    Total War Countdown/ UPDATE: Shogun 2 confirmed!

    Shogun 2, really? I'm surprised... I don't get how this will work well. Some things sound good but there are some others that sound terrible. Especially after reading this IGN Preview (http://pc.ign.com/articles/109/1093664p1.html) my excitement is kinda killed but I'll get it anyway because...

    Total War Countdown/ UPDATE: Shogun 2 confirmed!

    Just an observation: If you open the Flash object alone in a browser it counts down to "0" like the OP said (because there are no parameters input from the html) but I noticed that years with less than 4 digits are off-center. (Enter http://www.totalwar.com/_landing_page/twTimerLarge.swf into...

    Total War Countdown/ UPDATE: Shogun 2 confirmed!

    I've never played multiplayer Total War but maybe I should try it. My opinions are about singleplayer modes. In singleplayer ETW cannons are useless in a field battle but I've heard quite a few other people also say that cannons are overpowered on multiplayer. I wanted to test cannons so I...

    Total War Countdown/ UPDATE: Shogun 2 confirmed!

    This is a brilliant interpretation actually. I just hope you're not right lol because the land battles at that time would only be a slightly more interesting version of M2TW where cavalry dominated the field. I didn't love ETW but one of the things I liked about it was that cavalry was...

    Total War Countdown/ UPDATE: Shogun 2 confirmed!

    lol people if the sand ever changes it won't change until the last day where it will simply all be shown at the bottom along with the final year. The hourglass is just a picture to represent the passing time of the countdown. Game devs are very tight-lipped; they would never give an actual way...

    Total War Countdown/ UPDATE: Shogun 2 confirmed!

    This is no super-scientific estimate but you'll get the point: The countdown is dropping about 30 years per day so unless it starts going down more rapidly then it will drop about another 450 years by E3. And 450 years before 1682 (the current countdown as I'm writing this) is right in the...

    Total War Countdown/ UPDATE: Shogun 2 confirmed!

    I think the dates are random. The point of these teasers is just that - to be teasers, not to actually give us a way of figuring out anything exact. The only thing we "know" is that it will end on one particular year. So what we should do is think of a particular event of special importance to...
