Prepare to serve up worldwide conquest on an epic scale once again with Empire Earth 2 -- the sequel to Gamespy.com's 2001 "PC Game of the Year," Empire Earth. Become the world's greatest conqueror of all time by creating, building, and forging the grandest of all empires as you progress through 15 epochs that span more than 10,000 years of history.

This sequel introduces new units, powers, and leaders through three expansive campaigns and once again sets the standard for real-time strategy games. Featuring the latest technology that expands both the single-player and multi-player experience -- including an artificial intelligence system that will adapt to your every move -- Empire Earth 2 delivers dynamic challenges that require focused problem-solving. For instance, you will be forced to adapt to ever-changing weather conditions that will impact your civilization's growth and survival. With each new season or ecological cataclysm, you will be forced to make tough decisions and devise new strategies for survival.

A growing civilization demands keen management, and to help you keep a close eye on your operations, Empire Earth 2 is equipped with an advanced Picture-in-Picture (PIP) management system. With it you can control various regions of your civilization simultaneously in real-time. This, along with the brand-new citizen management system and revamped research system, will help alleviate the need for tedious micro-management, especially during the heat of battle.

Once you master the control of your gigantic empire, you'll be ready to engage real-life opponents over a LAN or the Internet. Empire Earth 2 supports nine types of multi-player games. Tournament features include multi-player cooperative scenarios, a new reward system for military, economic, and empire-expanding superiority, and a tactical planning map that helps coordinate efforts with your team and other players. Take your empire building to a new level with multi-player action that demands strategic knowledge and good negotiating skills. With Empire Earth 2, the future of civilization is in your hands.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best RTS game!
Empire Earth II is probably the best real time stratagy game made. I would choose thid game any day over a Civilization game or Age of Empires game. It is extremly detailed. From what you want your civilization to research in technology to what types of units you want to create. The Historical accuracy of this game is also amazing. Fight with the mighty Roman Empire or the lowly but powerful Minite Men of the American Revolution.

Overall this game is extremly fun. I suggest this game to anyone who loves History or RTS games.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Great graphics - Poor playability
I have been playing Strategy games since 1985. I remember a game originally written for Unix computers that was illegally translated to the PC called Empire. The first RTS games like Age of Empires blew me away and I followed that line until Age of Mythology. At that point, I switched to The Empire Earth series and played Empire Earth until Empire Earth II was released. I couldn't wait to buy it, but I have been very disappointed. The game has great graphics and sound, but the computer opponents don't play very well and are pretty easily defeated. Age of Mythology chased me away from the Age of Empires series and Empire Earth II has chased me away from the Empire Earth series. I am now playing Age of Empires III. It is a much better game. If you are new to RTS games, you will have fun with Empire Earth II but if you have been doing this for a while, I would pass on this game.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - very challenging game
I purchased this game for my husband who is a computer game freak. This game is very challenging and very exciting. The graphics are fantastic.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - awesome
this game is the best strategy war game i have ever played! you can play the time epocs of caveman to future! you can build atom bombers, musketeers, ironclads, robots, battleships and millions of other units! make trade routes, declare war, make armys, and all kinds of things! even make your own costum battle! each different country has 3 special units that only they can make, for instance germanys 3 special units are barbarians, german knights, and panzers. BUY THIS GAME!!!!!



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not that good
i thought the the new empire earth II would be as thrilling and exciting as the first version. Wrong. Requieres too much ram resources, and the game it's just not fun anymore, even tough has some cool new features but the game isn't friendly enough.
