Microsoft announces AGE OF EMPIRES III
Microsoft Game Studios has announced AGE OF EMPIRES III is coming. The sequel to the award-winning real-time strategy (RTS) AGE OF EMPIRES II is being developed once again by Ensemble Studios, the same firm responsible for the other two titles in the franchise. AGE OF EMPIRES III will ship sometime in the second half of 2005, with an exact release date to be announced later by Microsoft.

1. Hot Dog
My favorite series of games ever. I still play AOE 1 and the Rise of Rome on at least a monthly basis. I bought AOE 2 last year and have barely touched it, but I like it.

On top of being great games, they are probably the most stable software Microsoft has ever produced.

2. I'm not a AoE fan
But you touch upon something I'll comment on.

It does seem to me that Microsoft's game division is much more reliable than the rest of MS. I can't think of a MS game that I've bought ever being buggy. The Mechwarrior line is superb, imo.

3. Thanks, Kheph, for responding to my posts when no one else would
I'm gonna miss you, buddy. Too bad we could never meet face-to-face.

Put in a good word for us up there. We need all the help we can get.

Peace.

5. Woohoo! I loved AoE2 and I can't wait
I wonder if AoE3 will be similar to Rise of Nations?
