Age of Empires II is a great RTS. This is an example of how RTS's should be made. There are a lot of different civilizations that you can be. The historical information in this game is quite neat too.

The gameplay doesn't differ from most other RTS. There are no features in this RTS that will revolutionize the RTS genre.

The sound unfortunatley is quite under what I'd expect. It doesn't sound clear at some points and even on occasion crackles a bit.

The graphics are pretty good. Nothing to really say about them.

If you love RTS and history, this might be the perfect game for you!
