Nastalgia RTS times with Thorsen and Brock.

**Thorsen** · 07-31-11, 12:35 PM

Hey. Brock and I are going to be playing some super casual super fun Empire Earth multiplayer if anyone else is interested. It's 6 bucks digital download from GOG for the gold edition.

For anyone who doesn't know Empire Earth was a way sweet but sort of strange RTS from back in the day. It's gimmick is that you start in the Stone Age and slowly progress to the Nano Age (I think it has like... 10 ages or something, stone, copper, bronze, iron, dark, medieval, Renaissance, industrial, modern, digital, nano might have forgot some.)

Anyway, it's a sweet ass game with airports, biplanes, nuclear bombs, mechs, tanks, babarians, knights, archers etc, good times to be had. Hit me up on Steam if interested.

I own the physical disc.... can I patch that to be compatible with what you are going to be playing?

Empire Earth was made by a few developers who made the original 2 age of empire games. It had a larger scope than age of empire at the time and was made in 3D unlike age 1 and 2 which were still bitmaps at the time.

A great game, not sure how well it has aged though....

I don't see why not Rush, just make sure you patch it fully. It's worth a shot. I'd be glad to have you along. The more the merrier!

Also, make sure to get Game Ranger. It's the only way to play EE online now since the old Sierra servers went down.

This is definitely one of those "no reason not to" At that price and a digital download you could be joining us very soon.

So you're just playing all old games now or something?

**Thorsen** · 07-31-11, 08:38 PM

Not all, but I love to get some good old fashioned gaming in some times. I grew up on these games and they always hold a special place in my heart. The Original Age of Empires is the first PC Windows game I EVER played.
