About
With dozens of hours of gameplay set across a rich tapestry of time, Empire Earth: Gold Edition offers real-time strategy for the ages. Choose any point in time - from the discovery of fire to the laser battles of the far-flung future - and command your civilization with one goal: make Earth your Empire.
Advance a fledgling civilization through the course of history, as you build an empire capable of dominating the Earth. From humble beginnings you must carefully use natural resources if you want to prosper. As you progress through time you’ll uncover new technologies, buildings and weapons - but be warned, advancement doesn’t necessarily mean success! Your civilization might flourish in one epoch only to become history in the next.

[h1][b] An award-winning British independent studio? Puh-lease! Shame on you! You couldn’t add a couple of resolution options? Bezos is sending Oprah’s husband to Mars again next week! What’s your excuse? Early access to the kirking Hantavirus? Bloody Ebola? Empire Earth: 94 FPS cap?! Unlimited FPS in the menu screen. Vsync is available. Empire Earth II: Vsync option is gone. And no resolution beyond 1920 x 1200 is available. Empire Earth III: Vsync is back. But again unlike Empire Earth 1, resolution again only goes up to 1920 x 1200. [/b][/h1]
Favorite RTS from childhood.
Quando l'ho visto qua su Steam, nell'Anno Domini 2026, mi è preso un colpo. Era il 2003, mio padre comprava il primo PC fisso di casa, dentro c'era di tutto e di più. E pensò, quindi, fosse una buona idea insegnarmi a leggere e giocare grazie ad Empire Earth e Serious Sam. Io non andavo nemmeno alle elementari, passavo giornate intere a costruire accampamenti e far evolvere civiltà. (E ad ammazzare mostri, ma non è questo il gioco. Almeno non del tutto). Adesso che sono una donna, mi duole ammettere adulta, con un PC che sembra un'astronave rispetto a quel primo aggeggio, torno in mezzo a questi pixel e questi barbari con la clava, a buttare giù torri di difesa e costruire meraviglie. Perché è vero, Expedition 33 e Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 sono giochi meravigliosi, ma Empire Earth è stato il mio primo vero motivo di gioia videoludica, la ragione per cui non volevo praticamente uscire mai di casa. Ero così piccola che nemmeno arrivavo alla tastiera, quasi. E che momento allucinante fu lo scoprire di poter impostare la lingua in italiano facendo zapping molto casualmente fra i settings. Cosa che ad oggi, nella versione presente, ancora non si può fare. (SIAMO SOTTO ATTACCO!!!! Dalle casse del computer a tutta la casa, facendo venire infarti ai miei parenti...) Non sono lucida mentre scrivo questa recensione, l'emozione di aver ripescato per caso un pezzo così bello della mia infanzia mi fa un po' discorrere in piena confusione. Per chi, come me, è già stato/a qui: rigiocate Empire Earth pure in una 5080, ne vale la pena. Per chi non lo conosce: dategli lo stesso una possibilità, penso ne valga ugualmente la pena. Io e mio padre siamo tornati bambini. Con un dubbio gusto per il massacrare guerrieri in pixel, ma sì, forse è giusto così. Forse, ma forse, ma sì.
better than age of empires
What can I say - take a trip down memory lane with this absolute masterpiece. Despite 23 years having passed, almost a quarter of a century, I still find it thoroughly enjoyable - and not just for nostalgic feelings. However they will not do the basic task of adding steam server support like Star Wars Empire at War did. Its a shame too having a functional multiplayer browser for this game would really lead to a resurgence in popularity. With that being said I can not recommend this game as playing with friends will require Hamachi or game ranger.
My childhood finally on Steam Stonma Geniha Dauuda
