5.0 out of 5 stars The best Strategy Game Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
unlike any other strategy's that focus on one "era" Empire Earth Gives you the whole history of the world and some more. It's got Air, Land and Sea Combat and you can summon sweet natural Disasters at your command. you can also pick what you want to upgrade on a certain unit (Ex: HP, Flying time, Attack Power, Defence ETC...). This is THE best game i've played...

2.0 out of 5 stars Over-Compensation for Poor AI
BOTTOM LINE: This game has tremendous potential that it simply does not live up to.

The Age of Empires series is a tremendous testament to what can be done with real time strategy. Microsoft stuck with their level of excellence in the realm of computer games with this series. Empire Earth is an obvious addition to this series of games, unfortunately, done through...

4.0 out of 5 stars Le meilleur des trois, Nov 10 2011
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Empire Earth (CD-ROM)
Empire Earth est nettement supérieur au dernier sortie de la série. Il comporte de plus nombreuses unités et la possibilité de développer chacune d'elle permet d'influencer la chaque partie différemment. La possibilité de choisir une civilisation apporte également au jeu. Les campagnes elles aussi constituent un point fort du jeu. Finalement, je ne peux passer sous le silence l'éditeur de scénario qui est, contrairement à d'autres jeux, très complet et facile d'utilisation.

Au niveau graphique, il faut se souvenir que le jeu est sortie initialement en 2000, ce qui en dit long. Le point négatif est le niveau de difficulté de l'IA, soit qu'il faut plusieurs parties avant d'espérer gagner au niveau facile (je n'ai pas encore osé essayer plus difficile.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent multi-player game, July 17 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Empire Earth (CD-ROM)
This is a terrible single player game. Like most, the AI is either too simple a child could win or nearly impossible to win. As a multi-player game it is much better. With a player that can actually adapt to your strategy it really makes for intense battles. I have had this game for 2 years and still play it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best RTS game on the market., July 3 2004

This review is from: Empire Earth (CD-ROM)
Outstanding!Marvelous!A masterpiece!
Are some of the name given to Empire Earth
and they are very true. EE has proved to be the best
RTS in the market right now.Let Me explain why:

14 epochs spanning 100,000 years of history.
Campaigns
Perfect Multiplayer mode.
Skirmish Mode
3D and the ability to zoom all up to see the heat of the battle.

But this game ha its cons too.
Dont even try to play the game in a pc below the minnimun
system requierements.
The fact that the game has 14 epochs make this game not so detailed on the specific age you are playing.

Let me explain the game:this game is about making a strong civilization and defeating the others,this gameis like a mix of AOE(Age of empires)and civilization.You can play starting from the dark age all the way up to the nano age.

So What are you waiting for go out And buy it!!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars sucky, Jun 20 2004

Frank (new york, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Empire Earth (CD-ROM)
this product was the worst and shouldn't be purchased if you don't want to throw 20 dollars down the drain. HORRIBLY DONE. sierra should have been disposed of and a better company like the creators of Medeival total war should make another game. SO THINK AGAIN IF YOU PLAN TO BUY IT. it is boring and nothing is realistic especially the graphics, for example the people are larger than the house. so don't buy this...............for your own sake!

4.0 out of 5 stars Settlers and Civ, Jun 14 2004

This review is from: Empire Earth (CD-ROM)
I have never played Age of Empires so I cannot say too much about that game. I like Empire Earth however. In some ways it looks like the incredibly funny Settlers games and it has some aspects of Civilization. You start in the stone age with rock throwers and through 12 epochs end up in the future.

Sometimes the computer is tough, even in the easy game but it makes it more challenging. Definitely worth the price.

This review is from: Empire Earth (CD-ROM)
It is just an all around good game from an educational standpoint and a action and strategy player standpoint. It covers so many years you get to see how the world reletively developed.

5.0 out of 5 stars hours and hours of game play :-), April 8 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Empire Earth (CD-ROM)
this game is awesome!!! a ton of people make bad comments on it but, those aren't true! here are some good stuff abut this game

spanning 500,000 years from the prehistoric age to the middle ages to the WW2 age and to the nano age of the future!

lots of different units from rock throwers to swords men to archers to tanks to atomic bombers to bazookas and robots!

different maps like highlands, mediterranian and small islands!

some bad things are...

4 different campaigns are litterally impossible

when playing against the computer it is impossible to win unless you use cheats

EMPIRE EARTH ROCKS!(...)

4.0 out of 5 stars Complex Game with Limited AI, Mar 22 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Empire Earth (CD-ROM)
Being a big fan of the Age of Empire series, I didn't hesitate to buy this game. Although there's a certain level of complexity in having the game evolve through different ages and technology, I found that the AI in the game had similar shortcomings as with Age of Empires.

If one is playing through ages, the game is pretty tough with 7 other AIs playing against you. As with Age of Empires, however, the game gets pretty dull if you're playing a fixed time period. The highlands terrains are always the most difficult because you have porous frontiers but, once you establish your territory; the AI seems to lose its will to fight pretty quickly. What you have then is just hours of expanding your territory without much resistance; the time taken is just to move your units and finishing off what's left of the AI.

The graphics are great and the game is difficult in the evolutionary mode: but the advantage is in the overkill of the technology and not the AIs sophistication: this is made evident in the fixed period games. The graphics are great though and the weaponry is extensive.
