I spent so much time when back from school on this game, it's really one of the best strategy game from that period. A real balance between the turn based management and real time battles, with each factions having a visual identity and historically accurate soldiers. I remember being very bad at it and would use the money code all the time, and still, i was terrible at fights even against average AI. But i'd be so glad if GoG could bring those eldest Total War games, with a patch for widescreen it would be perfect.

I spend countless hours in Medieval 2. Either alone or together with my brother playing singleplayer and feeling like two great tacticans. We never played multiplayer, but always singleplayer, as the most fun part of the game was to argue about how we should use each turn, what longterm strategies we could apply or to just view one of those epic movie-like siege battles Medieval 2 ist famous for. When we played together, we always felt about the game, like it was a good movie. Having extensive mods which add dozens of historical subfactions , Medieval 2 steel also told me more about heraldy of the European middle ages than I would imagined. To this day I cannot go into a castle in Germany, France or Italy, without noticing at least one or two coat of arms of a local nobility. Even when newer, more extensive entries in the Total War series released, none got me hooked like Medieval 2.

The best total war game ever made. Don't argue. What's not to love? The graphics the music the humor the strategy the mods. The only thing that annoys me is agent spam. But still a classic.
