    Age of Mythology is a great RTS that I recently got my hands on but considering I'm on a W7 system, the Microsoft site tells me its incompatible. Does anyone else have any experience playing this game on a newer system?

    I don't have it, but I'd say it would work fine. If it doesn't install normally then just run it in compatibility mode.

    Age of Mythology works on my W7 x64 install.
    Just remember to patch it up to latest version manually.

    Thanks! ~

    Managed to get it working. I gotta say, Microsoft can make some killer RTS titles.
