    Default Today i uninstalled RTW

    In preparation for getting M2TW tomorrow at the Gold Code event, today i unistalled some games to free up some hard disk space. One of the games i uninstalled was RTW. This is the first time since the day it came out that it has not been on my computer. It has given me 2 years of playing time, and i still even played vanilla. No games series has the replayabilty and appeal to me of the TW series. Im gonna miss RTw, but its making way for an even better game.

    Completely Agreed! I did the same myself the other day. I've not played it much over the past 6 months, but something has kept it on my drive...

    I'll be picking my copy of MTW2 up after my Ancient Greek class Friday. I'll have just got an Essay done by then too...so nothing will inhibit the playing time. Apart from going out I guess lol.

    How touching. I've enjoyed it two years too. Had to keep some break at some points, but still, I've never played one game so much. Luckily I have plenty of HD space, so Rome shall be spared. Propably I'll still play it, some mods need testing and I still have one campaign unfinished.

    Thank you, oh mighty Rome: Total War! :tacticalw

    I am clearing up my computer now before M2TW comes out where I am. I am just taking all of those games off I don't seem to play anymore, which is most of them. Yay, lots of space.

    I have a 250GB one, but a lot of space is taken up with work.

    I'm still playing RTW (RTR Platinum). Even when I get my hands on M2TW, I'm going to at least keep my backup of RTW/BI for the major mods coming at the end of the year.

    I had about six copies of RTW on my system...but I've deleted all but my two mods and I left one copy for Caius Brittanicus' Crusades mod (if it ever comes out).

    But I did remove SimCity4 for the first time in about four years, and also removed Knights of Honor (since I won't be playing that anymore!), Dawn of War, and CivCity:Rome.

    Agree 100%! I've still got countless HOURS of replayability in Rome, and that's not even considering the potential lifespan of MTW2!

    I also had multiple mods on my system, but I narrowed them down to my prefs of TE, XGM and Goth mod for BI. I'll still keep playing them even after I get Medieval :-)

    RTW will NEVER leave my computer. The good memories will always live on :wink: . The awesome mods that came out, the +1000 hours i put into this game the past two years... I've had 5 copies at the same time on my computer for all my favorite mods (and still). So here you go;

    Cheers RTW!

    Gogogo M2TW!

    Rome, the longest lifespan of a strategy game that ever entered my computer! The longest break i took from it must have been about a month.

    So cheers to Rome! :tacticalw

    Same here, I don't usually play strategy games this long but the TW series is different.

    I've already uninstalled RTW a few days ago, I played the crap out of that game and I'm ready for MTW2.

    I will standby Rome. At least until RTR 7.0, Crusades, Hegenmonia, Lotr-tw, And EB .8 bore me... Or until M2TW counterparts come out first.

    I'm having to remove every game I have, plus all of my family photos and videos and music just to make room. I have a measly 40gigs.
    As a teenager, I was taken to various houses and flats above takeaways in the north of England, to be beaten, tortured and raped over 100 times. I was called a “white slag” and “white ****” as they beat me.
