These are brought together for the first time ever in Rise of Nations. You'll create new cities, improve city infrastructures and expand national borders. Conquer foes through military might using everything from sling-shots to cannons, stealth bombers to nuclear weapons. Corner the market on key commodities and consolidate power under your rule. Wheel and deal across time with history's eminent cultures. Review PC gamers, as a breed, aren't short of strategy games to play. But the canny mix of real time and turn-based gameplay that underpins Rise of Nations proves to be initially intriguing and deceptively addictive. The game's focus is spread over some 6,000 years, with numerous scenarios pitching you initially into the midst of ancient history and ultimately bringing events right up to date. In each scenario, several skills are at times aggressively tested; there's the need for diplomacy, the odd bit of combat, resource management and trading. In short, pretty much the staple diet of most strategy games. Where Rise of Nations takes a different path though is in its approach. The single player mode brings into play a strategic map--think of the board game Risk and you're about there--and charges you with the task of capturing fresh territories whilst successfully defending your own. It's a weighty addition to an already long-lasting game, and marries up nicely to the real time strategy element that subsequently kicks in. Furthermore, the game's surprisingly easy to get into, and as you progress your people from a basic beginning through to a more advanced society, it's hard not to get immersed in it all. While ironing out the need for petty decision making that's brought several other titles in the genre to their knees, Rise of Nations still demands much taxing of the grey matter, and to its credit, there's rarely just one way to approach a problem. And that's before the highly entertaining battles kick in. From time to time, you could argue that the gameplay gets slightly repetitive and the mixing in of two different styles of strategy style isn't going to appeal to all. -- Simon Brew

International Cricket Captain : Ashes Edition (PC CD) Brand New In Box (Sealed but sometimes supplied without film wrapping) THIS PRODUCT IS IMPORTED ON ORDER - PLEASE SEE "SHIPPING & PAYMENT" FOR DELIVERY TIMES Game Information Platform:   Windows ELSPA Minimum Age: 3 Media: Video Game  See more system requirements Product details Release Date: 29 Jun Features: Captain England or any country from thr test playing nations Historical scenarios featuring great players from the past Replay the '99 world cup Pick your team, choose your bowlers and make declarations Sign new playes and decide match tactics Bowl around or over the wicket Product Description ReviewThe annual update of Empire Interactive's impressive PC cricket management simulation, International Cricket Captain once again puts the player in charge of either a county or the national team, and charges them with the task of bringing success. This year's update is, unsurprisingly, more a polish than a thorough reworking of the formula (hence the low retail price), featuring the same intuitive interface and general all round ease of use. It also offers the same ferocious challenge as its predecessors too, with even the Easy mode sure to provide a sturdy test. The edition features updated statistics, a groundsman option (to help prepare a pitch that suits your team's style of play), the chance to play classic tests from the past or the World Cup, and a two-player mode too. These are more subtle changes than great advances, but they do enhance the game slightly. Despite its initially specialist appearance, International Cricket Captain is an engrossing and accessible game that can be easily customised for different levels of expertise and patience. It doesn't cover cricket quite as well as Championship Manager caters to football fans, but that's mainly down to the differing subject matter. Yet sports-strategy-game fans should see this for what it is--a quality, addictive and bargain-priced sports game that'll easily whittle away a few weekends. --Simon Brew Manufacturer's DescriptionInternational Cricket Captain : Ashes Edition Captain England or any country from the Test playing nations.
