Summary: Very good, but not Great
Review: I almost gave this game a 3, but it really is FUN to play, so a 4 is in order.Just as with the original game, the story line and voice acting are outstanding. The new myth units, special abilities and the titans themselves are really great. And as with the original version, the graphics are astounding. However, two of the campaigns were really jumpy on my AMD 2800+ with 1.5 gigs of RAM. But more importantly, the whole expansion pack is too short. In "moderate" mode I was able to complete the entire series in a single evening (7 hours). For the price, I expected a bit more. Don't get me wrong, what was there was a really great game, but we didn't get a chance to re-visit Tartarus (perhaps a campaign to revive Chiron to help fight against the Titans) and we only got a chance to fight a few of the Titans. Unless they plan to release another expansion pack within the next few months, this one leaves you feeling empty. If you are a TRUE fan of AOM, then you have to get this expansion pack, but take my advice and start off playing it in the hardest mode. That way you won't finish it in a single night. And be sure to update it before you play. I forgot to do that and it locked up my computer.

Summary: THE BEST PC GAME OF THE YEAR!
Review: And here I was thinking that it couldn't get any better. I mean, really, how could Age of Mythology possibly get any more interesting, exciting, addictive, and fun? Well, the long-awaited "Age of Mythology: The Titans" does just that. It is, simply put, AMAZING! Everything you loved about Age of Mythology is back, but this time it's all BIGGER and BETTER. The new culture, the Atlanteans, adds tons of new myth units, cultural attributes, god powers, maps, buildings, upgrades, characters, gods, heroes, and the deadly Titans which can overpower all other units if created and can be created by all cultures. You can even play around with time! The new graphics and music help to enhance game-play to a level not previously reached by Age of Mythology. Ensemble Studios have also polished basic aspects of the game. The new "repeat build" button will continue to supply you with units as long as long as you have the resources. If found this to be very helpful as I got to concentrate on other aspects of the game (such as destroying all enemies) instead of constantly commanding "create new unit" every time I lose one. The new campaign dwarfs that of Age of Mythology. It focuses primarily on the Titans and is so incredibly involving that you can easily play for six hours without noticing. The story is much better and the scenery and construction of the various landscapes is far more detailed and realistic. This is a 5 star game that isn't to be missed by fans of the original Age of Mythology or the Age of Empires games. It's all well worth your money, I assure you. Once you pop this CD into your disk drive you'll open the door to hours, days, weeks, months, years of exciting new game-play. Don't miss it.

Summary: A Very good, very addictive RTS game
Review: As a long time player of the Age of Empires games I was a bit skeptical about the introduction of "mythological" - read magical - characters. But this added a dimension to the game that AOE veterans will appreciate. The story is fun although a bit corny. The best things about this game include: The graphics, they are great, a real step up, which I guess we'd all expect. The AI is a little smarter and less restrained than in the AOE series. When you play it on the hardest level you'll see it. The Myth Characters. They add another dimension to your economy. In battle they're cool to watch, although not all that more useful than "mortal" units. All in all MS has come up with a very good, very entertaining (time wasting) game.

Summary: Wowwwwweeeeeeee!
Review: I am 52 and have played many games but this is by far my favorite. I have been playing it up to 8 hours at a time. Most every other PC game I had tried failed to keep my interest or simply did not work. I am addicted to this one. If I was not retired I would probably get fired for stayin home so I can play this game. Fun way to learn ia bit about Mythology too.

Summary: Great game.. but extremly unstable
Review: I have to say, the game in itself is just great. I first bought it because of the reviews I had read right here, and I absolutely do not regret the purchase. I'm having a great time going through the campaign - I actually just finished the main campaign, and downloaded the little extra (free!!) one from the AOM website. That being said, I do have to say that there is something wrong with it. From day 1, the game has quit (unexpectedly, as worded on the MS support website). I have spent over 2 1/2 hours on the phone with MS tech support reps, and all they could do was to walk me through the exact same steps that are listed on the website under that particular issue - that wasn't much of an help. They acutally still call me once in a while to know if my issue was resolved (it still quit "unexpectedly"). needless to say, the issue remains. I don't think I am the only person with that problem, and I think MS doesn't really know what causes it.
I love the game, and I put up with it closing on its own, but it's really frutrating. I almost spend more time saving it then actually playing!!

Summary: Good, but... that's it
Review: First of all, I must say that Age of Empires 2 is almost impossible to top. And Ensemble was not able to top it. Age of Mythology is a good game. It has wonderful graphics. Godpowers are fun, over all, it is good. However, there are only 9 civs, and broken into closely related groups of three. AoK had more.
Bad: ESO is not for friends. It is good in the fact you can quickly find a game and play... but it is much harder to interact with others. AoK was played on the zone with an instant messenger and chat rooms in every game area. ESO has just a chat area that all messages go to, even friends, and they are hard to distinguish from other clutter. A small chime goes off, but it just isn't good enough. The community in AoK is awesome, but AoM just doesn't have it.
There is something about AoK that draws you back to play. Something that makes it the greatest computer game yet created. AoM is fun... but just doesn't have that... thing. You will enjoy it, but you will tire quickly and move on. I still can't move on from AoK.

Summary: Amazing
Review: Ok, I've had AoM for about 8 months and it's taken me that long to write this review because I've been hooked to the games. In fact, it's about 3AM as I write this review, only because I took a pause in the game to review it. This game is AMAZING! The storyline is great (mesmerizing the first time you play and engrossing every other time) and the speed and skills of the computer player match perfectly with your level of skill. What is truly amazing is the 3D graphics. I LOVE being able to scroll my mouse button and have the entire map move around for me so I can see the fight from a different angle! Believe me, that makes a difference in the middle of a big fight. The technologies are great and the God Powers are fun to use. Having played online, I hate when people use the cheats, but some of them are really funny. AoM also comes with Random Map, where you can hone your skills against a computer player(and the computer is really smart! I've had to learn to play much more aggressively in order to win) and Edit (where you can create your own map). I love creating maps then having friends play on them to critique.
All in All, this is a must buy GAME. I can't wait for Microsoft to put out the new campaign!

Summary: Fun but short
Review: As much as I enjoyed this game, I was saddened that it only took a little over a week to beat. The single player campaign was very interesting to play. My favorite section of course was the Eqyptian campaigns. I HIGHLY recommend this game to anyone that enjoys the "Age of _____" series.

Summary: RTS Games get better and better, and this is no exception!
Review: I am a huge fan of RTS games. (Age of Empires II, Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds, Age of Mythology, Empire Earth, and all the expansion packs in between) This is in the top of my favorites! This is like Age of Empires, only it has a mythological twist to it. You can call on god powers, create mythological units, get favor etc. Here are some Pros and Cons to it. Pros: Amazing Graphics
Detailed Gameplay
Great RTS
Call on more than 30 God Powers, which are awesomely detailed
Pretty much everything is real Greek, Egyptian, and Norse Mythology Special Attacks (Throwing, jumping, etc)
Nice selection of maps
Great 32-level single player campaign
Good Cinematics
Good Tutorial Cons: Limit 10 houses A couple of tiny glitches (one time I had a Mountain Giant, he was walking and suddenly he just started walking horizontally
And then in the campaign, it tells you to get 1000 wood, then build the Trojan Horse, I did that, then I got 1000 more wood and then the objective screen comes up again telling me to build the Trojan Horse again. Wierd huh?)
But both of them only happened once. Well the game is awesome, so if ur an RTS fan, get this game now!
