The graphics are great, but the age we play in is really boring. I think I will go on playing RTW:BI.

Yeah. RTS games tend to get old, especially when we have RTW around...

Well, in a way, RTW is also a RTS game. Remember how armies battle?

AOE is good, RTW is better. It's that simple.

Finally...I have AOE3, it is just a copy tho. I can't play it yet because a don't have a computer to play it on. My previous computers motherboard had fried, as did the whole system. So, I might get another computer today.

I would had like it if they added Native American as a playable civilization. What a huge dissapointment.

They left the game fairly open so taht tehy can do an expansion later one. All big selling RTS games are created with expansions already planned

Unfortunately, that's true. They do it just to make more profit.

The Single Player Campaign was really awkward. They really wanted to avoid a tradiitional RTS campaign, and it came out...awkward, but still interesting.

I was mostly interested in the multiplayer part of the game (which is what makes RTS fun these days), and it is pretty good. The problem is that it doesn't have a rating systems - I was totally dissapointed by this. Instead it uses a %win tag which is totally useless, so matchmaking becomes very random.

Overall, the gameplay is pretty good and offers the mulitplayer that RTW doesn't offer, even though AOE3's multiplayer has been tweaked to appease casual gamers now.

I have aoe III there are some mistakes in it on graphical parts, like that + signs on the flags of the Ottoman ships plus the flag of modern Turkey is hanged on their capital towns  

Guys i play that game everyday on Hamachi network with other 2 guys (mostly weekends), if you want to play with us just pm me and i explain how you should do it.

I played the game just on Saturday at a gaming academy.  I love the game.  I am the French, go figure, they have good units.  I like the fact that the different difficulty levels are different, not like the old games how there was no difference to speak of.  I love this game.

I also don't think that AOE3 is as good as the classic Age games, but since Aoe3 has the community at this point, I guess I'll just stick to it.

Aoe3 is pretty inaccurate but it's pretty interesting. I play online as Germans and they have the most anachronistic units, such as Doppelsolders, Landsknects, and Hussite War Waggons, even though the game is supposed to span up to the 1820s. I find it really fun when German Doppelsolders with two-handed swords charge against lines of rifles and cannon.

The computer personalites are pretty neat, especially Napoleon, who is very cocky and Isabella.

As I have played it more, I like Age 2 better then 3.  3 has better graphics no doubt, but I like Age 2 better over all

don't know about the expansion pack but still would like to say that the game itself is great.
