My favourite Age of Empires, aside from the classic Age of Empires 1 of course haha. They added so many civs in this version, hopefully GOG includes the "extra" civs as part of the full bundle.

One of my childchood's games. I've spent sooooooooo much time in it. Both in campaign modes and skirmish vs ai. Had no internet in home so had to stick to single player. I'm glad that it received a remaster. But it would also be very cool if it was also available on GOG, not just steam.
Those games also need your vote!
