AOE3 demo!!!

Age of Mythology was awful. I'm thoroughly enjoying the demo, but my graphics card can't handle it. It almost crashed once I trained a huge warship and entered a naval battle. I like the size of the ships, though. Satisfying stuff.

The advanced formations, once I discovered how to turn them on, aren't that great, really, but I'm sure that will improve in the full version of the game, along with everything else (I want to see the Highlanders!).

AoE4 (if you consider AoM as the true AoE3), Civ4, Caesar4

Sounds like 2005/2006 will be another banner year for RTS. I suppose there is a new SimCity due soon too.

Civ 4 is going to be real time?!

Demo any good?

I will have to go and ask the MS game support techs upstairs how good AOE3 is...

No. And it never will be.

For real?!?!? Damn how I loved Caesar 3, I even went out and found it in some dusty store a few months ago.

God I hated this demo.It's almost exactly like AoK except with some unnescessary features tacked on to make it seem different. Hell, they've barely touched pathfinding and AI in six years! So far it looks like I'm going to be spending my money on Civ IV instead of this.
