    The Glory Of Rome!

     The Total War series is known for oustanding quality. And this game stands above the rest. 
     
    GOOD: 
     . Real time battles are fun and really make you think. 
    . Amazing sound design, from the small things like the sound of footsteps of your infantry to the amazing soundtrack by Jeff Van Dyck. 
    . Graphics are great for time 
    . Easy to learn battle system, and very deep to master. 
    . Online battles are a superb addition. 
    . Deep Campaign 
    . Historical battles 
     
    BAD: 
    . Sever interface for online battles was a little too rushed 
    . Senate can be annoying at times 
     
    OVERALL: 
    If you ever wondered what an epic stratergy video game was, Rome Total War is the game you will first think of. It is addictive as it is fun, you should pick it up ASAP! 
     
    SCORE: 
    9.0
