Just saw the copy and it's labelled in texta. > hardly an original... :( Wow, I totally missed this game. Did it ever reach Europe? I have the X series and the Homeworld series, but today is the first I've heard of Starshatter. I notice there's an expansion/upgrade too, called Gathering Storm (isn't that a HoMM title??). Anyway, what's it like? Is it worth buying for those starved of space-sim fun? My rig is too old to run Darkstar One so I've not found a decent space sim since Freelancer ... (ok ok apart from X2 & X3 ...) CC
