The new Master of Orion is coming to Linux, but you know that already if you read us often. The awesome news is the voice cast has been revealed, and it's awesome.

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.
QuoteMark Hamill (Star Wars Saga) in addition to Alan Tudyk (Firefly), Michael Dorn (Star Trek: The Next Generation), Kat Cressida (Haunted Mansion), Dwight Schultz (Babylon 5), and Robert Englund (A Nightmare on Elm Street) talk about how they brought the races to life.

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.

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...

Unfoooooortunately, Early Access starts with Windows only. Mac/Linux will be added later so don't be overexcited. Yet.
