Stardock's much anticipated 4X real-time strategy game has gone gold and is expected to debut at most retail outlets in North America next week. It'll also be available for digital download directly from SinsOfASolarEmpire.com via TotalGaming.net

Sins of a Solar Empire is a space-based strategy game set in the distant future that pits the human-controlled Trade Coalition against the ruthless Advent and the alien Vasari for control of a series of star systems.

The game features both single-player gameplay as well as advanced multiplayer features such as saving and resuming multiplayer games, integrated map design that can be used immediately in multiplayer, and more.

All the Civilization games, also Stardock's own Galatic Empires.

However, the difference is that it's a hybrid Real time / Turn Based game.

Looks great. I'm glad to see games with well implemented zooming (although it makes playing older RTS games a little annoying when its not possible to zoom).

Don't be silly.

SINS, is not an MMO.

Sins does not have 50 million players playing at a time.

Sins is a RTS with 4X Elements.
