When it comes to vast, kingdom-spanning ambition, you can't do better than Microsoft's Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings. Microsoft went all out to create this real-time strategy game, and it fairly hums with gorgeous graphics, sophisticated AI, and challenging scenarios for the novice and experienced player alike. The point of the game is to shepherd your fledgling civilization to world domination, using war, trade, and exploration. You start with the bare minimum to get going, and you've got to balance your people's needs with your desire to be a little Napoleon. The Age of Kings gives you a ton of new units and technologies to enrich your strategic options. Each scenario is placed accurately within history, but you're also free to create your own. Less

FlatOut is an adrenaline-inducing racing game with an exciting story line, spectacular crashes and a not-too-serious attitude in the best movie-like fashion. The thrill and terror of racing light, cheap and often very dented cars in constant close proximity and contact with other cars brings out the white-knuckled racing spirit as the player faces rapidly changing situations. In third-person mode, the player can rummage around the pit area eyeing out competitors cars, stop by at a bar for the latest gossip, fix and tune his car and interact with the other in-game characters, carrying out short missions related to the story behind the players character.

Pros Everything.. knights, castles.. what more do ya want?
Cons Takes over your life!
Recommended it? Yes

Yeah. So I know this has over three hundred reviews already, and I likely won't add anything Earth shattering to any of those, but sometimes you run across something that you just have to write about. Age Of Empires II is just such a game.

Apparently, we've had this game for quite some... Read full review »

I don't have many hobbies- I prefer to waste my spare time watching television but last year I discovered two activities that have taken up hours upon hours of my time. The first of these "obsessions" is Epinions and the second is a computer game called Age of Empires 2 (AOE2).

Flat Out: Graphical masterpiece ready to be smashed

byGr8ful Oct 2, 2005
66 Helpfuls 67 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent graphics, great sound, lots of fun to play.
Cons You have to go to work sometime.
Recommended it? Yes

Flat Out is a racing game not too unlike many others in the past that have racers smashing into one another in a speed frenzy to the finish line. However, most other racing games leave out a lot of the details of car crashing. Older games like Need for Speed III didn't even show any damage after a... Read full review »

Smashing up Cars and Fences - The Perfect Way to Unwind.

Pros Nice Graphics. Great interaction with the environment. Great multiplayer fun.
Cons Only good in small doses. Not too much fun single player unless you're a fanatic.
Recommended it? Yes

I am not usually known for my great passion for car racing games. The Need for Speed series never grabbed me and Colin McRae never really did much for me either, so it was a bit of a surprise when a friend introduced me to Flat Out and my initial reaction was a positive one.

Flat Out is a... Read full review »
