Summary

Has no equal!!!!

The Good

One of the best hybrid games ever, paving the way for a slew of great (and not-so-great) hybrids to follow. The single player was fun, engrossing, with entertaining alien races, a good plot, and fun combat which is a game in itself. (see below) Great sounds and music finish off the list of this game's finer points. MULTIPLAYER! Two player, same PC. A direct descendant of SpaceWar, with a planet, gravity, and everything! ADDICTIVE! A huge party hit. Everyone I know had their own squads of 200pt, 250pt, and the massive 300pt armadas! :)

The Bad

I can't think of single thing. :)

The Bottom Line

If you haven't played this, you're missing out.
