- The Perfect Time Waster
- Age of Empires 3 is an awesome game with it's high-resolution graphics, new game-play, and deep story-line, but it IS NOT just a game. This is where spare time is meant to go. Microsoft has had some great ideas in the past, but the AoE series are honestly some of the best games I have ever played. This game will have you playing… More reviews
- A&E III
- anyone how liked A&E II will love this game It works grate on the MAC with the improved graphics are grate! More reviews
- Terrible, worse than the last edition!
- This game is not an improvement over the previous edition. I would not recommend buying this.
Reasons why it sucks:
-The graphics aren't that great.
-You can only see a small area of the playing field at once.
-You have to build up civilizations over time, you can't take full advantage of their attributes immediately.
- Excellent But Archers on the Plains of Abraham?
- This is an excellent strategy game. I am very interested in colonial and Eighteenth Century warfare so I enjoy the era and the animations of musket loading pioneers and soldiers. It mimics linear tactics although it is not an exact reproduction. The naval warfare is also good although you will not see ships in linear formation.
There is a definite improvement over Age of Empires II in that… More reviews
- Age of Empires didn't get worse; other games got better
- I think this is a really fun game. It has lots to do and some nice improvements over Age 2. The reason people don't seem to be liking this one so much is that it's nothing revolutionary. Age of Empires 2 was far better than other games in the genre, and AOE 3 isn't, but it's still a great game that's well worth the money. More reviews
