How is Sins of a Solar Empire? It looks interesting, but rather challenging.
It's alright, but the game balance is very poor. Missile frigates are among the cheapest and lowest-tech ships in the game, but are very powerful compared to almost everything else. Capitol ships are terribly cost-ineffective, and most technologies are not worth the cost of researching. Single player is alright, but the AI is not very strong. A friend who had never played the game and I defeated 6 allied "hard" AIs without much of a fight.

Didn't live up to the hype, in my opinion.
