I've been playing since the original Shogun.
Shogun 2 is a beautiful, beautiful game, and Rome is the game that really brought the series into the spotlight, but I just love me some Medieval 2! :D

I heard that Empire and Napoleon weren't that good, so I was very much content to stick with Medieval 2 until I got a lappy that could handle Shogun 2. Maybe I'll try them someday, but it's not a priority. :/

Rome 2, on the other hand? Squee! 8D

Rome Total war is my all time favorite. Why because the amount of mods it had made it so every time i played it i got a different experience. I wish i could say the same of the others but Empire's and Napoleon's brain dead ai made those game disappointing. I would love to like shogun 2 but i get BSoD and ctd's every time i play so thats out and I never played shogun 1.

For now, Rome, but I'm curious to buy Shogun 2 soon. Right now I've got Rome, Medieval 2, Empire and Napoleon, along with the expansion packs.

I think it's Rome, but it has one huge issue that really annoys me. Squalor breaks the game if you play it long enough. They didn't balance population growth properly, so once you start getting to the large cities, they will revolt. There is literally nothing you can do. There aren't enough buildings with bonuses to order to counter the penalties for having a large population. Not to mention by that point you will start bleeding money (also very little you can do about it) because to combat the revolts you have to lower taxes. Yeah, eventually it just breaks. Really fun up until that happens though.

For me, second place would be Empire. I really loved the detail on the ships, the fact that territories were broken up into the capital city and smaller towns, and having rows of people with muskets. Yay.
