Wow! What an incredible gaming experience. I completed The Ur-Quan Masters last night. As I mentioned in a previous news entry, this game is actually an updated, free version of the original classic, Star Control II: The Ur-Quan Masters. I now know why Star Control II is frequently on lists as one of the greatest games of all time. I heartily agree with this assessment. The game play was fun, the story was well-conceived, and the humor was top-notch. In fact, the sense of humor in the writing was one of my favorite parts of the game. Plus, the voice acting enhanced the dialog for me. That is not something I can say about every game. I thought it was one of the cleverest and funniest games since the Fallout series. I just added it to my All-Time Favorites list.
