Pros: Awesome map textures, units are powerful, fun to play quick or long games Cons: maps are too small, resources never run out, Smart citizen function a pain sometimes The Bottom Line: If you want a game that you can get to playing and doesn't take forever for something to happen, this game is up there. Review: I love real time strategy games, I started playing Empire Earth which is still one of my top favorites, Rise of Nations is a close tie to it. from Shopping.com Summary: Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends is the sequel to the original Rise of Nations. Rise of Legends is a real-time strategy game which uses fantasy locales instead of releastic locations of the original game. from Mwave.com Summary: Rise of Legends is Rise of Nations in 3D with new storyline. Rise of Legends, have good graphics, the unit details are fairly good and the building details are just as good. from Mwave.com This game will give anybody hours of fun and stragetic challenge! There are many different nations to choose from to either fight, or be. from Circuitcity.com Summary: Rise of Legends is a sequel so to say of the game Rise of Nations, now with more of a fictional approach to the game. The game has a very fun real time strategy gameplay implemented which your nation evolves over time into a more powerful state. from Mwave.com I tend to prefer turn-based strategy games. However, simple keystrokes can speed the game up, slow it down, or pause. Believe me, if you're caught in a three-front war on various small continents with lots of naval action as well, you'll appreciate the ability to pause frequently, even with the slowest speed selected. Game programs have always "pushed the envelope" of whatever computer power and technology existed at the time of their release, mostly for the sake of graphics and other relatively frivolous reasons. from Amazon.com Pros: Amazing Real time Strategy game. Its simple and straight forward for the beginner but challenging enough for the die hard RTS fan. I didn't buy this copy off of newegg but if I would have it woulda been here extremely fast and without a scratch. from Newegg.com I just love these kinds of games. What I particularly loved about this game is the history aspect, that you can choose an age and stick with that age the whole game and not having to advance to the modern world every time. from Amazon.com I played the heck out of AOE II. I really enjoyed it, and then when AOE III became available for the Mac I had to have it. from Amazon.com Rise of Nations is mix between city building and historical strategy. You can guide your nation through from ancient time to the present. from Amazon.com
