Preordered AOE II HD on steam today

Why would they do this with 2? Is it better than 3?

Yes. Like, way better.

AoE II was one of the best video games of all time. I wish there were more HD remakes of older classics that don't run smoothly on newer machines or can't use resolutions above 1024 by 768.

I might do that as well. That and/or sim city.

I have never played sim city, and all this talk has me curious.

finally played about 2 hours today. it's really good.

the story takes kind of an unexpected

turn. the world they created is amazing though. really refreshing when every fps lately is some post-apocalyptic wasteland or military shooter.

half though, it's great so far. i'm an explorer though, so takes me a while to do each "level".

do people really care about backwards compatibility? anyone who has 360 games is probably going to have a 360 right?

AMD? that's it, not buying it

does anyone outside of saul want to be put in a position of having to hook up 200 consoles up to their television in order to play games in their collection?

Seriously, how often do you get an itch to play your original version of Halo?

i don't anticipate a huge delta b/w 360 games and 720 games. based upon those system specs, do you? i mean, we're getting to a point now where we're discussing 5% more textures b/w systems?

also, i've spent a lot of money on XBL games which are all older games/classics that yes, i do play a lot and want to in the future.
