The Pros
Praetorians it's a nice game with lots of graphics great music some new kind of fighting styles and lots of fighting. Here you don't collect resources like in Age Of Empires series the only resource here are the civilians the backbone of the Roman Empire. You use civilians to make your armies to fight out barbarians from the north, the Egyptians South East and your own comrades Pompeii's roman armies. Here you fight as one of Caesar's generals in his quest for power. You fight in the north, in Italian soil and Egypt. The fight is great AI is great and smart but sometimes it's either too smart or to stupid...
The Cons
Well like always the bad thing is next although I don't think it's that bad :) I love the game. The game does not have enough maps or a map editor like the Warcraft or Age Of Empires series. You can't make your own scenarios or multiplayer maps I belief that they should have had added such a thing or at least some other civilization like the Britons that Caesar fought in his invasion of Britannia. Also the game needs a resolution of 1024 x 768 if your monitor or video card don't handle that you will not be able to play which is not cool for some one that doesn't have such monitors like my nephews :(. Well I think that's all the bad things for these game since for me it has not slow down or anything like that, even in 56k Internet connections works fine, not like quake 3 arena or other games same gender…
