Keep in mind they are two VERY different beasts, though. I prefer AC myself over any other Civ title, but if you go that route make sure to also get the Alien Crossfire expansion pack - it adds a tremendous amount of cool features and races to the game and it's dirt cheap at gog.com The remake of Colonization based on Civ IV didn’t get great reviews at the time but patched up is also a lot of fun and different enough that you might like it even if the other titles in the series are not your cuppa tea. It's also got a lot less of a learning curve if you've never played a Civ game before so it might be a good title to start with.
