You know how a brand name like Kleenex for facial tissue or asprin for pain relief sometimes becomes the generic name for the entire class of product after time or being very successful?
Well I just read a review of MOO3 on Gamespot, and besides moo3 having many similarities to SEIV, there is also these interesting quotes:
"Master of Orion helped define the genre of "4X" space empire games" and "The game packs in a lot of complexity for hard-core fans of space empire games"
Anyway, here is the link:
