Video Game Reviews of Rome: Total War Gold Edition
Customer Review: Epic!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an older game.. but considering its price and playability... Its a win-win. This game is Epic from the civilization feel of the strategic map to the 3-d battleground similar to age of empires, this game has it all!Customer Review: Rome Total War/Barbarian Invasion (Gold Edition)
Summary: 4 Stars
This game is worth the price. It has graphics that won't slow down a modern computer, plus hours of gameplay. All that it needs are a couple of patches which can be found by [..], other than that the game has few glitches and is extremely fun. Definitely a must have. Customer Review: Rome: Total War
Summary: 4 Stars
Rome: Total War is a strategy game developed by The Creative Assembly, and is one of the most popular games in the Total War franchise. I really enjoyed this game for two reasons: the historical elements, and the strategy. The game is set during one of the most interesting time periods in ancient history, the rise and fall of the Roman Empire. I really loved learning about this in school, so playing a computer game based on it was a blast. As for strategy games, this is one of the best in my opinion. The basic controls are easy to learn, while the advanced controls are there as well. This appeals to both the casual and competitive gamers, making the game well-rounded. The only complaint I have is a very minor one: the graphics. This is not the prettiest game ever made. However, when it was made it had decent graphics compared to the other games of the time period (around 2002, I think). Thus, I give 5* for fun and 4* overall because of the graphics. If I could give it 4 and a half, I definitely would.Customer Review: Bad game.
Summary: 1 Stars
It's as simple as that. I know there're good reviews all over for it, but for me, it didn't make the cut. It feels like it was made at the transition between dinky Caesar city-sim games and the first of the Civilization series. Maybe I'm not too tolerant of oldies I simply hadn't grown up with, but this game seems overwhelmingly awful. Battle controls are difficult and restrictive, graphics are moderately-pleasing but unnecessary extravagant in the tactical map and very sub-par in the info boxes.
The game offers no tutorial, crashes often, has extremely few playable factions, uninteresting play options and awkward turns. Knights of Honor, very much like this game in design, is way better. For whatever other elements you're seeking out of a medieval strategy game, consult the other reviews - but for me, use to higher-end games - this barely kept my interest from the start.
Customer Review: Rome Total War- what a great and in-depth game!
Summary: 5 Stars
If you're looking for a realistic and in depth war/strategy game then look no further! If you have a little patience and want to immerse yourself into the Roman War era then this is the game for you. Not an easy game at first, but unlike anything else I have ever played. Nothing is more fun than building an immense army and then slaughtering the enemy from a massive attack on all sides- then chasing down and butchering the last remnants of your foe in order to send a clear message of fear to all those who oppose you!
