Been playing Medieval 2 all weekend....wondering whether to try and download Napoleon & Empire to see if they'll run on my laptop
Napoleon is a bit of a damp squib to be honest, Empire is the much better game. I played all the campaigns in Napoleon in 120 hours which is simply far to short for a game of it's "supposed" depth.
May just go for empire then, which is promoising as it's the next one and the laptop has no trouble at all running Medieval 2
Civilization BTS is the dogs nuts. 6 years on I'm still playing a single player game once a week... which takes about 10 hours to complete.
Mariokart on the Wii is the Ultimate Mick. I liked the SNES one too, and at the time, thought it was immense, but the one one the Wii is ****ing amamzing.
BTS is amazing! They finally made the AI a bit more human-like and the whole game just feels more balanced. Edge Mario kart on Wii is for 12 year olds!
i started operation flashpoint : red river last night a good old fashioned shoot em up best part of an hour a mission .. i did get bored though and killed my own squad
I only played AoE a couple of times but I hammered the original Civilisation a fair bit. Speaking of strategy games, did anyone ever play UFO? Some people slagged it off because it was turn based but I loved it.
Yep I played that, it was a rehash of an old Spectrum Game called "Rebelstar Raiders" from around 1986. Pretty good in it's day.
