Age of Mythology and its expansion are worthy contributors to the Age of series. All Age of Empires 3 added was pretty graphics. The "Select between governor or nobleman" when you advanced in age originated from which minor God to choose from when you advanced in Age of Mythology.

IMO, it worked way better in Age of Mythology.

Age of Mythology is so much better than AoE3. AoE3 is just re-touched version of Mythology but minus the temple units.

AoE3 should have come down in price ages ago.

I like to use Rah and summon animals in Mythology. One of the biggest problem that Mythology suffered is the online registration thing with our cd-keys. Be careful so that you dont buy any European packaging since it used several similar cd-keys which screwed up gamers.

But isn't that a bit late? - Or, did I miss to hear about new expansions lately..?

Edit: Below: Ahh I thought so but wasn't sure.. Yeah kinda strange to charge so much I guess.. Won't people just buy the original instead and then the expansion when they want, if they want..

By the way I have always loved the AOE games also AOM..!

It is very late, the last expansion came out at the end of 2007.

Microsoft even have the nerve to charge $50 for it...

I've checked Walmart, EB Games, The Source, etc and they are still selling the Age of Empires III Gold collection (which includes III and War Chiefs) for $40 so $50 isn't that bad.

I was hoping for a new game. :(
