"It's a very interesting game"
Version: Master of Orion 2.0
Pros
It has many diffent ways to play...
Cons
it doesn't let you choose the way you play, you have to use the only law that can let you play wile that game, in difference of some other game that can give you different ways of playing...
Summary
Like i explain to you it's a straight game, and not some of a game that let you choose the way you were playing...

"No better game available anywhere for download."
Version: Master of Orion 2.0
Pros
I love the community of people who still play this game since 1995- search for "Lord Brazen". He has a chatroom where the world's smartest people get together to nerd out in one version of this or another. It's great.
Cons
I wish it were updated to modern look and sounds, but that's not crucial. At least it's bug free and a very complex, interesting game.

"This game rocks... wish 3 were more like 2"

"Amazing even afters years. Recommended to try!"
Version: Master of Orion 2.0
Pros
One of my favorites, I wanna kick myself
for losing the copy I once had. It's cool
how you can research new techs like lasers
and nuetrunium armor and stuff, form allainces with other races, colonize new planets, create frigets, battleships customized with your reasearched technology and create starbases orbiting your planet. It'l keep entertained for hours but....
Cons
....this demo will only let you play for 15 minutes (Did I just hear someone cry?)
each, 5 times. So you get into it then...
It ends leaving you wanting more,least in my opinion.

Summary
It use simple enough but sophisticated. Unlike Orion 3 with good graphic but lack of simpleness.
