   What recent 4X games do you recommend?
  Hi,I'm looking to waste some weekend-time with realtime 4X games (think Civilization, Master of Orion.. but realtime) that were released relatively recently (like 2000 and forward).Personally I thought Fragile Allegiance was tons of fun and almost perfect, but it was way too shallow and didn't have enough detail to keep me interested for very long.Any ideas?Edit: Clarified realtime.[Edited by - SymLinked on May 3, 2010 11:34:50 AM]
  Civ and MoO are turn based games, not realtime. If you want realtime 4X games, the only one I can really think of is Sins of a Solar Empire. If you want turnbased, I guess Space Empires V would be the one to best fit the bill.   ;  Saw a few videos on YouTube about Sins.. it does remind me of Homeworld but that can't be bad. Thanks!   ;  Sins is awesome.  Plus you can save/load multiplayer games, so your four-week realtime game with friends doesn't have to be played in one sitting! [wink]
