Does anybody still play that online? Hey whats the best one?
I think its Rome! but not the expansions!
You forgot napoleon.
Sick game
Rome was the shit. First of all, it has Romans. That is awesome.
Second of all, it had more cities in Italy and Greece than medieval 2 had, and having Corinth as the only city in the Peloponnesus was retarded.
Third of all, the different factions felt different. In medieval 2, it feels as if each faction is just a reskin from another one with a few different units thrown in. In Rome, you have the slow but powerful phalanxes, the quick chariots, the barbarian hordes, the strong Roman infantry... it was a lot more versatile.
Haven't really played empire or shogun, so can't really evaluate those.
Rome is awesome!
I wish Empire didn't have such shitty AI, that would make it a lot better.
Rome is the best, then Shogun, then Medieval 1, then the rest.
Rome Total War is still fucking awesome. It got my vote :buddy:
Rome is indeed the best.
I have the CD somewhere, the guy I brought my old PC from gave it to me, along with Doom 3.
Capital Letters. They are essential for proper nouns. You should start using them OP.
I suspect Shogun 2 will be fucking epic.
Empire was a huge disappointment that the devs have pretty much forgotten about entirely. No editors were released for it as they promised; the only things we ever got were those bullshit $10 DLC units and a couple of campaigns. Napoleon will doubtfully suffer the same fate. And Shogun II? Running off the exact same engine as Empire and Napoleon. It's a shitty rehash that will end the same.
I miss the old days when they actually cared about their customers. So much awesomeness there was for Rome and Medieval II.
The only Total War game I played was Napoleon and it was a okay game but gameplay started to get stale after a while, and little to no strategy were involved. Hopefully CA won't let the community down again when Shogun II comes out.
where's Napoleon? that and Rome take the cake. followed by Empire and i have a certain enthusiasm for Shogun 2 with bigger battles.

empire had Large-as-hell scale strategy with the most depth of the series to date. take a look at that one.

thanks for the hard on with that pic ;-)
Rome Total War as well.
This is my list:
1. Rome Total war. It was my first total war game and i don't know how many hours I've spent on it but many. It had a very huge variety.
2. Napoleon Total war. First total war game i pre ordered, and it was totaly worth it. I got empire for christams and was allready bored of it before NTW was released in fabruary, but NTW i still play. It's must be the most epic game in the total war series so far, and it was such a huge improvement of empire, with better ai, real line battles and all. Also i love this period the most.
3/4. M2TW/ETW, can't decide really. I didn't play them as much as the two games above. Medieval 2 had such a graphic improvement and it had really nice mods, while Empire had so much new in it, world map(almost) and town etc.
It may sound as Napoleon should have been in the first spot but since Rome was my first total war game and i've spent most hours on it plus i get so nostalgic every time i play it it deservers the first spot.
Medieval II with the Stainless Steel mod is just fantastic. I couldn't get into Rome though, maybe it was because ancient warfare in Europe just felt too "different".
Rome and Medieval 2 are easily the best ones.
Medieval 2 with the Kingdoms expansion even more so.
Teutonic Knights > *
I've only played Rome, so I voted that.
