CroSpartacus 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2006 I remember hearing once that the PC game Age Of Empires would be on PlayStation II. Is this true? Did it come out on the PS2 yet or is it going to come out?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cool_Freaker 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2006 Yes, Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings was released a while ago on PS2 (2001 or 2002 I believe). It didn't receive the best ratings, nor were many copies made. Nonetheless, you may be able to find it second hand in some places, or new in EB or something.I'd still recommend the PC version though, considering it's cheaper, and just about all computers these days can play it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CroSpartacus 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2006 I have the PC version. I would like to try it out on the PS2 though, I was curious on how they managed to make it on a ps2 because how can they select villagers and make orders without a mouse?Do you know the average price of the game on the ps2? I know PC version is really cheap now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ComeToLife 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2006 First off, console will never have the capabilities of a computer, the fact why that is, is because you create a console with a computer, so therefore it is limited to what a computer can do. And AOE on PS2 is just plain stupid. Whoever thought RTS games would work on a console was seriously stupid. An RTS requires the WHOLE keyboard, which is ussually 104 keys I believe, along with a mouse and two more main button. How many do consoles have? not that many i tell you, in fact, 4 controllers plugged in won't have that many. So would I approve AOE on PS2? No. Just look at StarCraft, one of the best time selling pc games of all time, and look at the console version... crap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lairz 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2006 Man.. I just can't imagine playing a strategy game on any type of console without a mouse lol. I so got used to playing my strategies with a mouse that switching to an analog or a ps2 controller would be imossible for me. Plus there is an issue of PS2 graphics and the TV screen. You'd have to sit really close to your TV to see all the "people" on the screen and this isnt very good for the eyes. So if you think of buying Age of Empires for your PS2, go find a PC version and ull be much happier with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
