previous edition was first so I figured it was time to upgrade
Kingmaker was good (And I have it) also, but I don't play it all the time

Down with the King is also a delightful game of political and court intrigue.

All PC game players are superior to all Console game players.
And Xbox and PS2 players are superior to people who play Gamecube.
The only people below the gamecube people are people who play gameboy. The lowest of the low is Pokemon.
People who play grognard, historically accurate wargames on boards are arguably superior to those who do so on a PC.
The Sims is a matter of some, hm, controversy.
Now did you get that straight??

Nice.
I may need index cards or something to keep this hierarchy straight in my dopey, simple mind...
