Summary: Sunday Bloody Sunday
Review: great game. finally something that isn't orcs or gods - been done over and over, yet that is all you ever see. highland warriors gives you something new - a look back and the chance to play with history. william wallace, robert the bruce and king edy I are brought to life with you at the controls. want to know why they called this the bloodiest time in history - well just strap on your sword, prepare your longbow and load the catapult and you will be thrust into the center of the battle. yes - i mean the center of battle for the camera zooms in for close ups, something you never see in a rts. the graphics are great but the voices are somewhat annoying but you get to remove all the buttons from the screen so you can see all the action. if you like the movie braveheart, you will love this game.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Freeeeeedom!!!!
Review: Great game. I have always been annoyed by the camera angles in RTS games. Highland Warriors has full zoom and camera rotation so you can pretty much view the game any way you want! With graphics this good, you are going to be zooming in an out of battles more often than not!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Highland Warriors=Rock'n like Dokken
Review: I am really digging the true 3D aspect of this game, and the rotational camera control is very cool. Where the game play may not be as superior as Star Craft or War Craft, Highland Warriors is very fun to play and there is no doubt that HW is the most graphically superior RTS game to date. Also a must for Scottish history geeks.

Summary: Good concept - doesn't work!
Review: I bought this for ten bucks - it sucks!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: disappointment
Review: I saw this game at best buy for only 20 bucks, and I love the time period, the graphics on the back looked cool so I gave it a shot. Unfortunatly I got kinda bored with it within a couple of minutes.

This game is nothing but eye candy, the graphics are great, but there is no strategy involved at all. At least with games like AOK, there is strategy involved with balacing military units. One redeeming quality could have been the online play, but hardly anyone likes this game enough to play it online.

It's just the same old RTS game with much less depth than a game like warcraft or age of empires. I'd recommend this game to someone 12 years of age or under who just likes to see cool warriors fighting, but not for adults.

Summary: Totally sweet!
Review: Some of the gameplay in Highland Warriors may not be as polished as some of the "classics," but the graphics and options more than make up for it. You can get rid of buttons and icons if they're in the way, you can set your battles and use the camera to zoom in and watch all the units close up, and you'll never have to play the same game twice if you use the map editor. The changing weather, heroes and battle formations are nice touches, too.

Summary: Buggy and lacks finesse
Review: This game "Highland Warriors" is a result of some great ideas and and some nice intentions that was very poorly implemented.

What is the point in having awesome graphics, when the released game can be at best described as a beta software. You create one user profile and next time you start the game u see 4 user profiles with the same name !!! Every time a in game cinemetics appear, you can go and have a nap. What is the use if you need a super computer for this? More over the audio in the in game videos are almost inaudible. Not to speak of instability.

If the creators of the game, provide a patch that fixes these bugs, this game will be worth hours of gameplay.

On a positive side, the graphics are fantastic, story line is impressive.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Incredible Graphics and Zooming!
Review: This game is incredible! The graphics surpass that of the other games. Robert the Bruce and William Wallace...battles that won't be forgotten. The detail when you zoom-in is awesome! This is a must buy, I can't wait to get it.
