Age OF Empires 2 is a true to History epic thrill. Improving on the first one drastically, their are campigns for 5 different civs. Such as the Mongols and the William Wallace Campaign. It's easy to learn to play with easy campaigns. Their are many different types of game formats, the multiplayer is excellent where you can play as the same civ with a friend, and the graphics kick. Buy age of Empires II I know you wont be dissapointed.

This game is awesome! The first time I played it, I loved . I just bought it off Amazon. It combines history and action. But this game is not a history lesson. If you don't want to buy it because you think that is a history lesson, it is not.

Most Awesome Game Ever

Though the macintosh release of age of empires was delayed over a year, at least the folks at destineer had the good sense to pull through and develop the bestselling game for a quickly growing platform. Mac users, constantly suffering from the letdowns of the likes of sierra (Half-Life), and westwood (Tiberian Sun), finally have a reason to rejoice. However, I'm only giving this title 4 stars, due to its late release and consequential obsoleteness on the gaming market.

If you like multi-player strategy games such as Age of Empires or Starcraft, this game is a must-have for anyone who owns a Mac. It has been a long wait since something this good came out.

Okay, I'm long in the tooth and can remember sorting keypunch cards and using a hexidecimal slide rule. My computer limits were reached when I would use EDLIN to change the AUTOEXEC.BAT files. After that, I relied on my son to load programs and explain the Internet.

However, AOEII (Mac) fits well with the "old age and treachery" beating youth and strength adage. I play against my son: I use the iMac and he uses his iBook (something about an Airport, LAN, whatever). AOEII provides a very wide range of options for command and control and enables an exciting gameplay. The tutorial campaigns are good - the first time through - and it gives the basic commands. Playing against the computer is also a nice learning path...but the real challenge comes in playing head-to-head against another skilled user: AOEII (Mac) is superb in that category.

The only downside was intially getting a number of "out of sync" errors that would collapse the game. However, an online patch fixed it and we've been game error free since then.

I have tried "World of Warcraft" and found it to have marvelous graphics and storyline, but AOEII (Mac) is absolutely great for a good two-to-three hour campaign that is just plain fun...and at my age that's saying a lot.
