Empire: Total War

It’s an exciting time for PC gamers. PC strategy gamers that is. IGN reports on Creative Assembly’s latest – Empire: Total War. I’ve been a fan of this series from the beginning – Shogun: Total War moving on to Medieval: Total War, Rome: Total War and then finally Medieval 2: Total War. This game looks to be shaping up as the next evolution in not only this franchise but also the rival Civilisation series.

How I’ve spent many hours in Civilisation 4 playing as the English colonising the world… now I can do it in the Total War way – with real-time battle control! Awesome!

It looks as if my PS3 will have to take a back seat when this comes out.
