Strategic space sim review suggestions..?

Comments (3)

So, after reading Willthegreat's Flotilla review, I started thinking..

There are a few games similar to this. That all are kind of interesting. From Star Control, to O.R.B, Homeworld 1&2, to Nexus: The Jupiter Incident. The Star Trek game with the ship to ship battles. ..can we count E.V.E. Online in here? Masters of Orion..?

And we're ranging from more or less arcade combat to strategic resource and empire-building, and to the more narrative-driven large ship combat in Nexus, all the way to the combined scenario-driven Homeworld.

But there's two themes here. Space exploration and strategic ship combat.

Anyone want to do a theme-thing, and post the reviews at about the same time? A strategic space-sim theme for a particular week, something like that..?

If anyone's interested.. maybe pick a game on the list, or something else that fits, and I'll take the remaining one :)

Heck, I was born for this kind of thing. I can think of at least a dozen off the top of my head here. :D

Well, it was great that at least one person signed up. :D

Anyone else?

If not, I'm picking "Nexus: The Jupiter Incident".

I've since downloaded Flotilla. So, sure, why not.
