This game is just...... Sick. If you want to lose 244 hours of your life, play this game. I spent (from Christmas) 4 hours a day for two months playing this game. Nothing could stop me, not even a f***** up computer, I just started again as a different faction and started playing again. The gameplay is addictive and both the "Civilisation" and "Age of Empires" are brilliant and blend in together perfectly. The graphics are really good considering the amount of soldiers on screen but it is spoiled by a sometimes dodgy frame rate.The music really captures the mood of the game, whether its the beautiful Civilisation song or the spine-tingling battle song. As I mentioned before the campaign and Historic battles last for ages but then, it stops. Once you have finally finished the game, the replay factor is not big. Playing as the Carthagians and Gauls is good on paper, but they are very weak compared to the Roman factions and there are no missions from the senate to spur you on. Even so, there is still online and Deathmatch modes to fight in. Just believe me, go out and get this game.

NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
