Yeah that could be a problem, I don't know how much Napoleon improved over Empire in terms of mechanics but it shouldn't be TOO big of a jump.
See the thing about wanting that pillaging and raiding thing is that it hasn't really been in the series recently. In Rome Total War: Barbarian Invasion you could play as the Huns, Goths, Alans, etc. and in Medieval II you can do all sorts of horrific shit with the Crusades and the discovery of the Aztecs and Mayans, but after that history got a bit too civillised lol. Rome II should hopefully bring that back since you can play as British, Gaulic or Germanic tribes
And yeah, the naval warfare isn't particularly important in Shogun 2 but I don't mind, I prefer land battles any day

Yea some people don't seem to understand the point of RPGs which is why we end up with so many shallow ones now with people skipping any writing or dialogue to get to more action.
Mass Effect man, that series had so much potential. 1 is glorious and you can see all the potential it has, 2 changes up the mechanics a bit more and makes it more shooter oriented, 3 is just meh...

So I have a few Arma 3 alpha lite keys (doesn't let you play multiplayer) if anyone wants to test it out or see how it runs on their rig.

au revoir for now my fellow ninjas
I don't even know what game you're talking about, but I really enjoyed reading your views on it. You should send a CV in to IGN or something.

So I updated my collection a bit more mainly with indies that were on sale
And I still paid less than your average AAA title
Also does anyone know how Ridge Racer Unbounded is? It's been awhile since I played a good non-kart racer that wasn't Wipeout and it's on sale on Amazon.

Ok I'm totally hooked to Super House of Dead Ninjas. This is my new Binding of Isaac, tons of replay value as well.
