I love this type of game. I loved the first superpower despite it's horrible controls. This game corrected all the things wrong with the first. It made troop movements and economic controls easy. Covert ops actually matter now, and the whole game acts realistic enough for my tastes (or for what can be realistically expected from a civilian geopolitical simulator). BUT This game is unplayable out of the box: 1. Starforce is installed spyware style without any notification. It lurks as a driver installation and messes up a lot of people's ability to burn cd's, as well as many other problems. 2. This game is even more bug filled than the original. And that's saying a lot. With 4 or 5 more patches the game might work, and than my score would be near perfect, but there must be a stand made. STOP RELEASING BETAS AS FINAL VERSIONS!
