Latest ETW Reviews

Nice link! Just read the review, seems like the game has made a good impression. That review seemed more honest than many, and had the guts to say that the naval battles are pretty inconsequential. He seemed like a real fan of the games to, which is always a plus.

Kieron Gillen is a well-respected and experienced games journalist. I remember reading him in PC Gamer (UK) in the mid-90s.

I didn't know him, but now after reading him ... i like him! Nice find, and also a very good review. Almost equal to the gamestar review (you cannot know),
even the critical points (except the naval story).

I am very confident on next week release. Remember, we all were happy with Med2 (almost all), and ETW is a new step onwards .... something

He also contributes frequently on Rock, Paper, Shotgun. It's a pretty good PC-oriented game news site.

"De onbeheersbaarheid past niet bij wat de Total War-games zo goed maakt." -> means he is unhappy with the sea battles? Good find!

There's been enough reviews that ETW now has an official score on Metacritic.

I thoguht I had better post this. This IGN review has it's own thread, but it should probably be here to.

9.5, a fantastic score considering it's a PC strategy title.
