We are well into 2009, but the PC game awards for 2008 have not stopped yet, but we aren’t complaining! The latest news comes from Maximum PC which has published their top PC game awards for 2008, and Sins of a Solar Empire made the list.
“Sure, it’s a 4X (eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, eXterminate) space-exploration RTS and plays a lot like a real-time version of the board game Risk, but it’s one of the most fun and engrossing multiplayer RTSes we’ve ever played. The real risk (in space) that developer Stardock Entertainment took was releasing its precious baby with absolutely no DRM. Did it get pirated? Sure. But it also sold more than 500,000 copies. Not shabby for a game with a budget of less than a million bucks.”
