    Empire Earth; yet another Age of Empires spin-off? The short answer is "yes!", because apart from the improvements in graphics, the ability to move the camera angle and the considerably longer timeline, they are practically identical. One of the key features in this game that separates this game from any other is its extra long range of epoch! In fact it goes from prehistoric (millions of years ago) right up to the Nano Age (some time in the future!). There isn't really... Read more

    Although it is not perfect, Empire Earth is an excellent addition to any gamer's collection. The replay value of Empire Earth is incredible, and is something that will keep you hooked for hours. Although it may appear similar to Age of Empires and Cossacks: European Wars, this is a whole new battlefield. No other developer has attempted to take all of human history, and successfully combine it into one single game. Stainless Steel Studios have succeeded in doing so with... Read more

    Well i realise that the graphics may not be up to scratch but it is an amazingly fun game to play. I also love EE2 but they say , the original is always the best, i agree here. Skirmishes can last for hours and the story mode is good as well. The main advantage/disadvantage(some people like it some don't) is how you can go up an epoch. Basically you can go up an age.

    I played this game for several years and had the expansion as well, I was into the game and the multiplayer was amazing so I was dissapointed to see this go. I had reached a clan level and loved every second of it. The game has a beautifuly polished single player with an amazing random game, and create your own gametype to go along with it, by far the best rts game I have played even today. Read more

    Fun: This review is from: Empire Earth (PC) (Video Game) When I was younger, much younger, I played this game and just about understood it enough for it to be a great laugh. Its taken me all these years to actually purchase the game and you know what? Definitely worth it. You can't beat spending hours at a time fruitlessly attempting to wipe out a civilisation, trust me, they're like cockroaches, they'll always come back. But yeah, obviously not a perfect game, but...
