With the end of the year rapidly approaching, we are seeing more and more “best of 2008” lists comes out, and today we have Wired.com’s top 5 PC Games of 2008.

Sins of a Solar Empire makes into the list at #3.

The depth of the gameplay and the customization options are amazing enough. But when you extrapolate them out over the game's nearly-endless virtual spacescape, you see why Sins fans regularly claim to have spent thousands of hours immersed in it. -- Earnest Cavalli’

Pure awesome sauce!

Note: given each title is for a different thing one could argue it was the best in its area and overall number three out of all games released this year.

w00t!  I hope this spurs on more sales of the game and ups the online player counts.

You're obsessed!!

Do you wake up everyday and brush your teeth wondering what happens today that might increase SoaSE online player counter?
You're freaked.

 

Anewayz I hope sync bugs get cleared soon and an official final patch gets out.
Some people might think wrong of Sins if they buy it, go online and get desynced out on their first game.
