Master of Orion: Collector's Edition

WTF? Lies, damned lies, and marketing BS

I'm offended by the aggressive attachment of the classic name to this game, which has nothing in common with them. It's almost as big of a travesty as X-COM: Interceptor and XCOM: The Bureau (neither of which, you may note, did well). Movement restricted to warplines? "Realtime" tactical combat? Bleah. Taken on its own merits, this looks like a credible, if unoriginal game in the "turn based strategy/"realtime" tactical" 4X space game subgenre. But it is unoriginal, so its only claim to fame is the use of the classic title, which is a flat out lie.
