"played trial verion/good game"
5 stars"

i've played trial version from the official website and it is good game.

This game have good visual but does not require very-high suppa duppa system.

theres new elements that wasnt in the previous version such as exp/lvl system and “home city” shipment system and etc.

you will enjoy it :)

"WHOA!"
5 stars"

Being lucky enough to get my hands on the new Age of Empires III I decided to share my thought with the rest of Gameplanet. The grapic are right on the money being so realistic . Features in this game are much more exciting and not only can you use your fists but also a gun of some kind. Something I espicially liked about AOE3 was by far the steam trains as they are one of the most realistic unit on the game.

Go out there right now and buy Age of Empires III of Gameplanet is it is much cheaper and certainly very reliable ;) .

"Its ok I suppose"
4 stars"

Well I have been lucky enough to get a copy of AOE3 nine days before the release date. The gamplay is set during the colonial times which is a disappointment for me as I liked the old hack and slash style of the old one :P. Its actually really smooth and fast right until the point where you have a battle wit about 20 or more people the framerate drops quickly and your left standing almost wondering what happened. Its also fairly linear as its kill this kill that, well done! capaign mission complete! Speaking of campaigns the first mission would be downright impossible for newcomers as you are put straight into a battle with about 10 crossbowman and thats it, while trying to hold off a hord of infinite muskateers. Your 10 crossbowmen get decimated quickly and you have to build units in 5 barracks 5 at a time. that may sound like a lot but when you are building 5 at a time and they die almost instantly its no fun, almost seems like theres no stratergy involved. Enough critisising now for the good stuff. There is a much bigger limit to the population is 99 for each kind of unit as far as I know. There are other things too which are too numerous and complicated to explain in a review, you'll just have to wait and see for yourself. Ah well that me hope you enjoy AOE3 when you get it heh heh.
