Yes, Prime Minister is the sequel to the award winning British political satire sitcom Yes, Minister. The series was written by Antony Jay and Jonathan Lynn and ran from 1986 to 1988. Yes, Prime Minister continues essentially with the same cast as Yes, Minister and follows the events of the premiership of Jim Hacker, played by Paul Eddington, after his unexpected elevation to Number 10 upon the resignation of the previous Prime Minister. As in Yes, Minister, the series portrays the struggles of Jim Hacker in formulating and enacting legislation or effecting policy changes while facing opposition by the British Civil Service, in particular his Cabinet Secretary, Sir Humphrey Appleby, played by Sir Nigel Hawthorne.

When it comes to choosing my most favorite parts about Harry Potter, the three Deathly Hallows from the Tales of Beedle the Bard are one of them. I guess for most of the Potterheads it is more or less the same. The entire concept of the deathly hallows just never stops to fascinate me every time I watch the movies or read the books. It is absolutely brilliant and genius how the three deathly hallows have in some way or another appeared throughout the series before the final book and the last two movies and we just never happened to get the hint of them even after being such crucial elements in the story. Well, let's just please take off our invisible hats ( or if we're wearing one :p ) to J.K Rowling once again, for gifting us potterheads with the deathly hallows. Potterheads or not, you're more than welcome to rank the list. ;)

In the never-ending argument of PC gamers vs. Console gamers, Real Time Strategy (RTS) Games have always been an ace up PC Gamer's sleeves. Even though only a handful of them can be played on consoles, RTS Games boast some of the most widely known and beloved gaming titles ever released. And with a thriving e-sports scene, these games are more popular now than they have ever been. Here is a list of the Best PC Real Time Strategy games of all time.

Age of Empires II is one of the most beloved real-time strategy games of all time. Developed by Ensemble Studios and published by Microsoft in 1999 as a sequel to the legendary Age of Empires, the game received "universal acclaim" upon release and remains a staple for RTS fans to this day. Since its initial release as Age of Empires II: Age of Kings, four expansions to the game and an HD remake has also been produced - Age of Empires II: The Conquerors (2000), Age of Empires II: HD Edition (2013), Age of Empires II HD: The Forgotten (2013) (based on the fan-made Forgotten Empires), Age of Empires II HD: The African Kingdoms (2015) and Age of Empires II HD: Rise of the Rajas (2016). At the heart of the award-winning gameplay of AOE 2 are the civilizations that players are able to choose to play with. In addition to their distinct art and play style, these civilizations have their unique set of advantages and disadvantages which are based fundamentally on a "rock-paper-scissors" architecture. This delicate balance of strengths and weaknesses extends all the way up from the overarching meta-strategy (e.g. economic boom beats defensive gameplay which in turn beats early rush strategy) down to individual units (e.g, infantry are generally powerful against buildings but weak against cavalry, thus the infantry counter units—spearmen and pikemen—have attack bonuses against cavalry). Because of the attention paid towards making each civilization as balanced as possible, any discussion of the relative ranking of these civilizations in terms of overall strength is often hotly contested. Now is the time to put all of that debate to rest - this list contains all the civilizations and their specialties in Age of Empires II and all its expansions. Rank these in the order of best to worst and let's find out what everyone thinks on average. Happy ranking and Wololo! Source(s): Age of Empires Wikia and Wikipedia
