Nah, at least not from what I've heard about it, which isn't much.

You tried Oblivion and Prey? Not much to say for Prey beyond it's a good stress test. Oblivion on the other hand is a nearly perfect PC game, but I would guess you've played it already on one format or another?

WHat a time for PC gaming.

F.E.A.R. and Oblivion kan still bring the most powerful PC to it's knees.

Age of Empires III looks pretty good to.

when we having that graw 1v1 on nowhere?

Post by **Grudge** » Sun Sep 03, 2006 5:37 pm

I've been playing Rise of Legends a while, but I can't say that I'm very impressed by the graphics or the gameplay. It's a decent enough RTS, but nothing special. I'm still on the Vinci campaign though, maybe the other ones will be more exciting.

great
