Review - Age of Empires III: The Warchiefs

In this review, I take a look at the first of two expansions for Age of Empires III.

ESRB Rating: Teen (13+) - Blood, Violence

All settings maxed at 1024x768 resolution. Watch in high quality (480p) for best visuals.

You can purchase this game on Steam (including the original game and The Asian Dynasties) here: http://store.steampowered.com/app/105450/

Minimum System Requirements:
-Windows XP/Vista/7
-256MB RAM
-1.4GHz Processor or faster
-64MB Graphics Card (must support hardware T&L)
-2GB Hard Drive Space
-Age of Empires III base game required

To clarify my review scores (they're "rough" scores, meaning it's not supposed to be some sort of percentage or anything):
1 or lower = Terrible. Avoid at all costs.
1.5 = Has a few redeeming qualities, but still sucks and should be avoided.
2 = Mediocre (Sub-par). You'll probably want to avoid this one.
2.5 = Underwhelming, but playable.
3 = Average. Worth playing, but probably not at full price.
3.5 = Good, but has issues.
4 = Excellent, but has a few problems that could probably be fixed through patching.
4.5 = Exceptional. Better than 4 but still has a few problems that could be ironed out.
5 = Outstanding. Stuff in this category is pretty much "must own."

Great review, just ordered AoE3 Gold for less than 10 bucks, looking to add Asian Dynasties in the future. Your review for that was great as well. Glad I finally got around to getting this game, but it's never too late to enjoy AoE!

[DWTerminator]

Glad you liked them, and I hope you enjoy AoE3.

You say uh and um a lot, you should really try using a script if you don't already

[DWTerminator]

My reviews are worse when I try using a script.
