2.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this version if you want to play online, August 22, 2009
By 
Jeff B (Bozeman, MT United States) - See all my reviews
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Rise of Nations Gold Edition (Video Game)
This is a great game, but this particular edition is not what you should buy if you want to play with others (LAN or Internet). Despite the product image, this is the Ubisoft gold edition, which has version mismatch problems with other gold editions. It will not auto update to the same version as the normal Thrones & Patriots, so if you try to join a game you will get an error saying you need something like version 07.25.00.15705, even though the in game versions match.

There is a way around this which involves creating an ISO without the patch on the disc and using a No-CD executable, but it's a hassle and not worth it.

If you're going to play by yourself, this edition is fine. If you want to play with friends, look elsewhere (unless they all have the Ubisoft edition).

4.0 out of 5 stars The Art of War for PC Games, December 16, 2008
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Rise of Nations Gold Edition (Video Game)
Rise of Nations is a very good game. It brings The Art of War to your finger tips. You learn real-time war tactics along with the history of many nations. This game is educational as well as entertaining for the thinking mind.
