I just got it. Seems to be the kind of thing INTJs would enjoy.

How do the two compare in your opinion?

The install was a royal pain in the ass. I wish I had pirated it, that probably would have been easier.

The game is the best strategy game to come out in years. The music needs work. The strategy portions are a bit simplistic for my tastes, but the battles are amazing. The graphics are superb.

What genre is it? If it is some insanely hard RTS, I'm in. ;)

EDIT: You said it was easy, however. That is somewhat anticlimactic.

After the install the game is first rate. The AI cheats on the harder levels but it still makes for an interesting game.

Medieval: Total War and Medieval II: Total War were my favourite games of their respective times! I've yet to play Empire, but from what I've read it is a drastic change from the earlier two games.

Ever since I started playing Supreme Commander every other RTS I've played bleaked in an instant. Can't even bring myself to play Starcraft anymore. Having never played any of the Total War games I'm curious how it fares against Supcom, if you can compare them. I'd try them out myself but all my disk space ran out. :(

hated the ai in the last one. waiting for more reviews and honest user evaluations that will come before picking this up.
