Summary

GREAT 3D twist on Real-Time Strategy!

The Good

A fabulous 3D engine with all of the RTS standards (resources, research, combat, etc) ... great sound and atmospheric effects. Starcraft in space, if you will.

The single player mode is engrossing and very challenging, all in all a great game for single or multi play

The Bad

The lack of variety in multiplayer maps was a let-down. The control system, while fairly easy to learn, is difficult at first. I recommend the tutorial and practice to get the most out of this game.

The Bottom Line

Well worth your time and money ... Sierra needs to keep releasing great games like this ... :)
