Age of Empires II: Age of Kings

Everybody always says that the old games are the best, well in this case, 'everybody' could not be more correct. This is the perfect game if you are looking for an addictive, adventurous game in which your creativity knows no bounds. The game boasts a 'create scenario' tool in which you can recreate major events and battles, or even anything that takes your fancy. There are hours of entertainment within this game with an exciting campaign mode and a choice of 'random map,' 'regicide' or 'death match,' three different game modes that offer different tactics and strategies of battle. Although available for best results on PC, also can be found on other consoles such as DS or playstation 2 for retro gaming. In my opinion, this game is the 'King' of the whole age of empires series. It is also cheap to purchase nowadays so it is a recommendatory purchase.  What is your opinion of Age of Empires II: Age of Kings?
