Games TM makes a good point regarding this increased longevity %uFFFD it%uFFFDs not entirely accessible to new players. The general feeling seems to be that Civ IV offers a lot more single player replayability: %uFFFD There%uFFFDs a nearly endless variety in the single player game.%uFFFD The main reason for this appears to be the longevity of the games. IGN handed AoE III a slightly lower score (88/100) than Civilization IV (94/100). Their quote %uFFFDNo fan of strategy games should leave this on store shelves%uFFFD at the end of their Civ IV review could easily be applied to AoE III as well. It seems that the reviewers enjoyed both titles so much that they%uFFFDd recommend strategy fans pick up both titles. Gamespy gave Civilization IV and Age of Empires III (100/100) each. Take the jump to find out what reviewers thought of these two strategy game behemoths. So we thought it'd be very appropriate to write up a versus metareview of the two games - in the style of our previous F.E.A.R. The two games took the 1st and 2nd place on the PC games sales chart for the week ending November 13th.
Rather than trying to represent one age as best as it can, it tries to cover the whole of civilization from cavemen to spacecraft.
Civilization IV, on the other hand, is turn based and features a lot of micromanagement. AoE is real time and has a permanent "down with the troops" view and feel. Whilst Age of Empires III and Civilization IV are classed in the same genre as strategy games, they have very different styles.
