User Rating: 10 | Rome: Total War PC
It is one of the few that has made a revolution in the strategy gaming giving players the ability to manipulate the world with politics and war(war mainly). I've played the Total war series since Shogun (which was a great start) but I really feel that this game is at the top as it was expected or even better. I won't tire u with a long description of the game. In a few words it is a turn based strategy game in the conquer Europe based in the history of the Roman Empire beggining in 270 year B.C. with all the historical events and soldiers detailled in every particullar. But when 2 armies (or more) crush than it changes to amazing real time battles. It's not only the graphics that are amazing or the wonderful sound of everything that give life to the world but it's the feeling that u are really there feeling the heat of the battle giving orders for your troops who fight in the most realistic way ever. U see armys crush and your soldiers fight diying or winning. The game is huge but at the right size. I like to play FPS or Driving games too so I'm not a player oriented only to strategy games, but this time I can only be amazed by this game and everything that is done in such detail and realism. You can expect to play it for a month or more playing 5 hours a day and after u finish the campaign for the first time than u'll try to finish it with the other factions that become unlocked after that (It's a way developers found to make u even more addicted to the game). The game offers a very long lasting value being open ended and with so many quests that are there for u to achieve.The only thing I've found as a downside (if u want to consider it that way) is that it isn't a game for a casual player who doesn't want to be addicted and spend much time with games or that really hates history. This is the only game that has impressed me so much that I haven't found any bad point or flaw although I have played it for about 2 months now, so I suggest u to just try it even if u're not found of RTS coz' u're gonna play it for a very long time being the best strategy game ever created and an absolute candidate for the Game of the year prize. An applause to the wonderful job made by the guys at Creative Assembly who have made a game with nothing left to improve upon.
