Empire Earth Gold Edition

I use to play this game many many years ago. It was in fact my first pc game I had ever played, and I loved it. It may not have been perfect there are many things looking abck that I wish the devs would have done, like displaying the garrision bonus for settelments and the range of said mechanic. But for its time the graphics were amazing, the interface was exelent andi very intuitive (a must have for any rts). The sound track was good but as a kid I was never concerned with such things. This game has held up against all odds and in the wake of 2 sequals that just sucked. Which leads me to the negative thing I have to say about this game, Curerntly in the video game industry devs are capatilizing on remasters and remakes. But sierra has yet to cash in on this gold mine. Pun totaly intended. I would be happy with and pay 60 for an HD remaster. You wouldnt even need to add in MP the community has been going strong with out gamespy anyway. 5/5 Best RTS to ever grace the PC.

and now I regret it. The zoom is very close, the minimap is low-res. The campaign difficulty is inconsistent and in skirmish, the AI cheats so hard it's simply not fun. By the time you have two settlements and begin to gather resources, the AI already has three barracks, two siege factories, two more military factories and a mill and starts to build units - including units that cost gold, which you dont start with. And once you built your first two military buildings, the AI already sends multiple units to your base. On easy difficulty.

Don't waste your money. This game used to be fun and I still love it but since windows 7 the graphics are so bad the game is unusable and no matter what I looked up nothing could fix it. Such a shame.

The Gold edition of Empire Earth 1 is the best RTS game I've ever experienced! It's very challenging so if that's what you like, then you love EE gold edition. Takes you thru many ages including some futuristic ages. Very fun and addictive! We have a LAN group tha has been playing since it came out

This game has been in my life for over 10 years easily, and I have been drawn to play it for hours on end every couple days or weeks. Even if I forget about the game for months, I always play it all night randomly. This game is simple, addicting, and I hope you don't have kids, pets, or a significant other, because they can kiss your attention to them goodbye as soon as you enter this highly addicting game. It is such a comforting, relaxing game and it is a great stress reliever. You can play easy mode and lay back with only an opponent or two, or play hard mode with many challenging computer opponents. 10/10 will play forever.
