Default Review...

Just wanted to give the Sarge, (And everyone else) a heads up.

The March Issue of PC Gamer arrived in my mailbox today. And low and behold, on Page 92, Space Empires IV, full page review, 80%, (Which is really good, in PC Gamer.)

"Fans of Reach for the Star or the Master of Orion series have a new obsession to drool over"

Finally a big name, well known print magazine shows the world what the rest of us are hooked on.

Alright, I was waiting for that magasine to review SE4. Thats a great place for publicity. We got some for free (however small though)

Tis great news. That should drive up intrest in the game. If not that article, then perhaps these forums.

I'm a newbie to this genre (previously a CRPG player) who purchased SE4 based on the PC Gamer article. So far I'm having a lot of fun trying to assimilate the complexity. I hope to become sufficiently competant to join a PBEM game (if only as cannon fodder).

SEIV also got 4 1/2 stars in Computer Games, which usually doesn't hesitate to bLast something.
