Customer Reviews

A true classic
The review giving this only 2 stars is missing the point - Rome is a far more complex and intricate beast compared to the basic 'tank rush' strategies that generally can win the day in something like C&C.

To add to this you have the Civilization-esque conquest element to the game. To compare this game to something like C&C is like doing the same with an orange and tomato - both very nice if you like that kind of thing but in no way substitutes for one another!

I like both games incidentally however would say Rome:TW is a far more involving game. The more you put in, the more you'll enjoy it. The Alexander expansion is worth doing only after completing the original game. I found Barbarian Invasion not quite to my liking however that again, is personal taste - the game itself works well and adds a different perspective to those who are hungry for more.

At the current price, this is a bargain to get the complete Rome:TW set. Highly recommended.

Rome total war: greatest classic ever
well what can i write about this game, exploding pigs, elephants, spartans and too top all of one of the best ingame finance systems ive ever played what more can a man ask for from a rts, graphics run better then medival total war 2 which is A NEWER GAME, good content as well with the barbarian and Alexander expanisions, the Alexander one is a complete waste but this is a minor set back as barbarian invasion more then makes up for it

Worth every penny, so says my 11 year old son
Like a lot of boys his age, my son can sit glued to the PC for as long as we let him and this game appears to have gone down a treat. He was so impressed when he realised he could get the whole Rome Anthology for such a good price. He loves it and so do his mates.
