I used to play it when it first came out (when I had a pc that could handle it). And before that I logged untold hours on AoE 2.

AoE2 was a great game. How does III compare?

Everyone of my friends who has played both prefers AoE2.

So, all the talk about LAN games had me reminiscing. Anyone interested in the strategy based battle/warfare games? Thinking Age of Empires III (anyone played it?) or even a Command and Conquer. Would be up for vs or co-op.

Also, TF2... I should end up getting it sometime soon. I hear people like this game.

EDIT: Bah. Video card can't handle Civ 5. What a joke.

Definitely get TF2 soon, you'll love it. Also, play Portal!

As for Civ 5, what they might end up doing is putting the entire Civilizations catalogue for sale since that's what they've done for Mafia, BioShock and Borderlands. The reason I think it might be the Civ series is because those are their 4 major games that they have in their catalogue, unless they do something stupid and end the sale with Railroad Tycoon or some bullshit. =/

Overall I prefer the second one, I could probably still play for hours today. But 3 did have some really fun aspects, and I liked some of the new civs, especially the Russians. And I haven't even played any of the expansions. Will play again when I acquire a new pc.

Well, I already have Civ 4 with Warlords on my computer and was hoping I could end up playing Civ 5, but for whatever reason, what I would call a graphics low game doesn't like my graphics card... despite all the numbers matching or being higher. Don't quite understand, but whatever.

***Demi-God*** · 04-14-2011, 11:49 AM

What graphics card do you have? If all the numbers match/are higher then it should be fine. My graphics card isn't even recognized.

^Thats pretty damn low on the system demands scale. For those that cant make that, it might be time for an upgrade. If you have the means.

Bundle includes:

Splot Pre-order

I personally will donate $5 since I don't have much on my account, all to charity.

Also the 3 games can be activated through Steam.

Nice find. Think I shall partake.

ACt · 04-14-2011, 12:16 PM

I don't have it memorize, but when I ran a check, they said I didn't meet minimum even though the numbers seem to read that I had. I'll have to look into it tonight.

Still, only a concern if it comes on sale at a good price.

***Demi-God*** · 04-14-2011, 12:31 PM

If the numbers are good, that's all that counts. The next sale is up in 30 minutes, we shall seeee.

I think Demi is right on his call for a sale on the entire civ line-up, and if so it will probably be 75% off like the other deals.

~~Nostradamus of Steam they call me... well I call me. Still counts.~~
