I switched to age of empires 3, but I rememebr when I was playing age of mythology the possibilities were endless with the various different heroes and unit structures.

I may revisit it at some point.

I still almost on a weekly basis play either AoE, AoE2 or AoM. Never liked AoE3.

Quite liked it for a while then got bored and went back to C&C. Never actually finished it but keep meaning to go back

Age of Mythology is my favourite RTS game of all time. It's the only one I've ever completed fully and I've started many games in the genre.

Nice, it';s funny how c&c has spent fortunes developing the sequels and they keep on getting crapper over time.. case in oint cnc3 and cnc4, I play red alert 2 from time to time, which beats the rocks of the sequels.

Never played, is the gameplay similar to aoe series, I imagine its just a spin on the setting of the game and the core gameplay is unchanged.

To be fair, the core game is different but has that familiar feeling. You can only build town centers on certain places, usually lower population limit and its much faster paced.
