yes space empires 4 is the best...

[Eagle of Fire]

Hummm, I tryied Space Empire 4 demo and I don't see what is interesting in that. Much like a Wargame to me, the game name is very deceiving.

Well I'm not sure I understand what you mean? Space Empire is like Master of Orion, only more advanced and with more options.

[DakaSha]

yeah its more more of a space game than moo ever was in my opinion... in space empires you actually have to think strategicaly...moo was build research and build again faster then all others then destroy. dont work in space empires... you can actually win with just spy activity.

i guess this is off topic

I split it from the Freeorion thread guys, so feel free to keep discussing.

Sadly, I have nothing to add to the discussion, as I haven't played the game. It sounds like I should check it out, though.

[MdaG]

Yup it rules. Its not sold anymore so I'm hoping Abandonia will put it up soon....

ive got 96 custom races in a zip file in case anybody feels like waiting 2 hours for it to be sent over ICQ

i truly reccomend the Culture balancing Mod as the original culture spread sheet really really REALLY sucks.

Well, after following the link you game me I went to the download page and downloaded the demo. It looked like a very complex Master of Magic game.

What's supposed to be "Space" something in that game?

Edit: At the top it says to download "SE4GoldDemo.exe", but when I click on the download link it gives out "Dominion2demo_install.exe".

Go figure.

There must be some mistake. This is Gamespots review.

*edit*

Yeah, that link is faulty...

[Eagle of Fire]

From the screenshots it look like a good game...

Any way to get the demo somewhere?

Mdag: that's where I tryied to get the demo, it doesn't give out the right one.

[MdaG]

Try getting the demo here.

[Eagle of Fire]

Hopefully it's the right one now. I'll look at it later.

Edit: That game designer site is very stupid. I can't find somewhere or a link to contact the webmaster(s)...  

I don't really want to go by the customer support either...

[MdaG]

Lets just hope that "out of print" is enough to label it abandoned and you won't have to bother. The game was never sold in shops, only online...

[Eagle of Fire]

And how exactly can a game be "out of print" and abandonware if it is sold only online?  

I really don't follow your logic.

[MdaG]

I thought "out of print" meant "we're not making any more CD's of this game any more". By online I meant that you had to order the game.

I can't even click the "Order now" button...

That's basically "my logic" as you put it.
