GalCiv 2 demo out in 30 hours
The demo will be out 30 hours from now, and I hate to say this... but I'd still recommend holding off. I can't give a good estimate because it looks like Brad got addicted to Oblivion, but the final 1.1 patch is still officially scheduled for the end of the month. I don't know whether they plan to keep the demo and the full version at the same patch number, though. I can assure you that the version on which the demo is based does not give ..."spoiled and picky" people a good impression.
The game still has some pretty major problems (IMO. Obviously there are those who disagree) but it's still getting better fast, and it's not going anywhere, so ultimately everyone who has not tried it yet would be happier waiting a bit longer (even those who would enjoy it in the present state). I guarantee it. Furthermore, even when complete, the game will need some heavy modding, and there is one feature (starbase HP) that cannot be modded yet, which prevents any modding of anything directly comparable to starbase HP (e.g., ship HP and weapon damage) without breaking the game.
EDIT: Sorry, jumped the gun. I thought it was out.
