Video Game Reviews of Empire Earth 2

Customer Review: Hard, but fun
Summary: 5 Stars

I got this game for my birthday by a friend, I hadn't asked for it or even heard of it. At the time, the other RTS style game was Age of Empires II. Empire Earth blows AOE out of the water. Some reasons:

Pros:
-Cheaper
-More options (Civilization, army, types of soldiers, maps, etc..)
-Easily managable citizens/resource gatherers (My favorite part about the game)
-2000 max population!
-NO limit on men per army (Unlike AOE III where one can only control 50 men at a time.
-Graphics
-Epochs (pronounced "epic")
-Battle graphics
-More types of stats including lists of ones battles (also really cool)
-Alliances and Trade is easy
-Lastly, Technolegy plays a realistic role

Cons:
-Occasionally lags
-Very hard past "easy" setting

Well, there you have it. i would recommend this game to anyone. I own AOE III and I would play this over that. (BTW the EE 2 expansion is only $10 now, and I hear its good)

Description of Empire Earth 2

From Prehistory to the Nano Age of the 22nd Century, Empire Earth serves up RTS on an epic scale. Command history's best known civilizations such as the Greeks, English, French, or Germans, or create and customize your own from scores of unique attributes. Colonize or conquer surrounding territories and establish new settlements. Train more than 200 types of combat units from every era in history, including Earth's future. Instantly enhance the combat abilities of your troops with specific improvements. Lead your armies to glorious victory with the help of Charlemagne, Cromwell and other great heroes from yesterday, today and tomorrow. In Empire Earth, the military option is just one possible path to victory. Convert an enemy's citizens with furtive priests. Instruct a prophet to invoke devastating calamities such as volcanoes, earthquakes and plagues.
Prepare to serve up worldwide conquest on an epic scale once again with Empire Earth 2 -- the sequel to Gamespy.com's 2001 "PC Game of the Year," Empire Earth. Become the world's greatest conqueror of all time by creating, building, and forging the grandest of all empires as you progress through 15 epochs that span more than 10,000 years of history.

This sequel introduces new units, powers, and leaders through three expansive campaigns and once again sets the standard for real-time strategy games. Featuring the latest technology that expands both the single-player and multi-player experience -- including an artificial intelligence system that will adapt to your every move -- Empire Earth 2 delivers dynamic challenges that require focused problem-solving. For instance, you will be forced to adapt to ever-changing weather conditions that will impact your civilization's growth and survival. With each new season or ecological cataclysm, you will be forced to make tough decisions and devise new strategies for survival.

A growing civilization demands keen management, and to help you keep a close eye on your operations, Empire Earth 2 is equipped with an advanced Picture-in-Picture (PIP) management system. With it you can control various regions of your civilization simultaneously in real-time. This, along with the brand-new citizen management system and revamped research system, will help alleviate the need for tedious micro-management, especially during the heat of battle.

Once you master the control of your gigantic empire, you'll be ready to engage real-life opponents over a LAN or the Internet. Empire Earth 2 supports nine types of multi-player games. Tournament features include multi-player cooperative scenarios, a new reward system for military, economic, and empire-expanding superiority, and a tactical planning map that helps coordinate efforts with your team and other players. Take your empire building to a new level with multi-player action that demands strategic knowledge and good negotiating skills. With Empire Earth 2, the future of civilization is in your hands.
