They should re-do AoE2.
With super pretty graphics. Keep the same units/sounds/missions/whatever.
Why does every free version of a game turn into a cartoon?

So it appeals to wider audience? Who knows.

Probably because they can pass off lower poly models easier that way, ensuring more people can play their game.
Requires the GFWL client, pass.
I just tried to sign up for xbox live so I can try it out - my full name is taken. I can't find anyone else on facebook or pipl with my name, what is this nonsense?
Also, the download doesn't seem to be very large (after having run the game from GFWL, yes I know that the first download is just another installer)
I've been in this beta since the 1st release It was called "Project Spatan", I played for half an hour before realising that it worked like any other mmo, just in rts form, e.g. collect so many resources to complete the mission.

ROFL.
In other news, I signed up and am playing the game. It took 3minutes.

I always put my birth year as 1985, even if I don't know there's an age limit, it avoids shit like this

I can drive and have sex, but I can't sign up for xbox live.
Now where is the product key that I'm supposed to enter?

How am I supposed to play it when it asks for a product key and no keys have been assigned to my account...
Same here - I opened the marketplace program, went to downloads - "No Key Assigned"
At CES 2011, this was one of their flagship titles they were showing off on PCs, this and Fable 3. I spoke to the developers of the game and although they do have good intentions with this, they should go back and either do AoE4 or a remake of AoE2. I didn't like the "kid-friendly" art style of this one but it was pretty fun to play. It managed to make me stop in the demo-booth and play it for twenty minutes.
Apparently they're looking in to it: [url]http://forums.ageofempiresonline.com/forums/thread/50671.aspx[/url]
