Take Command 2nd Manassas Review

In the interest of full disclosure I want to mention that I was an uncompensated playtester for this game. I've been a Civil War buff for almost all of my 27 years and I've been playing Civil War computer and board games since the age of 6. I can honestly say that this is the best Civil War game for computer that I've ever played. The first time I played MMG's first game, Bull Run Take Command 1861, I knew I was hooked. The game truly makes it feel like you are there. Your heart pounds as the enemy line dissappears behind a ridge and then reappears minutes later...and much closer! The explosions around and over your troops as they take artillery fire indicate that this isn't going to be an easy fight. The game is also extremely moddable. Do a web search on Take Command or Mad Minute Games and you'll find numerous fan sites (including mine) that offer new scenarios, new graphics, new sounds, new OOBs, etc. Honest Abe is correct when he/she says that there is no multiplayer. However, the game is great even without multiplayer. Open Play offers unlimited gaming and you'll never have the same experience twice. If you don't believe me or the other reviewers who gave this game a positive ranking, feel free to try the free demo, available at many places. If you are a Civil War buff and you play computer games, you will absolutely love this one.

Europa Universalis III Review

I have had the game less than a week and have already spent WAY too much time playing. It's great! The AI is very good. Lots of decision making in the form of alliances, builing up your country, manpower, diplomancy, war, merchants and more. Yet, you don't get bogged down "micromanaging" everything. Planning for the long term is necessary and acheiving "victory" is what you make of it. Just surviving for 300 years could be considered a great victory for the likes of Barvaria or Serbia. You have control to make and create history.
The game has been visually redesigned as well. It looks great. It's not World of Warcraft, but compared to EU2 it's leaps ahead of it. An upgrade is already available (for free) from the publishers on thier website. The game comes on one CD and is quick to load. A great game for lovers of history and gaming.
