    Well, your scale is a little off-putting. For example, if you had asked me to rank RTW on a scale of 1-10, I'd probably say 7. But your 7 is "A damn fine game. Truly enjoyable.", which doesn't, in my mind, fit RTW. And there is no game in existence that fits your 8-10 rating (again, imo).

    Hmmm.

    It's what I like to call "Divinus Arma's silly little way of telling a retarded joke because it is fun to have fun poking fun at things that are fun or not fun, depending on whether or not you like it and I am sorry that you did not get my dry sense of humor you lonely wretched hermit of a soul trapped behind a computer" type of poll.

    In case you really care, the rankings are for fun. Choose 1-10 as you see fit. As you know, no game will ever be "Satan's ultimate revenge and sign of the apocalype" either.


    And by the way, this response is another demonstration of my miserably dry sense of humor.

    The problem is that some of us are wondering what the community really feels as a whole about Rome: Total War. I see lot of people who share my opinion that Rome: Total War is a shoddy game with much potential, but I also see people who can't see any wrong in it. I wonder just how many people feel that the game is not a good game. My guess is that six out of ten is a pretty accurate figure for how the comminuty feels about the game, even if it weren't for your odd wording of the overly numerous poll choices.

    I would be unable to produce an "out of ten" figure without offering all ten options. The poll provides the data to produce a basic statistic from a convenience sample.

    I gave it a 5, though it has room for more if they put the time into.
    And a swedish massage (even when done by Swedes) isn't that good.. I can think of other things that are better..

    An awesome game, and that's all there is to it. If you go to gamerankings.com, you'll find that it's the second highest scoring historical RTS of all time, second only to Age of Kings.

    That's pretty good for a game that isn't a RTS game.

    yeah, true, but it's grouped under that category nonetheless.

    Benny_moore - sorry to mock you, but I knew you were american when i read your post, and before i checked where you were from. Two choices to represent a spectrum of opinion? You've been trampled and beaten by your so-called electoral system.

    *grin* This coming from someone in the UK? You sure have a wide spectrum to choose from. Conservatives on the right, Labour on the right... (the Lib Dems are quite funky, though)

    I like the descriptions on the poll! They're funny! 6 for me!

    Truthfully, the first time I saw the thread title in the list of threads, my first thought was "multiplayer ladder match rankings" closely followed by "go back to the multiplayer forums"

    I disagree, I think it may be a better RTS than AoK but not as good as AoE.

    Which is a very good ranking, considering how hard it would be for any game to get to the highest ratings. In 'normal' review scores this would probably be around 85%.

    Yes, but then again you always have to discount the reviews in gaming mags. So this 6.18 rating would be a more accurate score - especially since it's been arrived at by those with extensive experience of the game.

    Now if I sat an exam, and was scored 62%, I wouldn't be overjoyed with the result.
