Age of Empires 3 looked amazing in the screenshots, but when we actually got to the playing part, we weren't so thrilled anymore. In any case, everyone loved it, even if it was just another peasant building simulator. The long pause between the Age of Empires 2 and 3 has pushed the game from simple sequel to a godly state. If you're expecting to get a lot of different things from it, you'll be wrong, but if you want the same gameplay, then you can't miss this title. These are some helpful cheats for those of you that have forgotten what it's all about:

Press [Enter] and type in the codes; confirm any code with [Enter] again.

Nova & Orion - 10,000 XP

X marks the spot - No fog of war
Ya gotta make do with what ya got - Spawns the Mediocre Bombard at your Home City gather point
Sooo Good - It says Musketeer'ed! when you get killed by Musketeers
