Skinz, what's Kessen? Is that like Nobunaga's Ambition? {See, I played games as a kid, too. My favorites are Final Fight in the arcade, Nobunaga's Ambition for the Nintendo, and that game were you shoot people in a restuarant. I think it was on the Super Nintendo, and I used to think it was SO cool.} This is Kessen. Its a strategy game for Playstation 2 and is based on the battle at Sekigahara. I only play little video games. But when I do play, its mostly games with some link to history. This is Tokugawa. Not fat like some of his portraits. There's also Kessen 2 which deals with characters from ROTK. And in a month or so, Kessen 3 will come out which deal with the rise of nobunaga lol lol lol lol You chicagins are way off. So stupid. Its not a new game. It is a game called warcraft 3. It is about humans,Ogores and the dead fighting each other for domination of land. ;D I refuse to argue about a video game so say what you will.

Dynasty Tactics 2 is the only video game I play. I probably spend 2 hours a week or so on it. It's fun, and like you said skinz, it's got a link to history.

Ahh, RTK makes it into the discussion. hehe
Kessen / Tactics aren't actually my style of wargaming (well Kessen a little bit). The "hack and slash" type I like is the Total War series style (lookup the Rome version if you're interested, it's way better than the others). I just wish they'd remake the ORIGINAL Shogun Total War theme/setting and update it to use the technology and design that Rome Total War uses. The original (Shogun) really sucks in perspective.
Anyway... ugh a "Warcraft III mod" will inspire no interest to any fans of EWG or AOW--none at all. Don't bother looking for it. (Unless you're already a WCIII player of course.)
Designing a AOW-era game is quite a challenge really. There isn't many games out there that combine war and politics to the level that a game that tries to stay true to the show would. That's why it'd be pretty cool, no?
(Heh maybe I might as well register at this forum...and stick to this spoiler-safe thread exclusively lol!)

Nope, totally different: www.totalwar.com/community/rome.htmScreenshots are down a little... since the series was originally based in Japan, it's probably just a matter of time before they move back to Asia, hopefully. But that game (Rome) is pretty amazing. I call it "action-strategy", since there's strategy but it IS real time so it's not too much a thinking game. (Except campaign mode of course.) But that's not what I'm designing here... Something 3-D and of that level of detail could never be made by a hobbiest. I think a more "pure" strategy game would better suit AOW/EWG anyway, like the Three Kingdoms series from Koei. (Nobunaga's Ambition company. The TK series is way better though.) I think they're up to like "Romance of the Three Kingdoms 9" or something, hehe. 3kingdoms.net/

That was okay, but they steadily improved the series. Up until this last release certain aspects always seemed a little...less than professional in quality. I hate the way the units move in Shogun; it's MUCH more realistic now (of course they're using totally different methods of rendering now: full 3d).

Well, I don't see how it can be "Professional" or not. It's just a game. And I thought it was interesting, just no time for it. There are probably people who spend several hours a week on these stuff, but for me, it doesn't really matter.

The Total War series looks like a good set of games. You're right, it's probably one of the best approaches for a game version of either series.
I would prefer something that incorporates all or most of the best aspects of the games that people have mentioned on this thread.

Hey DelDuke, I would trade some videos of The Immortal Yi Soon Shin (The newest Historical drama) for some EWG tapes. I never saw EWG and am very interesting.

I wouldn't ship vhs tapes as it would be too expensive. That is why I converted all my tapes to DVD. I believe our next series to air here in Philly may be Admiral Yi or Emperor of the Sea. What I am looking for is the few episodes that I'm missing from my collection of EWG and AOW.

DelDuke,
Since you have some AOW on DVD, is there anyway you could upload the theme music in real audio, mpeg, or some other format for us?

[Whats up man. We need to talk. You might the only person on the planet then can help me get this show on dvd, video tape, or some sort of film. I called WYBE. They said KBS wouldn't let them release it. I couldn't get KBS' number. She did transfer me to the people that talk with kbs at the station( I guess you can call them the middle man). I didnt get a response. If I did I dont know how far I would have got. I tried the website YESASIA, but there is anything there. I searched under "Age of Warriors" and "Mooinshidae"(the korean name for the show). Nothing. By the way I missed the whole damn series. I stated when Archfiend middle son went on that mission to find the Kim Sami and the Shilla army. I not obessed I just wanna see the show.
