I wrote about Age of Empires: Definitive Edition and Parallels Desktop in an earlier blog post, and in this post I will discuss Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition. These updates improved the graphics quality and also moved to DirectX 11 as the graphics library upon which the games are based. It would appear that Microsoft has reconsidered the decision to end the Age of Empires line, as they’ve recently released two significant updates-Age of Empires: Definitive Edition and Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition. So, you can imagine my dismay when Microsoft announced in 2008 that they were shutting down Ensemble Studios, the development studio for all the Age of Empires titles. Experience the adventure of the Spanish Conquistadors as they enter the exotic lands of the Aztecs, or relive the destructive force of Attila's pillaging Huns.As I‘ve written in earlier blog posts, Age of Empires is my most favorite game of all time.
