I'll probably do some sort of review of it, though it may take some time. After a day of solid play, I don't think I'm even scratching the surface. In other words, in a day, I've managed to play one year of the hundred-year campaign. A campaign that can be played as any nation on the map, with radically different objectives for each.
In short, though: so far, it's shaping up to be Game of the Bloody Ages for me.
Remember that most of us are console gamers. If a PC publisher isn't breaking down our doors with press releases and such--something that some of them certainly do--we're probably not adding it unless someone asks us to. Sometime I hope to catch up on the PC game listings, but it probably won't be anytime soon.
Rome: Total War is one of my favorite games of all time so if this is anything close (which I hear it is) I'm super stoked. I haven't been excited about a singleplayer game since Episode Two. Too bad I'm still playing lots of Dawn of War II and Unreal 3 because I want to start this ASAP.

I suppose I'll add it in shortly.
