AGE OF EMPIRES VS CIVILIZATION CODE
AGE OF EMPIRES VS CIVILIZATION SERIES

The oldest so far is an 82 year old fellow who's been playing it since Civ2. I was perusing the forums for the Civ games and can you believe that there are a lot of 50+ men playing this thing? And a lot of them have been doing so since the first Civ game came out around 14 year ago.

Can't wait to see what the modding community does with the game once it comes out later this year. Civ3 itself was pretty moddable, but Civ4 is basically the new king of moddability. That speaks volumes, since we all know that the more moddable the game is, the more long-term replay value it has.

In addition, I also found out that Civ4 will be the most moddable game out there, you can virtually change anything and everything short of the source code for this game. Well after checking the additional info on both games, I can tell you that the upcoming Civ 4 will win hands down as far as replay value is concerned, over the also upcoming AOE3. so in the end you can't really compare the two series.

AGE OF EMPIRES VS CIVILIZATION SERIES

I like the Age of Empires series more than the current Civilization games - but the thing to bare in mind are that they are both in different genres. I used to love RTSes and TBSes, so i know my stuff in this respect. Civilization can give you hundreds of hours more gameplay time than an Age of Empires game. simply because Age of Empires III is exactly the same as the others - just with more little features (which will get old once you start playing online competitively) and prettier graphics. If you want epic, more culture-oriented games based around going through history, then i would go for Civilization. So yeah, if you want quick 30 minute skirmishes which get repetitive, then go with Age of Empires. they have no more depth than figuring out the best build orders and who uses their economy to best effect. The key to winning is by learning these and being good with as many races as possible. Now the thing with RTSes like this, is that there are set build orders which work best for different situations.

What do you do if your enemy raids your hunting villagers? Do you send raiders to counter them? Do you move your villagers somewhere else? Whatever, you get it. To be good in them you need a combination of quick-thinking, adaptability, and patience. I am, in all respects a veteran of the series and am pretty damn good at the games online.

I've been playing the Age of Empires series (all of them), since the very beginning.
