![]() But you can’t keep a good franchise down. The world believed it would never again see more Age of Empires games. And after completing a Halo RTS they shut down. The games developers, Ensemble Studios, were in dire straits though. Sales were lackluster compared to Age of Kings but reviews at the time were high. The third, and unfortunately final, game in the series went both 3D and colonial. Add in a more robust multiplayer, a fair few excellent expansion packs and you have a game that stands the test of time. That game somehow combined the world building of a Turn based game with the rock paper scissors combat of a real time strategy game. But the serious really grew the beard for the second, Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings. One of the Real-Time Strategy, RTS, genres giants is almost unique in terms of its scope and its consistent quality. Age of Empires is one of the best multiplayer games I’ve ever played.
