Age of Empires

Not a Good Buy

User Rating: 6.7 | Age of Empires: The Rise of Rome PC

By Yamauchirulez | Review Date: January 9, 2006

Rise of Rome really is not an obligation to get. After a while, you get bored of age of empires and this expansion will not help much. Sure, with this, you get many interesting new campaigns and a lot of new units and stuff but it misses one thing: addiction. When I played the new campains, I did not get a flash that made me unable to close the computer. Sure, everybody or almosttell me that this(or the first) was addictive. The only thing that is addictive in this game is playing in the free game mode or building your own terrain. The new units are sure good and fun to play but, at the price that it starts, even at 25$, you should not buy the expansion. Last thing: microsoft did not even fix the little bugs or improve the graphics. That really sucks!
