What our customer's say!

"No good.", This game is no better than the origional. The fact that they put persians and yanks in it doesn't make it more enjoyable.

"Well-balanced, complex strategy", I hate the phrase "Total Package" but it is apt in this expanded "Rise of Nations" dual-disc package.

The original game was good - and very frustrating. The computer will neither lay down and let you roll over it, nor simply overwhelm you. It will, however, put up a heckuva good fight.

Even with overwhelming force, attrition plays such a large part of the damage your invading units receive that by the time the opponent is beat, you'll not have much left to mount an effective attack.

In short, this is a strategy game that really makes you think ahead.

"on sale", Got Rise of Nations on sale for $20, wouldn't pay more than that...
tip: turn game speed down; took 40 minutes game time to conquer world.
Not worth playing second time round, have un-installed.

I purchased this for my grandson for Christmas. He loved it. I had to fight to get him to turn it off. He is 12. This follows along the same lines as Age of Empires (Age of Kings) Age of Empires 2: Age of Kings

"Just what I was hoping ", Just have to say that the American civ fits with my style of gameplay so well that it has really increased the fun of the game. So much so that I have yet to try any of the other new civs. I keep meaning to, but . . .

Choosing governments has been executed very well, too, and I think it's a definite plus. I'd look forward to that concept expanded somewhat in a sequel . . .
