    The whole thing looks pretty mediocre.

    Pass.

    looks like an amateur's mod of the aoe2 engine.

    Hmmm

    I got it ..

    I play it ..

    I like it ..

    not that its a visually impressive game .. but if you like Star Wars .. and you like RTS ... its not bad at all.. AOE2 wasnt a bad game nor a bad engine

    First got to finish Stronghold for my artcle ... also working on Ghost Recon .. then BattleGrounds is at bat

    i'm not really all that into starwars but i play this with my friend.
    just because we really like aoe2 and this is pritty much the same thing only with all new units and buildings and crap.
    if you dont really really really like aoe or starwars its not even worth warezing.

    I played it a few times since I got it. I'm a huge Age of Empires fan so I thought it would be ok.

    First, the graphics arent on par with age of kings. The animations are poor and clunky and the terrain is just off a little bit.

    second, the game play doesnt seem smooth at all. Unlike Age of Kings there isnt enough resources on the map in a standard game to make a full army of the most expensive units even if you save up.

    Basically its a good game, but as was said earlier, it looks like a mod that a group of people might have made for fun. It just isnt the level of professionalism that Emsemble puts in their games.
