well i think i met everything but the graphics card

i think the game plays really well if you got a good graphics card
if you have a powerful comp i think that it plays pretty well

really pathetic graphics card 256 mb of ram 2ghz processor sound card i think its inbuilt would it work or is there some way i could use a virtual graphics card if there is somethin like that

aoe is nice but as with all other games, new versions are spoon. like with the sims 2 of simcity 4, i can't play that. i played aoe3. but not alot cause its not really my favorite style of rts, but when I played it im usually addicted to it for a few weeks. and when im addicted to a game, every thing else is unimportant. which got me in some trouble in the past :P

lol
i know what you mean
i have been addicted to things

ive been addicted to Total Annihilation, i think 10 times a period of a few weeks, then I was addicted to my computers TV-Out once, i lay in bed all day watching downloaded movies :P Then ive been addicted to Counter Strike and CS Source for a long time, a few times, in total i think about a year long. Then theres other random addictions like AoE and Cossacks, but they werent so severe. ive nvere been really physically addicted to anthing, except maybe caffeine. lol ive even been addicted to downloading, i was so bored all i did was watch my downloads' stats and manage free space on my harddrive. total waste of time.

i have been addicted to downloading
i needed something to check up on

I've been addcited to age of empires
it's a good game especially if you know the concept behind it and all that

hey no one answered my question

i can't
i don't know nothing bout graphics cards/ or video cards
I'm okay with processor and hard drive

fortunately I'm not addicted to aoe3
i still play though

one of the few games that im' not addicted to, but still play
