Those fantastic graphics do actualy interest me more then the gameplay.
I just can't wait for the new era of graphics, it will be a whole new experince. Keep that up, you guys at the studios.

Microsoft Game Studios and Ensemble Studios today announced that Age of Empires will make its third appearance on PC's later this year. The new game continues the historical timeline of the series. It picks up where Age of Empires II: Ago of Kings left off with the player taking charge of a European nation ready to explore the New World of North America.

In addition to the expected new units and structures the change in scenery offers unique opportunities. It should be interesting to see Ensemble Studios' skill with creating rich, detailed environments applied to Native Americans as well as Industrial Age units. In addition to the visual quality, gameplay innovations are promised that include the concept of a "Home City" and an immersive new single-player campaign spanning three generations.

I wonder how the unit stats are going to be balanced out... I mean, Arrows vs Rifles... I wonder who wins :roll:.

Well, Microsoft GS has promised that they will have the battle system, and stats evened out before release...but I am still a bit skeptic about it.

That's pretty impressive. Never really got into the previous games, but I may just have to give this one a go.

Ahhh yes.....good 'ol AOE. I remeber playing this game back in high school
Our tech ed teacher was a big fan so we would have tournaments during class.
(this was my favorite class of course)

I have not played it in a few years, but might have to check the new release out!
