Misleading title and not so great prices for very old games. AOE4 is $18 alone and is not either $11 for all games or even $11 each!

With AoE2, it's the Definitive Edition, which still gets developed and for which they also release new DLCs regularly. But, yeah, the prices aren't that great.

These are the remasters and aren't that old.

I still play AOE 2 de, it has creature comforts the org AOE2 didn't. As for 3 I didn't care for it, as for 4 I am waiting for the 3 month low price of 11.59 (per isthereanydeal.com) I have to buy multiple copies. I think i paid 5 bucks for aoe2 de a while ago, not sure why this is on the front page.

Great 1 and 2 are great games for under 5 bucks. 2 is goat.

1 is imhop at a buy price, but maybe just wait and buy 2 when it hits sub $5. I only play lan so i don't need 1.

I would play the "lite" version on the MSN website. I had dial-up and when the game started and then buffered, the other 3 would say "OK, WHO HAS DIAL-UP? And I'm like "YEAH, WTF is making us all lag!"

These were fantastic games … 20+ years ago. I can't understand why ANY price on a game that should already be FREE could be a "hot" deal.

They updated it. The 20 year old game is harder to multi player on. There are graphic updates and game play updates. NGL I would like to know if they balanced farmers and horse archers not to mention where the farms couldn't be walked across (like the field was a building) (I can't stop playing 2 to find out)

With all due respect, I've been price watching these for a while and they do go on sale, but its not the normal price, I've personally been waiting for a sale like this, so i bought all of them. Just trying to share discount since it helped me and I put my own money up when this sale came out. And while some of the games are old (IMO aoe 4 is pretty new), the remastered ones look amazing and they fix the lag and quality of life problems the original game had.

Spent so many hours on this. That Carthage campaign was so tough. Loved bum rushing someone's town in a death match with my elephants. Protect your boar at all cost.

Is the "Retold" edition adding new content, or is just a remaster from the original game?

AoE4 has been on deeper sale on Fanatical previously ($11.59 last year).
