Fun, Fun, Fun!

These games are so fun!
Bought a few copies for friends and family.
AOE1 is For people who have time, it isn't the quickest of games
and the graphics seem o.k., but this is an old game.
I have played less on AOE1 than AOE2 / AOE2 Conquerors:
AOE2 has quite good graphics, not as good as the new AOE3, but it 'looks' 3D. The campaigns and different scenarios are really fun and good plots.
The scenario editors have lots of options, most of which are shown in the editor - BUT you must know what you are doing - if you can't get your head around the triggers etc. it's difficult to make your own scenario/campaingns.
The gameplay is quite addictive, good ideas and ways of collecting different recources to build with - eg. different maps have fish, sheep, boar or turkeys which can be used for food, and the different trees change to different places e.g. Black forest and Yucatan.
Many different units and technologies, and unique technologies and bonuses to civilisations - which creates many tactics and ways of trying to crush your opponent, and counterattacking.
All in all, it's definitely 5-star

Addicted!

My teen aged daughter is totally addicted to it and won't stop playing. Great game and easy to use. If you don't know if you like this sort of thing then start with the free trial versions available on the 'net. All the disks installed with no problems on the Vista platform (although the AofE free trial from the 'net doesn't). |

Excellent

I have played all C&C's and many more strategy games. This package is the best I have come across. I bought Crysis and Call of Duty 4 at the same time of buying this game, but have yet to start them because of this game. Never played AoE before, can't put it down know, still playing for the past 3 months. I am not going to go on about the game itself as only people who are interested in these types of games will be bothering anyway. To those people - it is fantastic, but be warned, it will run off with your life!:-) |
