This looks rad, wonder how it will integrate with the voobly community and pro scene

Very much keen, As above interested to see how it goes with voobly and pro scene, but we have that issue with defiant edition of AOE1 too..

Ohhh I'm keen. Loved the campaigns so to have a new one added is cool. Was never good at multiplayer but did enjoy watching back in the days. Will be keeping an eye on this.

Remastered audio...... Will there still be the terrible Scottish accent...??

Even Mel Gibson did a better job.... :-p

I hope so. I actually want the taunts - "All Hail King of Losers" and "Start the game already!"

anyone else been able to find if its coming to pc or is it xbox only? I dont have an xbox.. but used to like the game in my teen years

It must be coming to PC as well. I enrolled and linked my Steam account to the beta.

They try to keep a lot of MS games cross platform now with their Play Anywhere scheme. Buy on one platform, play on either.

For some reason, my kids liked 30.

Taunts

Went to the E3 screening in Auckland today with Microsoft, that was cool. They made the announcement and the crowd was reasonably hyped for it. 

Missed the start of the event due to traffic, wasn't happy. 

Borderlands 3 was what I wanted to see.

Who's the best geekzone AOE II player?

I played the original a lot back in 2000, but now usually only 3-4 games per year when friends are back over Christmas.
