February 16, 200619 yr 7.8, but 6.5 in gameplay from IGN for a hyped game should cause warning bells to ring. http://pc.ign.com/articles/688/688963p1.html
February 16, 200619 yr Seconded. I'll believe it when I see it....from Gamespot, that it. (w00t) <---I don't know why we're doing this, but let's see how long we can keep it going!
February 16, 200619 yr You lose! (w00t) OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
February 16, 200619 yr No matter. Civ4 has destroyed enough of my sparetime already. "Some men see things as they are and say why?""I dream things that never were and say why not?"- George Bernard Shaw"Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man."- Friedrich Nietzsche "The amount of energy necessary to refute bull**** is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it." - Some guy
February 16, 200619 yr I have no doubt that Civ 4 is a better strategy game. But Empire At War is what I will get first, largely because I'm on a big SW kick right now.

February 16, 200619 yr No matter. Civ4 has destroyed enough of my sparetime already. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Civ4 has pretty much destroyed any standard RTS's chances with me. Go twitch. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
February 16, 200619 yr Who here actually played through the demo and then thought "omg, preordering now!". I know I didn't. I thought it was pretty meh as game over all, and poor for an RTS. There are none that are right, only strong of opinion. There are none that are wrong, only ignorant of facts
February 16, 200619 yr No matter, Star Wars fanboys will flock on this like flies. Reason why Lucas Arts will never gain their former glory...

I thought it was pretty meh as game over all, and poor for an RTS. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I never think "OMG Preodering!!!11". The only game that I have ever pre-ordered was Civ4. On the other hand I like the demo enough that I knew I was going to purchase this game. Probably not immediatly though as I have 10GB of C&C games to go through. :cool:

February 16, 200619 yr I will not buy EAW for some time. I think it is a pretty stylish idea, but I am getting Star Wars burned out. I am more intrested in RPGs at the moment.

Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
February 16, 200619 yr NO SPOILERS...sorry..I don't even know what will happen to the original storyline now, that Westwood is dead
February 16, 200619 yr I am struggling to remember a time before Plano's SW fetish ... recall fails ... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> as far as computer gaming goes, it was the KOTORs that got me in. basically, I avoided CRPGs in general for the longest time. not because I didn't think I would like them, but because I knew I'd spend too much time on them. so, while many folks look to Balder's Gate or PST as the Holy Grail of the CRPG, for me it is the KOTORs (I also don't mind admitting that I liked Morrowind quite a bit). prior to the KOTORs, the only computer games I spent any real time on were: Team Fortress and Age of Empires II. my how things have changed!
February 16, 200619 yr I played the Empire at War demo, and I have to agree that is a meh. Not bad, but not amazing either.
February 16, 200619 yr The biggest selling point for me is that I can bulid cool imperial navies. THough it's handicapped by typical RTS mechanics. In the end I think I'll be passing this one over. To be honest, I wanted more of a Rebellion type game, without the horrid interface.

February 16, 200619 yr Lucasarts is irrelevant as far as I'm concerned now. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
