  1. Empire: Total War - New Total War Coming

    I've been meaning to check out Europa Barborum for a while now so I've just got it installed. But from the looks of it the AI is the same as vanilla? From their FAQ - "Q: Do you have improved the AI in any way? A: No, the AI is completely hardcoded, and cannot be altered." But hopefully it's...
  2. Empire: Total War - New Total War Coming

    I agree with the sentiment that they did so much really well, and then tend to let the game down with bad ai and some weird gameplay decisions. I think the biggest mistake was changing from the Risk style map of the earlier versions and moving to a "tile based" map. It didn't add too much to...
  3. Commanders: Attack - New TBS Preview

    Looks like a major advance wars rip.
  4. Armageddon Empires: Post-Apoc Turn-Based Strategy

    Ok so I picked up the game and played it through a couple of times, so here is my early review. The game is something like Settlers of Catan meets Mad Max. Very much board game oriented and 4X (explore, expand, exterminate, exploit) style gameplay. I won't go into too much detail about...
  5. Armageddon Empires: Post-Apoc Turn-Based Strategy

    I'm a sucker for the post apoc setting and enjoy these kinds of games so I'll probably buy it tomorrow and check it out. Reminds me a little bit of Star Chamber with the CCG elements. I'll post up my impressions of the game if I end up picking it up.
  6. UFO: Extraterrestrials is Complete!

    Art direction is terrible. Sad to say but the original had more "atmosphere" in the visual department.
  7. Vainglory of Nations - Ageod Gets Victorian

    Terrible name. "VainGlory" sounds like something you would pick up in a sex shop.
  8. Depths of Peril - First Screens

    Looks like Diablo had sexy time with Das Siedlers.
  9. Battlefront is Out Now

    I picked it up today. Have played through most of the Saipan campaign and enjoying it so far. If you're a fan of the series you'll enjoy the game.
  10. So, is the end finally here?

    I probably spend an equal amount of time playing old games as new games. At the moment it's - Colonization, Xcom, Civ4, Red Orchestra and Dominions 3. So yeah, they're still fun. The classics stay good but unfortunately even the best games don't have unlimited replay value..
  11. So, is the end finally here?

    I think this scenario isn't too uncommon. I'm 28 and I'm in a similar situation - used to really enjoy "gaming" as a hobby but find newer games don't offer the same kind of enjoyment as the previous era of games. I also spend alot of time looking for older games that I missed or are worth...
  12. Gadget Trial Will Scar You For Life

    Is this some kind of hentai game?
  13. Europa Universalis 3 Now Available

    Downloading mine now..
  14. Best turn-based spaceship combat

    You could try Shadow Armada. Not being developed any more but it's an interesting turn based ship combat system. http://home.comcast.net/~shadowman131/ShadowArmada.htm
  15. Dawn of War vs Starcraft: The Rebuttal

    People are bothering to discuss "realism" in relation to RTS games? :roll:
