Also, for those who think that Starcraft is so incredibly better than the AOE series. AOE 2 is at 92% and Starcraft is at 93% on GameRankings.

GameRanking means very little when you consider how each have stood the test of time. Starcraft, up until recently, was still widely played online. It is also mentioned in several 'best games of all time' lists because of that very reason.

Undoubtedly, both are great games, but Starcraft stuck around longer for a reason.

 

Well, I would have to say that is because of the rabid online component, in which Starcraft excels at twitch gameplay.  AoEII had a much stronger lean towards infrastructure which makes online games somewhat slow unless you alter the starting resources and such.
