I actually just said i'd one up you and do more.

why would i spend money on videogames when i can go out on my motorcycle (which requires money and provides more thrills?

Oh sorry, I thought you were challenging me to the tech thing - which to be fair I need for work and university. But yeah, go for it. Hope you do well!

As for the second part, I'd say respect. Plus you're making it sound like you don't use games at all when you're actually just not paying for them...

I barely play games as is now lol

The main games I play are L4D and CoD4 which I acquired legally.

and on top of that, IF i had the money to spend on games, I'd spend it on EVE, not buying games.

Sooo... favourite TW game?

I'm gonna have to say Medieval 2 because my mate (cunningly knowing the units and not letting me pause) always slaughters me. I'd give Rome a bigger shot if they had the replenish feature from Empire - that thing was a lifesaver - and by life I mean time.

I would definitely say Empire. While Rome was perfect in my eyes, as well as being set in a better period, Empire did a lot more than Rome. Right now I just need a bit more patching.

Empire.

Only one I've owned so far(played demos of rome and medieval) but it's already pretty much ruined the old melee for me, so I'm not going to it.

Rome.

Empire has a whole lot more diplomacy, which I love, but nothing beats the time period, units, and MUSIC of Rome.

I prefered Medieval II over Rome. I haven't had the honor of playing this game yet, sadly.

by Dud Doodoo Sat May 16, 2009 11:41 am

I can certainly agree to that, I guess I love Rome more. Empire did have better gameplay I think, but the feel of Rome was much more memorable.

by Cheese Sat May 16, 2009 12:33 pm

Probably the speed of my computer (took four mins to load a battle) and general breakingness of Empire that put me off it. I'll try again at Mum's.

by Gold Spartan Sat May 16, 2009 2:47 pm

Rome has to be the best. Maybe not gameplay, but it started it all. Not to mention the music is epic. I wouldnt agree on Republic Rome being a better time period than the Napoleonic War.

Shogun started two before Rome.

by Gold Spartan Sat May 16, 2009 8:25 pm

IF you can call those games the same, then your right.

by Cheese Sun May 17, 2009 5:27 am

Never played Shogun; but I still play Medieval on my laptop. I think they're pretty similar.

by PiEdude Sun May 17, 2009 10:03 am

Never will play Shogun.
