Somehow even better than Rome

This is honestly a superb game even more so than rome and like rome, it is different every single time you play through it. Unlike C&C and age of empires it doesnt have the repetative build a base, wait for a bit, get enough money to buy a few units then destroy the other base, there is so much more to it than that so many factions with unique units and as to how easy it is depends entirely on your decisions as to who to attack, and who to ally with and perseverance as it offers a good 30 hours of gameplay to complete it on your first time round. and for that reason it deserves 5 stars.
A Great Strategy Game

Total War is the no. strategy game. Good graphics, good controls, good and quick loading. Battles are perfectly awesome and the tactics available are amazing. The game is challenging in all concepts of battle, gameplay is very responsive. It gives many choices who to play as and there are so many units to choose from and building an army up takes a while but it's totally worth it for war. Also multiplayer online is brill and is exquisite for long-lasting medieval fights.

this game is just amazing, so much to it! battles are superb, campaign map is amazing by itself, with diplomacy, assassinations and marriage alliances etc, its so good. there are lots of factions to choose from, each with different advantages and disadvantages, such as geographical position or units available. if u have a computer with pretty good spec, this game must be brought as it is incredible, i would also recommend the expansion pack which i have played a lot on, "medieval 2 total war:kingdoms", that is also a fantastic game!
