of Conquerors. I think that soured Age of Mythology for me just a bit. Oh don't get me ...
Pros: Easy to use interface, Varying twists to the real time strategy formula Cons: Mediocre AI, average single player experience, too much base building
With all of the RTS games out there, the phrase "beating a dead horse" more than applies to this genre. We've seen everything from humans and orcs to Star Wars licenced games. Now, Ensemble Studios, the happy folk who brought us Age of Empires (AOE) I...
Pros: Less resource micromanagement. Pretty water. Fierce God Powers. Cons: Only three civilizations because it's a resource hog.
The release of Age of Mythology (AoM) was continually delayed by Microsoft and/or Ensemble Studios to make some more refinements to the game. The wait was for the most part worth it, as we are presented with a real time strategy (RTS) game that ...
THE BASIC BEEF
Its finally here! After first hearing of Ensemble Studios latest project, I was no less than thrilled. The outcome? The finest, and hopefully not last installment in their RTS library. After Age of Empires and Age of Empires...
Pros: Pretty, fun, interesting god powers, rotateable camera, zoom feature, lots of things to research Cons: Screwy difficulty settings, Odd scale on some things. Can't play defensively
Since a lot of other people have already commented on the graphics and mythological aspects of this game, I'm going to start right in with my gripe about single player game play. Although I'll mostly be complaining, I still like the game. I wouldn't ...
Pros: Myth units, spells, selection of deities Cons: Minor nitpicky details
I have been a big fan of Ensemble Studios since the release of Age of Empires 2 (AoE2). When I found out that they were producing an "Age" game based on the mythology of various civilizations, I knew that this was a game I had to own. I don't know how...
Pros: Gorgeous Graphics, Real strategy required, interesting concepts Cons: Must have the right video card(s), Learning curve ahead
Age of Mythology is a new incantation of the Age of series by Ensemble Studios. Those familiar with Age of Empires, Age of Kings and their sequels will immediately be familiar with the lay of this game.
Pros: fun game with great storylines. Cons: online playing

Pros: Idea, spells, gods, creatures, mythology Cons: Graphics, audio, many little details
There are several games in the world that became a classic. There are several games that from their name alone, or the name of the company became a world wide success. When I say that I refer to the ten greatest.. Civilization for one, Age of Empires ...
Pros: Great graphics. Gods, myth units and spells. Easy to play if you know RTS Cons: Formulaic and monotonous for people who play lots of games in this genre.
I got this game after seeing ridiculously high reviews for it on multiple sites. While major review sites opinions are valuable because they see so many different games they do know what they are talking about and how games measure up, the problem is ...
Pros: Smoother than AOE, Graphix are awesome, Myth units are cool Cons: Only 3 civs, some AOE problems still exist, thin manual.
I picked up AOM a couple days after it came out and I've been playing it ever since. It is made by Ensemble Studios (the same people who made Age of Empires 1 & 2). They did a great job with this. The visual graphics are so detailed that you will really...
Pros: Graphics, sound, detail, internet gameplay, single player, and myth units. Cons: time consuming (takes a long time to build a large village)
Choice:
In AOM you have a large range of choise of what civilization you use, what gods you choose to worship, and you have five different ages of technology to work through. You will always have something new to build and something new to...
Pros: Great real-time action and graphics. Interesting storyline. Cons: Poor movie graphics.
Difficult to use Map Editor
I have always enjoyed Ensemble Studios games, but this is it's best yet. People who have played Age of Empires 2 will quickly catch on to the similar gameplay and major concepts. Those who have never played any of the previous "Age" games will not have...
Pros: Poster of Isis! Tech trees handy. Cons: Minotaur - UGLY! Waaaaaaaaaaaay to expensive for this edition!!!!
This review is on the COLLECTORS EDITION OF AGE OF MYTHOLOGY, not the regular version of the game. It is the same game, just one has extra goodies in a big box!
First of all, this was a birthday gift from my husband, so I had no choice in the...
