Lost Empire

Has anyone checked out this new 4X title?  Spotted it today for $30, but didn't want to take it on a plane with me.

It bears a suspicious resemblence to Master of Orion 2.

Ahh.. playable demo link here..

I find it has problems, and firther support is currently up in the air.
Ths hip models aren't that great either.

To be honest, I think it is a distant second to Galciv 2 and it's expansions.
However, it does deserve credit for it's galaxy size, scope, and interesting approach to the tech tree.
I just think you'd be better getting Galciv2 or sins of A solar Empire.
God said to the Welsh: 'I am going to give you this glorious land of lakes and mountains.' So where's the catch, asked the Welsh? 'Wait until you see the neighbours,' replied God.
