Sins of a Solar Empire, in my opinion, is not nearly as good as GalCiv2, which is made by the same people.

I found the difficulty to be a bit much, and any more than 1v1 nearly impossible, as they tend to gang up on the human. Maybe I just suck at playing it.

Also, the weird scrolling/zoom thing is unwieldy, as if you zoom in close enough to see the actual ships (and not the icons representing them) you can't even see a battle, as the ships are too far apart to both be seen in the screen.

That being said, the research system is cool, and I like the storyline - a campaign would have been nice.
