Hurricane Gaming (3.5/5) "On the surface, there are a lot of limitations to this game. The mediocre graphics, poor sound effects, and lack of a formal story are pretty major, but I want to impress on people that I still love this game. I paid the full price for SE4 and I don’t regret a cent of the purchase"




Disregard this review. The guy was smok'in crack and had been up for 6 days strait when he mistakenly wrote this review of our beloved game. (Flame yes, but honestly... who flamed first. A 3.5/5 - give me a break!)

One thing that always got me in StarCraft was on the terran mission where you lose kerrigan, even if she is with the main force of massive numbers, and is in a transport, she still gets captured. Amazing, she must run willingly to the Zerg
The story must go on though

Taken from the gamesdomain review:
Space Empires IV gives you the option of starting with a colony ship orbiting your starting planet

Huh? The option to start with only a colony ship?

Reading over it again, the GameOver review seems insulting in some ways.

ISTR that somebody made a scenario with something like this, but it's not in the standard SE IV game.

I think Reach for the Stars had this option. Maybe the reviewer was just confused.
