User Rating: 9.5 | Sins of a Solar Empire PC
Graphics are amazing and gameplay is very entertaining. Map designer and multiplayer are very well made. Large scale battles can get HUGE. Over 400 units fighting each other at one time is quite remarkable. The detail in the units is also very remarkable. The selection of units is diverse as well as the planets and stars. There can be over 40 planets in a given match. More then one way to conquer the universe is also another way to play. Non-violent culture spread and culture rebelion are non violent ways to remove your enemies.
Some cons however, is the very high learning curve. I'd say it would take you about 4 hours of gameplay to fully understand how to do everything. Also, the game takes a VERY long time. One match lasted 6 hours for me.
I have never played an RTS before and I love it. The requirements are not too demanding so you shouldn't worry about crappy frame rates. The game has had a recent price drop so i HIGHLY suggest this game for a PC gamer.
