Its this weekends Impulse Buy, and £12 for the complete edition seems like a pretty good deal, since I enjoy 4x games. I'm downloading the demo at the moment, but anyone got some good/bad things to say about it? A search shows that it occasionaly gets mentioned in the 4X threads that pop up from time to time, but it generally gets ignored in favour of the larger names out there.
 
It's one of the best x4 space games even after all these years we still play it multiplayer over here. Games tend to be very slow and take hours or days to complete. As with many x4 space games there is no campaign just scenario's and random maps.

One of my favourite bits is the tech tree as each race has a different chance for each tech to appear in that game. Even better all the races are very different.
 
Thanks for the reply, though can anyone else offer an opinion on it? I've heard good and bad things about this in reviews.
I do love 4x games, especially civ and GC2, so I'm leaning towards getting this anyway.
