Master of Orion 3

loved the detailed background story of galactic history beginning at Centre one! Hoping for a 2012 remake!

The game intrigues me because it started out with this big and detailed background story. Graphics were not the best around but for me that doesn't matter.
The fact that you can do real time battle, fleet against fleet, was also a big part of what made this game so epic.

The space empire building type of game is exactly what I like and the vastness of the Master of Orion 3 game is great, more than 250 stars on the 'huge' map!

The only thing that was disappointing was the weak AI and the technical flaws in the game itself. I'm not as great a reviewer as others I have seen here, I wrote this just because I love the game and spend countless hours playing it.

Does anybody know if Master of Orion 3 is going to get a present day face lift anytime soon? If so I'm going to be the first to buy it! :)

  There is not a better example in killing a great and succesful series. Master of Orion 3 is the shining precedence.
