The Games for Windows marketplace hasAge of Empires III: The Complete Collectionfor10 centstoday only. That’s $0.10, £0.10 or €0.10 in case you were wondering.
The Complete Collection includesAge of Empires IIIas well asThe Asian DynastiesandThe WarChiefsexpansions. It might not have been as good asAge of Empires II: Age of Kingsaccording to a lot of fans of that game, but I still enjoyed it a lot. Even if there was a distinct lack of “Wololo”.
Alternatively, you can tell Microsoft they can forget about having your creditcard information (just in case you don’t want them accidentally renewing your Gold subscription) and buy it for 10 Microsoft points. It’s even less than 10 cents that way (actually it’s not)! Do you have points left over that will never end up in an amount you can use for games on Xbox Live? Don’t want to buy avatar items? Well, there you go then.
The downside? You have to download the Games for Windows Marketplaceclientto do it and you need a Live account.Age of Empires IIIrequires a Pentium 3 1.4GHz, 256MB of RAM and a videocard with 64MB RAM.
