Space Empires is not really a good game for shoot em up type people to play. Reference my brother. He got bored after the first ten minutes because he didn't get to shoot or blow up anything.

...I like shoot'em'ups.

I like pretty much everything but sports games (Only got into one of those, but I was rather good at it).

I guess part of it is that I'm good at any type of game, but great at none. (Although I can be great at a game).

Narf, you just woke up? What time zone do you live in?

One thing I do know is that it takes some patience to learn this game. Those with little patience will never stick with it long enough to enjoy it.

Well you have to remember that this game requires thought and not just a fast clicker finger.

No offense but I call this the eight year old syndrom.

Hey wilhil, I think I saw a post of yours at the egosoft forums a couple days ago! Do you go by wilhil there too? Can't wait for X3 to arrive! (later release in North America... )

yeah, I go by that on every site I am a member of, and I should be the only one! my Name is WILliam HILsum and I just like that AKA!

I have been a xer from the X-BTF days years ago! but I will be waiting for the USA release this time, on x2 starforce messed my pc up.

I used to be on the egosoft forums all the time (check my profile there and date joined !) but about a year ago I moved and hang out with people with intrests in one of my jobs (programming) at gamedev.net I enjoy it there more because I find that egosoft forum admins are a bit to lock happy!
