Best Total War game in the series, bar none...
I was floored by this version of Total War: Rome II . Great improvement in all areas. However, I downloaded the game from Steam, even though my video ram does not meet the requirements of the game (I have a 256 mb video card and this game requires 512 mb. Nevertheless, the game ran on my system with only minor graphics problems created when you zoom into the fray of battle. A minor problem I was more the willing to put up with. After three days of continuous playing (the game is highly addictive) the game suddenly won't load at all. Not sure if this is a game problem, or a problem created by Steam (since when I open the game it goes straight to a "News Update" Steam window that is blank) and stays there until I close the window. It is as if the game no longer exists in my applications, though it is still there. Anyone have any ideas of why this has occured?
