Hi Kenny,PC Gamer (UK) magazine slated the 'official' Alexander movie game. You would probably be better off playing Rome:Total War as the Seluicid Empire if you wanted to take charge of a Macedonian style army!?regards,Kit.

Chris hail Thats a real let down I would really like to take control Of Darius and try bheat Alexander.But if as you say the Roman one is more akin to Macedonians then its a waste of time.Cheerrs Kenny

Hi Kenny,I know zilch about computer games, but my fourteen year old son, Alexander, is an addict. He agrees with Chris that the Stone movie based game is poor, but ROME Total War is his current favourite and he says it is brilliant, especially if you enjoy strategy and tactics. Don't know if that helps, but from what I've seen of it ROME does look interesting.Cheers,Kate
