a great game, yet very dissapointing at the same

User Rating: 8.7 | Age of Empires III PC
As a huge fan of the age of empires series, i'm pretty disapointed. the game doesn't improve much. the graphics look a lot better now and the home city was a nice touch. many of the aspects in the game really didn't make it feel like an age of empires game to me. i thought it was leaning towards a faster pace RTS. i'm still kinda disapointed of this game, but hey, i was expecting it to recieve a 9.2 at least. gameplay is solid although not perfect, and the graphics make this age of empires more entertaining. the sound it great, but overall, nothing revolutionary. the best way to enjoy this game is lower ur expectations. after spending a couple of hours with the game it all seems to get repetative, sure you have all the different civilizations to play but all of them feel the same with a few new things here and there. i'm really disapointed, the game was suppose to redefine teh RTS genre for me but it just didn't do it. Overall the game came close but it just coud've done better
