Pretty Cool, but not Starcraft

byZoMbY Jan 18, 2000
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Lots of depth, good graphics,
Cons Not as engrossing as Starcraft
Recommended it? Yes

Microsoft's latest attempt at making a RTS went over very well. There really isn't anything wrong with the game, just it doesn't seem as playable as Starcraft. Starcraft just had something about it that made me want to keep coming back to it, but this just doesn't have the same appeal. It has... Read full review »

Microsoft extending its monopoly into strategy games...

Pros Graphics, AI, complexity
Cons Opponent AI,
Recommended it? Yes

I can't believe it, but Microsoft did something right!

Hands down, this is the best multiplayer strategy-based war-game. If you liked the first Ages, you will LOVE this one. I would like to point out several aspects of this finely-tuned piece of artwork that put Blizzard's simplistic... Read full review »

Amazingly Accurate

Pros Too many to list here
Cons Would like to see even more races
Recommended it? Yes

I began playing strategy games with AOE about 2 years ago. Being new to the genre I was a little aprehensious about a "real time" strategy game but I figured I would try it. From that moment forward I was hooked. To not diverge from AOE2 let me tell you what I find desirable about the game and why... Read full review »

A great, fun, creative game

Pros GREAT GAMEPLAY, good graphics, not much new
Cons NOTHING AT ALL.
Recommended it? Yes

This game is the best RTS game I've seen since Starcraft. When Starcraft came out it was all owwwww, ahhhh but after 2 and a half years of Starcraft I got REALLY board. The Big Game Hunters map has totally dominated b.net and it's terrible. So I seeked a new RTS game. At first I turned to Tiberian... Read full review »

THIS GAME ROCKS!!!!

2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros GREAT GAME
Cons little long... BUT A GREAT GAME
Recommended it? Yes

I recently purchased age of empires 2 : age of kings, with a slightly hesistant feeling. I played age of empires 1, and generally disliked it due to it's slow rate of play and overwhelming inclination to let rushers win. However, with the town bell in aoe2, rushes are through! ^_^ plus the amount... Read full review »

Build Your Empire!

2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Great graphics, nice little touches
Cons Some buildings not readily identifiable
Recommended it? Yes

Ever play Age Of Empires 1, and not be able to keep your civilization going due to constant enemy attacks? This doesn't seem to be as much of a problem in Age 2. You have more time to build your civilization, and diplomacy seems to have a much greater effect than in Age 1.

There are lots... Read full review »

The Age of Kings

byender0051 Jan 4, 2000
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros real time strategy, more troop control
Cons campaign editor is difficult to use
Recommended it? Yes

In the way of the ever so popular Real Time Strategy games comes "The Age of Empires II, The Age of Kings." Another take on the WarCraft (an old blizzard game) and on Command and Conquer (an older WestWood Studios game). The point of Age of Empires II? to Rule a kingdom, advance your technology,...

Pros graphics, gameplay,
Cons similar to earlier version
Recommended it? Yes

Age of Empires II: the Age of Kings, is dazzling! Just watching the opening movie was exciting. As an ardent fan of the original AOE, I was naturally looking forward to the new veriosn, but what it turned out to be was better than I had hoped. For verteran AOE players, there is plenty of new things... Read full review »

Pros Many more units and options
Cons Resource hog
Recommended it? Yes

As an avid AOE and AOE:ROR fan for the last year and a half, I had really been looking forward to AOK. I checked out the screenshots and the animation of the trebuchet ("treebucket") on all the websites. So as soon as it came out, my husband and I bought a couple copies and started playing at...

Fun With Sharp Objects

2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros idle peasant button, well thought out,
Cons takes some time before you get to play with large quanities of sharp objects
Recommended it? Yes

Have you ever wanted to sit down at home and cut objects (including people) without appearing in Silence of the Lambs? If so, this game is for you! The best part of the game is that you can play it in your basement with very little mess. Now I bet your thinking how can I even think about installing... Read full review »
