This game is horrible.
First off AOE III is a racist game where you can not play as a Native American nation in their own continents IN A GAME THAT IS ALL ABOUT AMERICA! You can only play as European or Russians in conquest of the Americas, not as a defender. You can build a building in one of their villages and they will fight for you – and that’s it for the Natives. Its racist and insults all of my ancestors. On the PC, they had to create “War Chiefs” to bring balance to the blatant racism. Microsoft stole that idea from me by the way. I had called it “Colonial Resistance” originally. They never even said thank you, so to hell with them.
Second, the mobile version is only for smart phones and cheap cell phones. You can’t do wide screen and there is no touch screen. In other words, if your Pocket PC has a touch screen which is now STANDARD, you will be playing some lower quality game for cheap cell phones. In short, AOE I on the pocket PC will be much better than AOE III on the pocket PC, because AOE I has better graphics and better play and is touch screen sensitive.
Oh yeah, this game crashes allot. Dont give them your money, search the torrent for free. Better yet, dont even waste your time.
So that is my review, this game is trash. Play AOE I, at least its not racist and trashy and it is much better quality.
I agree, i would add also that the first age of Empires game is not only racist but historically incorect. You can only play as white people, not black or brown? even though most people in the stone age up to the Iron Age where Black skinned. Im not black myself but this is ridiculous and an insult to whoever made it. I mean surely if they had to pick one colour it could at least be brown, (not light brown)to add to that, why dont they have any African civilizations. Did they not know that civilization began in Africa!
