Too bad SE IV is not available on amazon, we could have read then : "270 people recommended Space Empires IV gold instead of Master of Orion 3"...

Hmmm... funny, I've never seen that many 3rd-party sellers on Amazon... "28 used & new from $15.00"

"Comments: - Complete in original small box. Opened with light wear."
Does this mean that the previous owner only threw around the box for a few seconds in a fit of rage, or for several minutes?

Never seen so much bad customer reviews on a product... I really wonder how some people can still buy it !

Specially like this one :
"
[...]
I recommend Space Empires IV Gold by Malfador Machinations instead of MOO-III.

People are stupid and will buy anything.

Now come on people, the demise of MOO3 just isn't funny, and we shouldn't laugh at the misfortune of the developppers.

Yeah, the game is virtually unplayable in it's current state. I honestly tried to like it for what it was instead of for what I wanted it to be, but it just didn't work out. The game simply isn't fun to play (for me at least, some folks seem to enjoy it). Personally, I haven't been this disappointed in a game since the first Battlecruiser.

I'm planning on giving it another shot once the code patch comes out, but my hopes aren't high. I'm trying to keep an open mind.
