From Strategy Informer: "There's a consensus in the PC world that the realm of the RTS isn't what it used to be. Fans of the genre will fondly recall titles such as Red Alert and Dungeon Keeper in the early days before moving onto heavyweights such as Rome: Total War and Company of Heroes. Nowadays though, the MMO has taken over. Thought perplexing Strategy has been tossed aside by the brutish rush tactics of Warcraft and Co. So along comes Sins of a Solar Empire, looking to fill up that black hole with a meaty asteroid of RTS gameplay."
