Just having fun here:
"The well-wrought campaign mode doesn’t quite display Blizzard’s flair for RTStorytelling."
LOL. As much as I like WC3, its storyline is almost the same as SC's storyline: good guy gets assimilated to the ugly side and becomes a great leader.

Gamepro is one of the worst magazines ever. It has some of the worst reviews ever. I remember when they said that the Panasonic 3DO was going to be the next big thing in like 93, I bet half the people in this forum don't even know what that is.
I could get more accurate game reviews from an insane gorrilla with roids then I could from gamepro.

GamePro IS one of the worse magazines ever. on earth.
If they dont even know how to zoom in and out and rotate, then they must really SUCK. They dont deserve to review games, or even have their own magazine!

The review you read and the review I read are not the same. I followed your link but either you quoted wrong or they changed the review (probably the latter).
The part of the review I thought the worst was
Quoted from Bad review:
Ensemble’s also done a fine job in balancing unit types—there’s more to the interaction between Myth, Hero, and regular units than the simple “archers are good against horses” system you’re used to...
Has there been any game ever where archers are good against horses? Does this reviewer even play RTS games?

I have noticed it to be a trend with AoM reviews; I saw one review (can't think of the site) that said it was fresh, innovative, good theme, great looking, etc. and they gave it something around an 80! I mean really, how can you be so stupid? And then WC3 got a similar, yet not-so-spectacular review, and ended up with a score over 90! Let's not be bias, anyone
There have been reviews saying there are only 3 gods, some say favor is called "power points", heck some just say stuff that's not in the game at all. It's not right, not right at all. I saw we lynch every last one of'em! .

gosh this is funny, thinking that this will get thousands of people to not buy AOM because they think that the above is true...

Yea, most people who buy AoM are "casual gamers" who have never been to forums, and never will be, and won't play online. They go to the store and buy it, since it looks cool .
I still say we lynch 'em

People who are interested in the game should download the demo and make their own decisions.
