As for 4x games, there really aren't any worth playing other than SEIV. Not too sure about RTS though, sorry.

it's Stars!



and yes that is one great 4X game that rivals SEIV in many aspects imho. (definetly not in looks, but that's not what I'm looking for in a strategy game like this)

OK. No 4x anymore. I have games: Homeworld, Homeworld: Cataclysm, Homeworld 2, Galactic Civilizations, Master of Orion 2, Master of Orion 3, Space Empires 3, Space Empires 4, Heagemonia, Nexus, Starfleet Command 3

I try stars,b ut last time I tried that game, I didn´t like it. I like more SEIV. Mostly modded. Dont remember when I last time played vanilla.

Done those. Also VGAPlanets both 3 and 4beta. And Stars! And Alpha Centauri. And Spaceward Ho! And one with zergs. and one I cant rememeber with a one word name but it had a really great rotating 3-dimensial map and tech tree. And more if I dug thru my stuff.

Of all of them Stars! was my favorite (its even still on the machine and gets played sometimes) until it was knocked out by Space Empires IV loaded with tons of mods. Now I cant picture what might replace that except for maybe Space Empires V (coming soon to a galaxy near you)
