Does anybody play Empire Earth: Art of Conquest. If your thinking about getting any of these games you probably dont want to get Empire Earth 2 thats the worst Empire Earth so far.

i have played the original empire earth once at a friends house, and it was alright, but i prefer the regular AOE games, especially now that AOE 3 is coming out. and now its especially cool cus we have our own wireless network and i can play multiplayer with my bros...

Me and my bro play over our network as well lol, the original empire earth was pretty bad... compared to EE:AOC, but aoe 3 wont be any better then empire earth 2 i'll bet cause the graphics are gonna be so high you wont be able to click once with out lag! **Unless of course your lucky enough to have a $3000 computer**

never head of those games, what would you rate it in all areas?

[dank]

no, aoe3 they are designing so that you can run it without much lag on computers that arent quite that high-end, its just u wont get to turn the graphics up all the way

and tom, about empire earth, what happened is that the guy who made aoe1 and 2 left microsoft and went to work for sierra (another software company if you havent heard of them), and there he made EE, which is kind of similar but spans from ancient times, like in aoe1, all the way to the future, where u get spaceships and antimatter storms

i dont think i can really rate it in all areas, ill leave that to darkredragon, because ive only played it once, but its ok. there are definately worse games out there

If you have a fast connection then go to gamespot.com, if you dont then google the game you want a rating on and look for the link to gamespot.

Well, if you say so....... we'll just have to see when its released.

giving it a rating uh...... well just read my post above this one and you can get one from gamespot thats what I use before I get a game and somtimes read the review.

well, aoe2 had extremely good graphics for when it was made, and with the settings a little lower than optimal, we could run it without any lag on our comp we had then, so im thinking that they should be able to do that again... hopefully

But wasn't that like 2000 or some time in the late 90's? My computers is a 03 so its 2 years old and it can barly run EE2 and back then the comp I played AOE2 on was a 98 and it ran fine, but the graphics they put into these games now is just too much for computers.

[dank]

no its not, not if u get new comps and dont cheap on the graphics card ( in other words, dont even think about integrated graphics if u want good games)

and yes, aoe2 came out in '99, but that doesnt really matter, because on a relative scale, its just about as good as aoe3 is for games now

We'll see.

about the whole comp thing, if you have a comp from 03 you should be fine to play any game released, mine is from 03 and i have no trouble, i mean i have lags every now and then cause the battery on my laptop goes wacky but still a comp from 03 should be able to handle the game.

Also i think that Age of Empires 2 was in 2002.

Trust me if its anything like Empire Earth 2 it wont run on any computers.

tom, i have age II, and it was definitely '99

and darkred, i cant guarantee u that age III wont lag, but empire earth was always worse for lag than age or age II...

Well Art of Conquest never lags cause of the pop cap but I hate that thing at times cause you can only build one type of army, Land, Sea, or Air.

well, u kno...
