I bought this game, as I have bought all the previous Total War games. It can be a nice change of pace from the Paradox Interactive strategy games I normally play. But I am sad that despite various modding efforts sho... Read Full Review

After Empire and Napoleon I thought SEGA and CA would have made efforts to improve their image. They did not.
I'm ashamed that I bought this game really. After the amazing Medieval Total War I and II as well as Rome, CA and SEGA released Empire, which was one of the most unpolished, buggy and broken games I've bought in ages. ... Read Full Review
