Gold is Galactic Civilizations II + the Dark Avatar expansion.

Ultimate is everything in Gold + the Twilight of the Arnor expansion

I'm thinking about getting GalCivII, but I want to know if it is better than GalCivI.  I have GalCivI and I fall asleep while playing it.  Tried turning off the music to play music of my choosing but I miss hearing the game effects.  Plus, the graphics could be better.

I am relatively new to the strategy genre.  Other strat game I have I Sid Meier's Civ V, which is quite good.

But I love scifi, space, etc.  I want GalCiv II!  I am going to get it.  Should I??

aeligos, IMHO GC2 (especially Twilight of the Arnor)  is better than GCI.

Look for sales, if my memory is ok, there was a chance to buy GC2:UE for 6 EUR or $ or something like that. I bought mine for, well, 4 $, as attachment to games magazine

I've never played GC1. I have to say I love GC2 though. I've played Gold Edition for the last year or two and just ordered Ultimate and plan to sell the Gold to a friend.

Oh, by the way, does GalCiv II have commentary?  For example, is there a robot voice announcing certain events as you play?

No, but that would be pretty cool.

You will definitely love GC2.
