I'm a big Master of Orion 2 fan as it was a game I spent a large amount of my childhood playing, so this new entry to the series has me rather excited. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

That's impressive. Betcha it was easier to get them because it's MOO and half these people are nerds who probably used to play hours and hours of it.

This looks great! Mark Hammil is a great voice actor, best performance of the joker in Batman IMO.

That is some impressive voice talent that they have gotten on board! I recognised a lot of those faces!

Impressive cast indeed. Never played the original but the remake definitely looks beautiful.

Will definitely buy this because of Alan Tudyk.

Probably? The way they're talking, most of them were hardcore fans of the original.

Oh, I'd daresay that fits each and every one of them... Each new one they introduced was...wow...just...WOW...

I'm not geeking (too much...) over this- but now I'm really looking forward to nabbing the game when they ship...

Oh absolutely, like everyone in that cast is top notch. It's just that I'm such a fan of John De Lancie. The man is a gift.
