I can't believe I've missed this but early access for the Master of Orion reboot goes live today on Steam and at GoG.com.  Woot!

Take a look/listen at some of the voice acting.
Power corrupts.
Absolute power is kinda neat.

Such an incredible game. I played the original and still play the iPad app. I host started the Steam download.

Yeah, all the Star Trek alumni.  Oh and, you know, Mark Hamill.   ;D

Saw a preview on YouTube last night...looks pretty amazing. Will likely wait until it gets formally released, but who knows... ;)

I saw on their Facebook page they are looking at about three months to complete development depending on what kind of feedback they get from early access.

Seems GoG gave me a permanent 5% off for having the MOO pack already. Decisions...decisions...

I'm watching Quill18's Let's Play for the Early Access.

MOO 1 and 2 were great! MOO3 was crap :(

Really interested to see what Wargamming does with this property.

I picked up MOO1-2 a couple years ago off of GoG and I still play them every now and then.
Where am I going? And why am I in a hand basket ???

MOO 3 had a lot of great ideas that were poorly executed.
