Sin of a Solar Empire is an amazing game. While it lacks some features games such as 'Homeworld' lack, such as unit coloration and the option to remove unit capping. The game does however add many thing's 'Homeworld' never had. The industrialization of planets, as well as a vast economic RPG. This game is easy to get into, and highly addictive. I would recommend this game to any fan of Simulation Games, or Real Time Combat games. Some of the additional pro's of this game are, if not enough by itself, the ability to create massive, even ridiculously sized maps! I myself created and played a map that took over 79 hours to complete. As well as downloads and user created mods, this game doesn't lose steam easily! If you are looking for a longtime game, with plenty to offer, as well as a massive online experience (with proper connections) you can stop your search. Plus the games cheap! $29 for a game that easily rivals most games. On a graphical scale, I'd say this game is a 8. Some textures are repetitive, and the extreme close-up of capital ships is slightly lacking.
