Empire Earth 2 vs Total War: Shogun 2
Empire Earth 2
Empire Earth 2 lets you dive back again into the embrace of a timeless real-time strategy gameplay where this time around, you get to lead great nations and take part in the greatest historical battles known to mankind. Like the previous game though, you'll get to advanced through the ages, allowing you to experience both ancient warfare right up to a futuristic version. You can also decide to dominate others with your military might or via diplomatic techniques. This game even includes its expansion, Empire Earth II: The Art of Supremacy.Empire Earth 2 may not be as perfect an RTS as its original, but many would say that it's still a much decent game than Empire Earth 3, which is exactly when the franchise was shuttered for good. If you love Empire Earth, this is a pretty decent game to buy.
Total War: Shogun 2
Total War: Shogun 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the groundbreaking original game, Shogun: Total War. Set in the darkest age of Feudal Japan right after the collapse of a unified government (in 16th century to be exact), many warring clans have risen through the chaos and out of them, 10 legendary warlords, or Daimyos, have their eyes set on the coveted position of shogun, but only one of them will be able to reunite a warring island.The gameplay is pretty similar to the original game. The campaign map features a turn-based, Risk-style gameplay while the actual battles themselves (rendered in glorious 3D) are played out in real-time. However, this time around, the game is filled with a ton of new units, including massive warships, as well as a more in-depth strategic gameplay based on the ancient texts in Sun Tzu's Art of War. There are multi-stage sieges, unique hero units who can be improved through standard RPG methods, and that the campaign map is now in 3D as well and can be rotated whichever way you like.
The campaign in Total War: Shogun 2 can also be played cooperatively (2 players), but if you truly want to test your skills, you can engage in epic online battles with up to 8 other players.
This game does the very first Total War game justice and is the sort of game that fans of the series would greatly enjoy. Also, considering that the game came out more than 5 years ago, the graphics in the game is still pretty relevant today... so I guess, that's another bonus.
