    Yea I thought I saw it. I didn't give it much thought until I saw this topic. At the time I thought it might have been a knock-off game, but now I'm not sure.

    EDIT: For the life of me I can't find this commercial anywhere on the internet. GAH!!!

    EDIT2: Found it, it was a Verizon commercial that's why. There's only about 1 second of footage, but it looks like a knock-off.

    Yeah, that's no way a Total War title.

    Edit - Someone in the comments on that video identified it as 'History Great Battles Medieval'.

    Knock off. Might not even be a real game, just a flash vid to show off.

    Corrected action is the most sincere form of apology.

    I don't get this ad. You apparently need a type F* lightning storm to get these tabs working.

    Not very practical, imo.
