Empire Earth Gold Edition

This game what hooked me on RTS games in the first place , yes I had played Age of Empires one and two before though I liked those much I found something lacking there. Pop cap of 175 come on. And havingcavemen develop from the dark age before time until th Space age was one of the grandest apeal of the game in addition to this the battles are still grand in scale. You cannot imagine how disappionted I was about for exaple to discover in Dawn of War II that you only can have at best a patrol skirmish still having in mind the 12+ hour Mp sessions of EE LAN Parties with ten thausands of casualties. Yeah by now the low poly style doesnt hold up anymore but it still is functional and there is grafical onlyone faction though I dont regret anything about playing this for about two decades now. Economy really basic though you wont have stripped the whole map after half an hour like in AoE. And you dont have to deal with just 2 rescourses like in Coc when you are screwed anyway when you are missing one. No iron? go for trech motars instetad! Noch gold ? Roll the riflemen out. The only nippick Ii have here that you only can have a market if you buy it as a civ trait [ i belive it was called stock exchange[ Worth it in best regards.

The base is an ambitious project that for most part is well done. My only complaints of the base games are the campaign mission vary too wildly in difficultly. From from super to easy to punishing hard. The only other complaint the is they recycle way too many assets. The expansion is rushed and easily done. The expansion civ powers range from useless to game breaking. The space in the space is re-textured ocean. Finally the expansion campaigns are easily done, glitch out. Such when I win the game doesn't register my victory. Otherwise this game is a must have for any historical RTS fan.

I love this game, even tho it has some issues. For some reason I can't play in Full HD or more, and other technical issues. Gameplay is really fun. I played this game when i was 7 years old and I still love it.

stands the test of time ...there is je ne sais quoi about this game ...a dev/studio needs to look into a re-release with updated game imho ..but still this game is the best out there right now

As a big fan of AoE and Civilization, this game was almost a dream come true back then. I also liked the campaigns a lot, they had a good presentation and interesting mission designs, however, I always thought the AI is cheating too hard in these and making the campaign needlessly difficult slogs. It was also a lot of fun to just play through the ages in skirmish :)
