    Hi, I recently got aoe 3 for pc and I was wondering what would be the best laptop to run it on? Would I need Windows Vista or XP to run it or what? Sorry I'm not tech savvy!

    Anything made in the last 5 years should do.

    AOE3 is 10 years old.

    So I wouldn't need any thing specifically speaking? Thanks for the reply

    Any modern laptop even of terrible specs will run it. It runs on my crappy Windows tablet perfectly

    And would I need Windows Vista or XP or something different from running Windows 8 now?
