rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mauldinl - I'll do my best to go into the generalities and my impressions of the book without going into too many details. This book is too good to give any of the good stuff away.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mauldinl - It has been several years since Master of Orion II (MOO2) came out, and we are still waiting for an acceptable heir to appear. Luckily, MOO3 should be out in a year or two. Until then, we must contend with knock-offs that are not quite up to par with...
