1. Long ago they talked about making a 4X game with a 5th X... THE AI OVERRIDES YOUR DECISIONS. That's a feature people who play games about megalomanaiacal galactic dominance want to see.

2. Everyone who buys the game says it's ugly, buried in disgusting numbers and graphs and flowcharts, says everyone in the world will hate it. Everyone, that is, save themselves who are enlightened beings able to look beyond crap graphics, annoying gameplay, and whatever other unpleasant suprises the game had in store and appreciate it for it's hype alone. Kinda like all the reviewers of Space Empires 4 save this guy.

3. Game turns out to be so goddamned poorly designed that you need to buy a strategy guide, not to rock the house at it, mind you, but simply to play it competently.

4. Tom Chick, professional game-reviewer with a long history of giving crappy big-name games glowing reviews because he's a whore, not only says this game sucks, but sits down at his personal site where game reviews rarely exceed 2 paragraphs, and pounds out 4 pages of hate for this game, not based on one or two bad features that ruin a good idea but rather EVERY SINGLE ASPECT of MOO gameplay people would care about, including the amazing "5th X!" My rule of thumb is, if the whores lightly indicate it's bad, it's terrible. If the whores say it's awful, we've got Tresspasser 2 on our hands. I'm suprised he could type out that whole review in 60 seconds.

5. The final nail in the coffin: They thought it would be cute to add artifacts called... get ready for it... the 5 Xs! Fags.

Anyone tried Starships Unlimited?
