Pros: Very entertaining and easy to learn
Cons: A few bugs which need to be fixed
I bought Age of Empires II with high expectations, after I had enormous enjoyment out of the original game and I wasn't disappointed.
The idea of the game is still the same, guide your civilization to power and wealth. The time frame of the...

Pros: Great sound, realistic, intense action.
Cons: Graphics a bit outdated, kinda mindless.
Wow. That's what I first said when I popped this game in and played it on my PC. This game is quite possibly one of the best RTS of all time, minus Warcraft II, of course. It's the best (but with wArcraft III coming soon, the throne might ascend.) This...

Pros: gameplay dynamics, races, balanced units
Cons: micromanagement in early stages
what sets aoe2 apart from other rts games? the main thing is balance. in red alert 2, the first person to build up an army of prism tanks wins. aoe has counter units for every unit. there are 13 races to play as opposed to starcraft's 3; red alert's...

Pros: Just give me another minute type of game
Cons: Taxes older computers
This game continues the great tradition of "Age of Empires". Better AI, new units and difficult game settings make this a great time eater of a game. The wide array of civilization to choose from, plus the added economics system greatly...

Pros: New things...
Cons: Look and feels the same
Probably one of the most eagerly awaited sequels to a game in a long time… And it measures up pretty well.
Age of Kings is set in the periods after the original Age of Empires and allows you to continue your rise to fame as a world dominator...

by ConsumerAdvocate , Oct 26 '99
Pros: fun stuffs such as castles, unique units for each race, trading with partners
Cons: one game can last an hour easily
Need a break from StarCraft?
This game is definitely for diehards, interested in the middle age era where castles, knights, and siege machines ruled.
Kids would love the building part of the game, kind of like Sim City. You can...

Pros: The last game you will ever need to play.
Cons: Hours pass and so will your life.
I would have to say that this is the game to remember. MY uncle played this game every night when he came home from work until the day he passed away which was this march. IN my opinion you can spend your who life if front of a vidio game and then just...

Pros: excellent graphics, new features, and fixes on the previous game
Cons: still little bitty guys running around. :)
Age of Empires II

game for quite a while before its...

Pros: Great fun with alot of action
Cons: none
I loved the first one so I bought this one as well. I love it! It's great fun, the only problem is I spend alot of hours on it. You get hooked on the game especially when you're in the middle of an attack and you're frantically trying to get your...

Pros: Good graphics, playtime, and buildings.
Cons: Population limit needs to be higher.
Age of Empires is another strategy war game by Microsoft. If you are in the market looking for a strategy game, get this. It's graphics are spectacular, and there are enough units to please all players. This game will have you at the computer for...

Pros: great game and multiplayer
Cons: complicated and gliches, but they can be fixed by download
I got this game as a gift, but they bought it because it was the best strategy of the year. This game has excellent graphics, the story lines are great, the different civilization is interesting, the ability to play on the internet is good because it is...

Pros: Nice improvements
Cons: Very similar to the first one
AOE 2, is a well put together, nicely drawn, well tested and fun. It's a good game, the sequel adds on many new features that make it better to play, more fun and more interesting. But this really isn't a sequel, its more like an expansion. Sure they...

Pros: Fun multiplayer, you get WarElephants!
Cons: Slow campaign
I have always been a fan of Age of Empires so when AOE2 came out I jumped on the chance to buy it. This game is the cleaned up version of AOE. It has much better graphics and improved control over units. The new races are all slightly different and...

Pros: Many more units and options
Cons: Resource hog
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...

Pros: nuthing
Cons: slow and expensive
If you think About it they are useless units! Compared with a trebuchets they are useless units.
Trebuchet is right off the bat
Bombared cannon requires chemistry which costs 300f 200g and finally the research to the Bombard which costs 500f...
