Yeah I just got it and the graphics are amazing! Probably the best graphics out there, maybe tied with Brothers in Arms and FEAR but whoa, it's amazing! The home city future rocks too, I love how they put an RPG element in a RTS game. <3

If you like playing RTS' and your graphics card can hold the game, get it!

I've heard about it, yes, don't know if I will get it though.

Is it true that you now have a special "hero" that makes you loose if you die?

[Yitter]

Hahaha, no.

You do have a hero that builds Trade route houses (special addition) and town centers (there are more ways to get another town center though) but when he dies, he just lays in the place he died and when a soldier of you goes to the place he's alive again.

Lmao that sucks.

Aww man I forgot this was coming out. I wanted to get it. Maybe this weekend. It looks really good.

Brothers in Arms best graphics? Yeah right....

Best looking games are
-Half-Life 2 (Even a year after it was created)
-Quake 4
-FEAR
-AoE3

I loved Age of Empires 2 it was a fantastic game, although the Age of Mythology tag on was a supreme disappointed. After these comments i may be enticed to renter the world of AoE

Yeah I shouldn't have included BIA there...

And Agravic, it doesn't suck, you hardly need the hero. Only for getting treasures (around the map there are several treasures with 40 gold etc.) and Outposts really. I've never used them for town centers though, with a homecity shipment, you can get a town center wagon with some civs.

And yes, Mike, AoM was sucky, but this'll blow your sox off IF you have a good GFX card.

Screenshots please ... i need my fix!

It may be Spanish or w/e, but it has a lot of screenshots.

The screenshots you see of the towns are Home Cities, like Paris is the French' home city, and it brings bonuses to you from time to time (like 4 horsemen, 6 musketeers, 300 food).

It's a great game for sure. I've just played the demo (been stuck in the house), but I'll be buying the game for sure. It beats the pants off 1 & 2.
