Runs on potatoes and still looks good (like my old i3 laptop with integrated HD5500 graphics)
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
5 of 43 sampled reviews raised it
The main campaign is a little short, but since you can go back and replay to get more points or challenge yourself at a higher difficulty level; or design your own custom mission for solo or multiplayer gameplay; there is some nice casual replay value here if you feel like blowing stuff up without spending 6 months building up a ship like in Elite or Eve Online :)
