Sins of a Solar Empire is still a good game, despite the fact that it does contain anything dramatically new than some of its predecessors like the already mentioned Homeworld. The game itself is fun to play and the interfaces make playing easy. When I first played I found the AI quite difficult as I didn't really know what I was doing.

Playing it more got me some good practice and I improved. If you aren't into the RTS in space, then depending on your skill level you might find it hard the first few times you play through. I was on the whole happy with the AI; at times they did some dumb things which have since been patched up with new patches, but a challenge none the less.

So if you enjoy real time strategies in space and you're looking for a stunning visual experience you'll enjoy this game.
