Age of Empires 3

Don’t buy it. Well, unless you are willing to put up with frequent bugs, frequent downtime, and frequent frustration. All in all it is a fun game..  when it works.

You’d think a game made by a company with so much money, and backed by Microsoft, would have been tested more thoroughly. Yeah my scripts have bugs, but I fix them quickly and I’m a one man show - I can only test them so much. These guys have billions of dollars and a whole team of people working on it.

I defenitaly think it is a fun game, so maybe some time you’ll see me post something like “hey I haven’t had any problems lately” and you can go buy it. But right now it is annoying having to turn my firewall off every time I play.
