I recently sold my AoE 3 Gold Edition, and bought this one so I could play The Asian Dynasties, and it was well worth it. I loved playing the campaign; I think playing as the Indians were the best. To top off the whole collection, you have multiplayer internet. On an average day at the high time, there is around 2000 people on, and at the low time about 700 people. No matter what time you go on you will always find a game to play. I love playing the online costom made maps such as Colloseum or Mutation. After beating campaign and when you are getting bored of playing computers, playing online is the best, it is like the cherry on top. I highly recommend buying this game.
