The demo for the new Age of Empires came out today, and from the little I've played I love it. I've always been a fan of the series, more so than the likes of Warcraft. I'd recommend checking it out.

Will do buckaroo. Currently playing some KOTOR 2 and having a good time.
Its not a brand new game, but I found a nice version of it on the seven seas.

DL accelerator FTW.

Anyway i dont know, i just couldnt get into this game you know? Maybe when they release the full version, just seemed not as well done as say AoE II in terms of graphical design.

Also didnt like the automization of many of the old features. AKA you auto collect food/gold/wood. No longer collect stone, no formations.

And I couldve SWORN that many of the buildings are the exact same as in the old AoE series, mainly the towers reminded me of the Japanese keeps.

That and i think i just like the swords and bows kind of RTS more than guns and canons. Rome TW spoiled me
