AoE was a Friday night staple with the family as the kids were growing up. Being a family of Geeks we did LAN parties with the kids. AoE was always the end game to go to where the kids and wife would turn on me mid battle (and of course I had to teach them all a lesson when they did).
My kids did numerous essays and did a ton of historical readings due to all the civilizations in the game (And Sid Meier’s Civilization). Lots of fond memories about the game and family.
@Bart_Elia let’s do a game one of these nights. @jgiese.wci, @hkeric.wci and @EarlGrei and a few others all got the new one. Also today the AoE 2 HD is on Sale on Steam for 3 bucks!
Me and a roomie would play AoE back in the day. I’ll have to check out the Definitive Edition. Been having fun in AC:O lately as I got selected as a Google Stream tester.
@josecgomez Lol, I was big into Counter-Strike CS:GO and everytime you won the round, your avatar popped out well @Chris_Conn accepted my friend request.
