STELLAR CIVILIZATIONS

REVIEW BY JASPREET SHAHEED, PAGE 2
As with other games the "Open ended theme' In-game screen(click to enlarge) reoccurs- the idea that you can choose your own destiny. I also like the idea of the AI changing as well. After all, the joy of playing a human opponent lies partly in the fact that tactics can't be repeated. If you can beat the AI in the same way each time it takes the joy out of reading Sun Tzu.

"Never repeat the tactics that have gained you one victory, let your methods by regulated by the infinite variety of circumstances'. - Sun Tzu

But if you know you can beat the AI what is the point!?!
In conlusion, I find myself saying that we will have to wait to see an awful lot, but this makes it none the less true. I'll be looking out for Stellar, if its makers get the right mix, almost impossible to characterise but none the less perfect (civ & civII anybody !!) then Stellar may prove a giant killer.
