I remember getting this as a christmas present in my childhood. But to my dismay our family was going on a christmas cruise that year, and I didn't get to play this before we left. So I spent much of the cruise with the manuals browsing through mech weaponry and stats, while anxiously waiting for the cruise to be over. Luckly the wait was worth it, and I kept playing the ending's training scenarios long after the main story had finished.

Played this on a 8086 EGA PC clone back in the day. Loved the order based strategy system - desperately trying to capture rather then destroy mechs just to make the later levels easier. The modern game is good but doesn't recreate the magic.

Age of Empires: Collector's Edition
Age of Empires: Collector's EditionAge of Empires is a real-time strategy game where players build a great civilisation out of an Ice Age tribe over a period of 10,000 years. Players accomplish this by exploring their surroundings, conquering other civilisations and accumulating wealth. Key elements include building and controlling units and managing resources. Age of Empires 2: The Age of Kings starts the player out in the Dark Ages, roughly when Age of Empires ends. The goal remains the same: use advanced technology and troops to establish your civilisation's dominance. But now the player has better toys: each of the 13 civilisations have unique buildings, soldiers and advantages. The Teutons have Knights, for instance, while the Vikings have Berserkers. Winning the game requires military dominance or the construction of wonders of the world. The single-player game is fun, but most players love Age of Empires 2 for its wildly popular multiplayer component. Thousands of civilisations rise and fall every day as gamers around the world compete in matches over the Internet. This bundle includes Age of Empires: Gold Edition, containing the original Age of Empires and Age of Empires: The Rise of Rome Expansion, plus Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings and Age of Empires II: The Conqueror's Expansion. The bundle is great for fans of the series to have all of the titles in one place; and for newbies it is less expensive than buying all the titles separately.
