Downloading now. Thank you for the fast mirror. Hopefully it will run okay on my system. I'm not in the mood to upgrade hardware.

Looks like it will nuke my computer...

My computer is having heart attacks thinking about it.

Guess its time to get that new gig of ram and upgrade to the X700

Couldn't find the specifications needed anywhere. Wondering if my PC could play it. Weak link would be my video card as I only have a Nvidia 5700 with 256 MB of RAM. Main memory is 1.5 GB on a 3000+ Barton Core Athlon with a 160 GB drive.

I think you'll be fine Wayne, I'm only sporting 512MB of ram and an ATi 8500 128mb version (not an LE)

Wow... It sounds like even my crappy eMachines PC can play this. I have Age of Empires 2, plus the expansion pack, and I love it. So, I'm sure I'll greatly enjoy Age of Empires III, as well. Does anyone know when the actual game itself is being released?

[KingSpade]

Looking forward to it, use to be an avid player of AOE II back in the day .

[Darkblade]

I'm hoping to see this game on the PS2 version as well.

[Colin F]

I still play AOE I with friends when I'm bored...

Seems like it would be time to upgrade soon

[Charlie Argueta]

Wow, the images really look good specially the scenaries, it seems the topic is the full American continent or only North America?

Anyway, I'm downloading the demo, thanks for the screen and the official links

See Ya

X700 is crap X800 series is the way to go.

But anyway... I'm going to give this demo a shot, downloading now. The screenshots look stunning.
