Ive seen some of it, it seems that graphics have had a MAJOR improvement. I believe the gameplay is basically the same though.

I really liked AOE 1 (despite a lot of programming flaws). AOE 2 was pretty good but I never seemed to get into it as much as the original. I probably won't pick up 3 but I'm interested to hear how good it is...

I loved the original, but I loved Age of Kings even more. Age of Mythology was pretty fun too, though I didn't play it too much as I never owned it (though I'm thinking I might order it anyway and just have it on hand so t hat I can play it some winter night when I'm bored)

The reviews for AoE III weren't glowing, but they weren't bad. Though I expect the future patches to allievate some of the concerns people have had in the reviews. I've only played the tutorial thus far and so have little experience with the game, but it is fun so far and the graphics are very nice.

The only RTS I own right now is BfME, I'll download the demo for AOEIII tonight and see if I like it.

I really enjoyed AoE1 and I loved Age of Kings. But Age of Mythology I never got into and after oweing it for years I never beaten it.

AoE3 looks great. To great. I'll have to upgrade my computer before I'll be able to run it.

I like the idea of the homecentres and even though it doesn't change tons in gmaeplay the physic on the game should make up for it. Nothing like seeing a cannon blow a guy to nothing. I am hopeing to get a a new computer Around boxing.

I'm not sure what you mean... why not?

This one takes place in the colonial ages... just as North America is being discovered. It picks up after Age of Kings ended.
