The Game By Motorhead

The past is and will always be better than the future. I guess this is even so for technology. An example would be the Age of Empires game. Age of Empires 2 is my favourite computer game. It's a combination of strategy and tactics. Age of Empires 1 without doubt is still worth playing however Age of Empires 3 is not worth buying.

I played Age of Empires 1 when I was about 7-8 years old I guess. It was bloody fun. My favourite units were the monk and the scorpion. I liked the scorpion because it looked like a mechanical car stripped down to it's body structure. I liked the monk because it made a very funny noise when you use them to convert an enemy unit. There is the Age of Empires expansion pack but I have not yet played it though I have it installed in my computer. Such good memories........

Age of Empires 2 is definitely worth playing regardless of what generation you belong to. There's just so many thing to love about it. Firstly there's many civilizations to choose from, each majoring in one strategy. For example, the Byzantines are a defensive civilization. Another thing to love about the game is suprisingly it's simplicity in it's graphics. It's like playing Sim City in Age of Empires. The buildings look so neat and the units are so beautiful although it is not very detailed. The missions are so engaging and tough. There's a history section in the game for you nerds out there. Don't worry, I am guilty too of reading some parts of the history section. There's a buttin that leads you to scenario. Scenario is where you can create your own map and let other people play your map.

There is also the Age of Empires 2 expansion pack which also worth playing. The missions are much harder and there also the introduction of several new civilizations and with the introduction of new civilizations, comes new units and buildings. I do not love the new units and buildings because they look disgusting and not inproportion with the older units. 1 big dissapointment though, is there isn't any improvements in the A.I's tactics though there is improvement in it's strategy.

Age of Empires 3 is set in the Napoleonic era however, it is no where near the other 2. Even with the improved A.I and graphics, there just isn't that feeling. Age of Empires 3 is so not worth playing and so I shall end my post here. With that being said, THE GAME isn't worth playing
