He said, that Rome 2 won't capture the true Rome 1 experience, which is, somehow, understandable, since Rome 1 was even more revolutionary than Rome 2 (first game with true 3D-gfx, massive battles bigger than before,...) while Rome 2 features smaller (but also awesome) steps between Shogun 2 and itself.

The best total war would be if they made medieval II again but with the graphics of Rome II and expanded the map into Asia so that you could start as let's say Venice, conquer Europe, North Africa (as before), and then march your way towards China, conquering all that stands before you. I swear you could easily get a 150 hour playthrough doing that.

Because I recently heard that most of us Americas think Europe is (snicker) in South America.
