This game let's you make your own civilization where you control them and what they do. You can fight battles you have to try and protect U're king.It's pretty fun I'd give it a 4/5.

this is good game. Some people compare this game to Empire Earth. come on! desinger of Age of empire 1 made that game so it has to have improvement. I think aoe2 is good game and good game play. they need to work on graphic little but other then that everything is fine.
so don't refuse to buy this game. i like games that made by microsoft personally.
This game rocks!

I'd been playing AOE1 before this and it was one of the best games I'd encountered. This one totally blows it away. Better graphics, more tech capabilities and better civilization armies make this game worth every penny. For all those reviewers on this site who say stick with another game (Warcraft or Seven Kingdoms or whatnot), give AOE2 a chance.

Age of Kings is the awsome sequel to the first Age of Empires game. If you like ral-time strategy games this is for you. Takes so much skill that its hard to beat the first mission. Like slaughtering people? Great game for that too. You can hack away as much you want. Most cheats don't worf though. Try enter plus robin hood for the ultimate award. 1000 gold!!!!!!
The Best Game Microsoft has made

When i first got this game all my friends said it was horrible, but they were wrong. I was hooked to it, and when I should have been doing important things, I was playing this game. Everything goes into detail so you can really do what you feel is neccesary to build an empire!

Just a little comment reading the other customer's review. AOE II is a very good game for sure, but frankly can we talk about strategy in this king of game?? You just need to click as quickly as possible with your mouse to gather ressources to build a huge army and then send it to the ennemy base. More or less, if you have more units you win...
If you take the ennemy army by the back it won't make any difference, no tactical advantage!!! Moreover the formations (line, flank...) are more a gadget than something useful, it doesn't give any particular advantage contrary to Cossacks...
