I thought that when i was a buying a 90$ game pack it would be good. The menu runs fast but the game play i just to slow. i would not recommend the game. My Computer did have the requirements if you were wondering.

Not worth it

I bought this game based on the positive reviews here but after playing the game I'm convinced that the game creators posted many of these reviews in an attempt to market their product. In my opinion this game is on par with games that Blizzard was putting out 10 years ago. Warcraft 3 certainly is a more compelling strategy game than Age of Empires. I wouldn't waste your money on it. I was bored after the first few campaigns.

Age of Empires III
Guess I am in the minority viewpoint...

I really liked the first 2 AOE but do not like this game at all. I think they changed too much. When C & C made the jump to 3D, their game changes seemed to go more along with the history of the game. I really dont like home city feature. I dont play often but when I do, I like the fact with AOE 2 I could just pic a society, this game seems to require to much "effort" (lack of better word) to develop a game if you are just looking to kill a bit of time. Graphics are great and I think it is a well built game that runs flawless on my intel imac, just too much of a departure from the game play of the other AOE.
This is all coming from a very seldom game player so take it for what its worth.46 of 85 people found this useful

I have an iMac Duo-Core 2 2.16 with 256 MB nVidia 7600GT and 2 GB Ram.
I downloaded the new patch to fix the crashes and it did not make any difference.
I Bought also a PC version and run it on windows side of mac and still the same.
What do you expect?. IT IS MICROSOFT.

Meh!

I bought this game expecting much more. What I now realize is that I could have saved my money. It looks just ok, but I am disappointed at how I can't zoom out more and that the graphics unit-wise are very poor. In addition, the campaigns are a snore fest compared to Age of Empires 2.
Go with something else, there are much better strategy games on the Mac than this.
