Summary: Great game, but really hard
Review: Great graphics, wonderful gameplay, but it is really hard to fight. I tried fighting the anubites and the red spearmens, and it so hard. Multiplayer on the internet is really crappy. Halo for PC multiplayer keeps me entertained alot more. You actually know who you are and where your enemy is. Everything else in fun. I recommend you to go out and buy it. It's inexpensive and the campaign is fun if you know what to do that is.

Summary: Titans expansion for AoM
Review: I LOVE Age of Mythology. I think I have a review about it somewhere around here. I think it's a great game, it's a lot of fun - I have played it dozens of times and I adore it. It's everything that Empire Earth, Rise of Nations, etc. are, but adds in mythological units as well. I recently started playing the Titans expansion and I'm not sure how keen I am on it. I think its a lot of fun, don't get me wrong. I think, honestly, that the Titans are too overpowering. I used a strategy of "Get a Titan as soon as humanly possible" which seemed to work. As soon as I got a Titan, I could destroy whoever I want with absolutely no worries. I haven't played it on the harder levels yet, which I'm sure are more challenging - but even so, I think the Titans themselves are a little overpowering. That being said.. the Titans are darn cool! Mine would slam his foot down and walls would explode and men would go flying. It's a TON of fun to bring your titan in to a town and just obliterate it! Because gameplay is virtually the same, I'm still having a blast playing it and I do recommend buying the expansion.

Review: This game is great, if you're an Age of kings lover and like the Age of empires series you will love this game, it not only gives you the same features of Age of Empires, but it gives you the attempt to form your own civilization and learn about Ancient civilizations, like the Greeks and Egiptians. This is a great game that Is so much fun, my only complaint is htat it only has 4 invironments.

Summary: Great Game, but lacking
Review: Age of Mythology is a great game but does lack what Age Of Empires 2 had. I did by Age 2 and I was addicted to the game for a long time and what I think what made the game so addicting was that there was so diverse. It is like a completly different game every time you play it, new challenges and changes that you have to adapt your strategy to. And that is what I think the big flaw in Age Of Myth is. There are only three civs to choose from(four if you get the expansion). Sure there are 3 different gods to choose from in each civ, but overall the god choice doesn't make that big of an impact in my opion. You can only go through the game so many times untill you get tired of fighting against an army almost identical to yours, filled with the same type of units as your using. It's not all bad though. It does have amazing graphics and its hard not to love meteors fall from the sky, or a medusa turning a person to stone. I do like the game and it is great fun and a good buy but after playing Age 2 for so long, its hard not to realize the flaws in the gameplay.

Summary: An incredible game
Review: The highly anticipated game, age of mythology is a huge smash! The creators created a phenomonal new computer game that will have you hooked. The graphics of this game are probably the best that i have ever seen. This is a great game. You should buy it.

Summary: A good game, but nowhere near as fun as Age of Empires II.
Review: Age of Empires sucked away 6 months of my life by itself and more time in concert with a few other games so it came as no surprise that I bought this game. I loved AoE II, it's possibly the greatest RTS ever made, and I've played quite a few over time. Unfortunately AoM is not quite the game its predecessor was. Age of Mythology comes with something rare in Ensemble's series of games: a single player campaign. The campaign goes through each civilization in their own land to fight an evil god that wants to kill you, of course. The campaign runs about 30 missions and is merely ok. It's not quite epic, but it's not that bad. But the Age games aren't known for their campaigns, but their skirmishes and multiplayer games. There have been some changes to the game such as the ability to only build 10 houses. After that you have to take over the pre-defined town center areas to raise your population. Relics no longer add to your gold supply, but give special abilities and bonuses. The interface is the same with a few changes. One of these infuriates me! There is no hotkey to stop the units. Command and Conquer started this and I can't use the friggin "s" key to stop my guys! How foul it tis! The usual unit counters are in place with the added myth units. These units kill things like it was second nature. They can be taken down, especially by hero units. Each civilization is given their own units such as the Norse and their Giants, the Egyptians and their Annubites, and the Greek with their Hydra. There is a wide range and each myth unit is assigned to one god. Gods are chosen each time you advance to the next age. Included with the myth units come specail technologies and the wildly entertaining god powers. These powers make the game, easily said. They range from summoning sheep to your town to raining fire on your opponent. If used effectively it can mean the end for your enemies game and send you one step closer to victory. It really is fun to watch rocks land on those crazy egyptian rock slingers, sending them flying 50 meters into the air. Ahh, the delight. With the god powers aside, Age of Mythology is simply... a little bit above average. The units are balanced and everything works well but it just isn't the same. Maybe it's because there are no trebuchets? That's my theory at least. Heaving boulders through the air never got old, so where are my friggin trebuchets? Huh?!

Summary: Top-Notch!
Review: Wow! I love this game! It plays similar to Age of Empires, so anyone familiar with that game will pick up the controls easily. The technical requirements for this game are a little higher though, due to it having a 3D engine instead of a 2D one like some previous similar games. It hasn't been a problem on my machine, but I tend to have a high-end machine since I work in the computer game industry. :) To start this game, you choose a nation, then a god. You build up a civilization similar to so many other games out there. The neat part is that you can get some very unique mythology based units. I prefer the egyptian themed ones, but there are so many to choose from! You build up your army, with your myth units and your heros and go wreak havok on the other civilizations until you're the only one left. :D This game takes a slightly similar view to WarCraft III and makes each different type of civilization (you choose Norse, Greek or Egyptian) have extremely different advantages and disadvantages, instead of making them all the same - just renaming the units. Because of this, you really have to strategize and play up your strengths and realize your enemies' weaknesses. It makes it a little more challenging, but also very fun. I haven't gotten a chance yet to play the Titans expansion - but I am really looking forward to it. I highly recommend Age of Mythology - it's a lot of fun and easy to learn (but HARD to master!!).

Summary: Educational Mythology
Review: My little brother (who is 13) has been hooked into the "Age Of Empires (AOE)" since he was 10. One day, when having nothing to do, I snuck into his room and for some strange reason picked up this game to play. And now... I'm seriously hooked!! It's scary, because I seem to learn more about history on this game then I do at school - and the thing is that I enjoy learning with this game. Although with a few differences, Age Of Mythology is set out in a similar format to the other AOE games. The campaign challenge of this game is based on Arkantos and the Wooden Horse of Troy. You have to build up your own civilization and provide food for your people, collect wood for buildings, and gold for armour. You also have to worship your god, Zeus, to gain the ability to create mythological creatures such as centaurs, medusas and ogres. In conclusion, I would recommend this to those interested in strategy games; greek, viking or egyptian mythology and history; and particulary to primary school teachers, because kids can learn alot from games like this... like I did!!

Summary: Great Game, But Not A Religious Study of Paganism
Review: This is a great game, but not a study of Paganism. Many hours of game play. Part III of Age of Empires. I like the fact that the Norse appease the Gods not through temple building but heroism.
