Uploadings vids and writing blogs make it go up higher than posting does, but Levels practically mean nothing anyway :P

I've never played it :P

Rise of Nations is so underappreciated :(

Rise of Nations was/still is a great RTS game thats never been truly appreciated, i loved being able to play as various nations with unique units and architecture from history. Games like StarCraft are good but they lack the choice/range/variation in units because it has a smaller number of factions, RoN had loads of nations/factions to choose from.

I know! For example, go play Age of Empires II. If you play as the Chinese, the soldiers look exactly the same as the Celts, even though they're both completely different nations. In Rise of Nations, I actually wanted to go out and build new cities and set up trade routes, even get in a fight or two. In other RTS games, you really just stay in one place and possibly get effed in the A by a bunch of calvary.

Rise of Nations also has the best fighting system and diplomacy system I have ever seen in an RTS.

How about ROL, is itany good?gogators4life

Oh God no, it's nothing like Rise of Nations at all.

1. Rise of Nations
2. Age of Empires II
3. The Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II

So far, there are three really good MMO's on the horizon that I'm scoping out: World of Warcraft, The Lord of the Rings Online, and Pirates of the Burning Sea.

I've played World of Warcraft before, and I can see how addicting it can get, with all of the possibilities you have, but what makes LotR Online and Pirates different from WoW. I've always been a fan of LotR, but I'm wondering if cancelling my WoW subscription (I hardly play the game anyway) would be worth it to subscribe to LotR instead. What makes LotR different from WoW? There's still the common basis of the game, as in all MMO's: Kill a lot of stuff, but what makes it all different?

And then again, I might want to cancel my WoW subscription to subscribe to Pirates instead. With all of the MMO's out there, Pirates is one of the only ones in which they have forgotten the basis of common MMO's and have started from the ground up.

So what should I do? Try LotR, wait for Pirates, or stick with WoW?

cause i wanna buy halo 2 and lost planetsly718

It depends. You need to look at the System Requirements on the back of the box, and it should say which Operating Systems it runs off of. Unfortunately, Halo 2 is only for Vista, but thankfully Gears of War is coming out for XP.

well to change my computer to windows xp or something better than 2000 do i need to buy a new computer or can i do it from this one? Also I just checked my computer only has 7GB on the local disk criku-ansem

No, operating systems come on CDs. You pop it in, fill out the instructions, and you're set.

I don't get what Archangel was saying though. I never had to put in my credit card number to receive the trial, and when I decided to buy the game, I just set up an account and ran it off the Trial, and it worked perfectly.
