Recently my computer crashed and all memory has been deleted including my civilization game, and i no longer had the disk. So i went to target to buy a new one and along with that i got the stronghold collection, (stronghold, stronghold 2, stronghold crusader, stronghold crusader extreme, and stronghold legends)American civil war the blue and the gray, and grand ages rome gold edition trand ages rome, and grand ages rome reigh of augustus) All look like war strategy games, has any1 played them?

I've played Rome Total War quite extensively and it is alot of fun. Especialy Barbarian Invasion that comes along with the Gold edition.

Have you tried Civilization? It's good. Get Sim City 4 if you like that kinda game. I've put hours into it.

Ive tried Sim city before, but simcity 3000, not 4, whats the difference? But i was never have been a big fan, i use to play it some, but I always seem to run out of money, bit repetitive too, wish it had more content

Is grand ages rome the same as rome total war? I looked for rome total war at target but it wasnt there, so i got grand ages rome sincei t looks really similar

SC2K is the best. SC 4000 is too buggy/difficult in my opinion.

I like playing tag. Also beer pong and hackeysack.

I totally agree if you can find in. 4000 has many advantages over 3000, save for music. Much better terraforming, and with the Rush Hour expansion, you can drive through the streets.

It litterally looks exactly like rome total war
http://www.grandages.com/us/ theres the site
its not made by activision tho so im not sure

Well, I can safely say it is different from RTW. This game is RTS compared to RTW which is TBS game like civ with a RTS battle element.

Good strategic games?
I've already mentioned Rome, Medieval 2 is worth getting if you really like the time period (for the mods). Empire Total War and Napoleon aren't really worth it but I have heard great things about Shogun Total War.

Sins of a Solar Empire is fun for sci-fi. I also played Rise of Nations a looooong time ago but I enjoyed it.

Disciples II is loads of fun, but I don't think it is what you are looking for.

As far as strategy games go, EU3/any Paradox Interactive game fits my bill.

Personally not a big fan of fantasy games, but disciples looks pretty cool. Is there a big difference between shogun total war I and II, i saw II in target butt it was $50, ive heard of it a couple times but thought i mite wait till price goes down

Eu3 does look good, like a simpilar version of civ but more specific to the time period

Simpler? Not necessarily.

Just from looking at the images online looks more specific to the time period so simpliar thruought history

Massive difference between Shogun 2 and Shogun 1. Shogun 2 just came out this year while Shogun 1 was the very first Total War game made ever. You can often pick up the early TW games in the bargain bin. I managed to find Rome TW Gold for $15.
