Guide Picks - Top 9 Expansions for Computer Games
|
 |
 |
|
The majority of computer games released in today's market are released with the plan to offer an expansion 6-12 months after the original release in order to keep interest up and sales steady. This also provides a great opportunity to continue or expand your experience with your favorite games. Here are my top expansion picks for Fall '02. Please note that most of these and the majority of all expansion packs require you to have the original game(non expansion) already installed on your PC. For example you wouldn't be able to play or install Age of Empires II: The Conquerors Expansion, unless you already had Age of Empires II: Age of Kings installed.
