Rating:  - AOE 3 is not like the last 2.
I have the first 2 in the AOE series. This one is not as historic, as far as I can tell. The stories aren't the same and it seems more like WarCraft than the last 2 games. Still, some of the graphics are great and the game itself is simple enough for younger audiences, despite the "T" rating. My wife also likes the background music.
This addition was nice because it had more in it than the War Chiefs, 3 story lines, as opposed to only 2. That ups the value in my book.

Rating: - Great Game to Waste Many Hours At!
I am an original Age of Empires user - back when they came out with the very first one, I had it so this review might be a little biased. I love Age of Empires and play it with friends every now and then.
This game is fairly complicated but my 11 year old brother gets it pretty well. Basically you start off with villagers and a town center. The whole goal of the game is to gather resources to build up an empire. The more wood, gold, and food you get the more people, buildings, soldiers ... Read More
Rating: - More of the Same
The Asian Dynasties is another add-on for Age of Empires (III). It turns out to be more of the same with different looking characters. Gather wood, gather food, gather coin to build up your empire so you can fight other empires for world dominance. I bought this for my 12-yr old son who got quickly bored with the game once he played it for a short time. I enjoyed it somewhat because the characters tend to speak something that sounds like the Chinese language.
Rating:  - No European Addtitions
Although fun, this expansion pack added only maps and civilizations, unlike the previous expansion pack "The Warchiefs". Absolutely no enhancements were made to the previous civilizations.
Rating: - Awesome Expansion...
Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties Expansion Pack
I thoroughly enjoyed the new civilizations and their corresponding technologies. I've played all the new single player scenarios.
I only wished the designers would have incorporated more civ-specific music.
