What did you think of age of empires 3?

Question

please add the pros and cons, also i'm thinking about empire earth 3 so add what ever kind of information you can. thanks

Answer 1

I love aoe3 and it is my favorite real time strategy game with the possible exception of Command and Conquer Tiberium Wars.  I highly recommend it.  I've never actually played empire earth 3, but it got horrible reviews so I wouldnt buy it.

Pros- specs are pretty low, 8 well balanced civilizations in the core game and 3 more for each of the 2 expansions, easy to learn but still difficult to master, online play is addicting, pretty good offline skirmishes, combat is well rounded

Cons- campaign isn't that great, a few minor online connection issues

Aoe3 is a lot of fun and you won't be disappointed.  If you're interested in real time strategy games, Command and Conquer 3 tiberium wars is also a great choice

Answer 2

It is overrated.  

Answer 3

I think age of empires 3 is to slow paced compared to other games like command and conquer.
