Based on the title of this thread, I was disappointed that the title of his memoir did not end in an exclamation mark, but then was happy to discover that it is indeed titled "Memoir!"

Only a few of the games had bang in the name, e.g. Sid Meier's Civilization or Sid Meier's Railroad Tycoon are bangless.

Still, I find the cover of this book so delightful!

SMAC is also bang-free (and the best games IMHO).

Some how Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri was a 4x game that had one of the most interesting stories / atmospheres in video game history, even if it was just from a few clips and quotes.

Flip the "i" in "Centauri" upside down and there's your bang.

“Sid Meier's Alpha Centaur!” sounds like a game I would play, but also like a brand of ebook smut.

There can be only one (centaur).
