I've been waiting 6 years for Microsoft to release the sequel and now it has come. The graphics of the game are pretty good for a RTS. The sound is pretty good. The sounds for the muskets firing cannon noise, and the Music is good. I definitely can't wait for the expansion too. At first there were bugs but since a patch has come out things have smoothed out. I would recommend to anyone interested. Since I just got the game I have nothing much to say. But I have too say this game has great potential, especially in a couple of months when user content and mods come out the game will really become interesting and addicting. However with Civilization IV around the corner, this game may become old too fast. I rate this game a 9.6 because it is a Masterpiece and an Instant Classic!
