Nice screenshots too.

Since stars will actually age over the course of a game, you'll want to explore as many galaxies as possible before their suns become supernovas and collapse, leaving the surrounding planets inhospitable and lifeless.

Interesting.

The game is scheduled for release next February.

Also interesting.

WOOOOT! New screenies!
Now that combat screenshot looks impressive... especially with the FPS rating and resolution! I wonder what video card that one came from...
Ooh, looky, system facility modifiers are displayed in the system view!
Now how the heck are stars supposed to age over the course of the game? Do the Sithrak/Malfadorians/whatever cause them to age unnaturally quickly?
Ooh, warp points are BIG in combat!
Hmm, the Eee are a bit... scary looking... but it's nice to know the Phong and most of our favorite races are in
Radiation is millirads per YEAR? Millirads already factors in time...
Hey, does that last screenshot suggest tactical GROUND combat???

Oh yeah, the actual article... I was too busy looking at the pretty pictures
OK, so which is it - February or Q4 2005?

Nice article, even if it did confuse galaxies and solar systems

Well, I can't wait! I got a new FX57 and a set of SLI'd 7800 just waiting to show me what this game has to offer

Bleh... the description in that very short preview barely sounds like SE. Either MM is planning some large changes, or this guy didn't look very closely at what was shown to him.

I'm betting "crappy article".

Well concidering the media blackout SEV has been under, I'm happy to see some information at all at this point.
