Advance wars you better watchout!

User Rating: 9.3 | Age of Empires: The Age of Kings DS
This game is amazing and highly addictive. My mate is even going to buy a ds for this game that is how good it is. I mean you can't realy go wrong when you buy an age of empires game you always know it is going to be good. Well at least when ensembles studios makes it as every pc version of this game is amazing.

To start with as soon as you begin to play you hear the great age of empires theme song which is very cool. In this game there are 5 different campains and 5 different civilisations to choose from. there is one campain for each civilisation. However some are easier than others and each campain get icreasingly dificult as you play through. This game does a great job of setting the scene and telling you clearly what you need to do in each mission. The five civilisations in the game are franks, british, japanesse,mongles and sarecens. which all have their own strengths and waeknesses and all have different artitecture and armour and weapon designs. This game has a huge amount of units and buildings as well to allow a great array of stratagy which this game is full of, you also get one historic hero per team and he has powers that can be used to help you win. However if he or she dies you can't get a new one.

In single player this game is great and will make you become so addictive you lose track of time which i have done a lot while playing this game.

This game looks amaxing on the ds as the animation and grafics of the game are full of colour and style. This game still looks and feels like the pc version but also has a look of its own.

The sound of this game is exceptional from the battle cries to background music it is all top knotch.

This game also has great multiplayer game play which is fun and you and your mate can easily play a game together with computer controled civilisations as well if you want them on. You can even play with one ds by just passing it around with up to 4 player. You can't play online however using nintendo wi-fi but i am sure if they make anymore age of empires ports they will put it in.

The ds game is turn based however which i quiet like as it is a change from the pc versions that i play alot and makes me have to use new tactics.
So if you are looking for a new ds game on your ds that will keep you hucked for weaks to come look no further than this. This game is a bit more complex than advance wars but is still just as amazing. Advance wars better watch its back as this game is a an amazingly good turn based stratagy game. Plx make a age of empires 1 or 3 game on the ds.
