Age of Sail. Can’t wait 🙂
It’s going to be a great game with great graphics. The only thing that isn’t as interesting is the period it’s self.
I loved AOE II btw

I’ve read about this. AOE2 was great, and I bet this one will be even better. I’ve seen some screens as well, and if those are in-game, then they’re incredibly detailed for a RTS. I’ll probably have to upgrade my video card to play it at maximum settings though.

Great news, I’m a fan of AOE and AOE 2, hopefully they’ll be able to bring out another hit this time.

Seriously?

*digs for Age of Empires II and the expansion*

Yeah I lost those. Were good games…but I think the cheats kinda ruined it all.

Wow those screenshots…they sure worked hard on the details this time!

*thumbs up*

Erm, in that case maybe don’t play with with cheats?

I only just got AOE II recently and i’m enjoying it. The only part I don’t like is constantly being destroyed by Crazy Penguin. This looks good though. I may have to get it so Penguin can destroy me in a new enviroment… 😮

I played AOE 1 and that was really good. I’ve been looking for an updated version. I’ve never played AOE 2 but i’ve seen it and that was impressive. I’m sure AOE 3 will be even better.

Dragonreborn, if a game is destroyed by cheats, isn’t that your fault for putting the cheats in? People say that cheats ruin a lot of games, but nobody forces you to put them in.

I’m currently addicted to Age of Mythology. I can’t wait to see the new game when it comes out. Yes I was very impressed with the screen shots also.

For anyone interested in this game, the demo has been released, in the process of downloading it now… looks very good…

Tis a hefty download though, about 375MB.

http://www.ageofempires3.com is one source but i’m sur eyou’ll be able to find others, most of them probably quicker….

Heh I was just looking at the trailer. The graphics are really cool and it also looks like it’ll be a fun game. I’ll probably be getting it although I’ve never played an Age of Empires game. (Yes I know shame on me *shock*)

Well the demo has been downloaded, and hell it looks great, theres a few great new features and the gameplays pretty fun.

Unfortunatly i’ve had a few BSOD when alt tabing and exiting the game… not quite sure why, hoepfully stability will be fixed later.

I downloaded and installed the demo, and I’m very impressed with the graphics. It looks spectacular, although it taxed my system (2.8 GHz P4 with 1GB RAM). I love AOE and spent many late nights playing the original.
