    do you guys still play AoE2? If you do, then hit me up! Although, i haven't tried AoE2 on my windows 7 yet, but I hope it works.

    Hamachi or gameranger both work. gameranger is IMO more efficient.

    I never played the first 2, AoE III had me fixated for months, and the Asian Dynasties, completely gone off it now though.

    I have never played the game. My friend says it rocks and he wants me to start playing with him but I never get the chance to do so. It's a rather popular game as well.

    I play AoE 3. Awesome game. I got it for my last laptop thinking it would play, but when water battles or big battles happened, the integrated graphics would lag horribly. Now, that i got a dv7t with an ATI radeon 4650, it plays excellent, and WOW, I was missing out.

    AoE2 is the best of all the AoE games. Period.
    I played from the first one through the last. Best is the 2nd, then the 1st one.
