Having reached the end, I think I'm ready to review. Graphics, sound, controls, all excellent. Two dimensional ship control while fighters have three, is frustrating. However, combat is designed for broadside old warship style stuff, which is made much easier by keeping it 2D. Combat can be easy or infuriatingly difficult. It seems there are very few in-between battles. Controls for telling escorts to withdraw would've been a nice addition. The story; good, but lacking. The main story arc ends up leaving you feeling a little Mass Effect 3. Not sure I even want to play through again. Side story arcs would help in the replayability.
