Empire Total War

One of the games I am looking forward to most of all has to be Empire: Total war. For those of you who may not be familiar with it, Creative Assembly years ago made the groundbreaking game Shogun:Total War. Featuring A.I. that was designed directly from The Art of War by Sun Tzu, this game featured a combination of turn based and real time strategy that played out on an epic scale. I never played Medieval: Total War, but Rome TW was easily one of if not the greatest strategy game ever made. The graphics and AI were so realistic the history channel actually used the game to demonstrate how real historic battles played out.

Anyway Empire: Total War looks like another leap forward in this series. Dated around what looks like the Age of Sail and moving into the American revolutionary war, this new game will also feature Naval Combat in addition to visually amazing land battles. Check these out:
