Is rome total war any good? I haven't played an rts since star wars empire at war. I'm looking to get back into this genre but wanted one that is addictive and fun and has great graphics but is extremely addictive . What would you guys recommend?

Also depending on how many friends who play, popular MOBA games like DotA 2, HoN and LoL would...
