Best Age of Empires of the franchise

This was the best Age of Empires for me, and the one I played the most. The perfect historical time, very nice and consistent graphics, different modes of winning a game, navy battleships.
The campaign history is enjoyable across the expansions, and the online mode was very advanced when it started back in 2005.
There is now the Definitive Edition in which we can revive again the memories playing this game with better graphics and improved online mode!
