2001-2002 Awards and Previews A very nice preview of our game written by Matt "Kindrak" Chandronait over at GameSpy was posted on their web site November 2nd, 2002. Perhaps even the naysayers may be surprised... Thanks Matt! After an in-depth exclusive look at MOO3, Computer Gaming World calls the game, "The most ambitious strategy game of 2002." We have a 5-page preview in the January 2002 issue. Have a look at the cover, plus some other artsy goods in the "Cool Stuff" section. Oh and – buy the issue! Wow. Computer Gaming World awarded us 6th Best in Show at E3. Be sure to buy the magazine to see how our fellow games fared, but you can check out some of what they had to say right here on our site. "Improved graphics and the sheer size of the universe... should have MOO fans drooling in anticipation."  We're in the August 2001 issue of PC Gamer. Buy the issue and read the nice review. We're in the spotlight for UGO's 2001: A Game Odyssey. Boy, did they ever have some nice things to say about our game. Keep talkin' guys, we'll be your friends for sure. A team from the Wargamer, PiesTactics.com, and 10-David.com selected MOO3 as the best within the Turn Based Strategy category from all titles viewed at E3 this year. Read their review. GameSpy has announced its E3 Awards and MOO3 received one of the Runners-Up for Strategy Games. E3 gave pc.ign.com "the chance to check up on another old friend." This is another nice review of MOO3 written after author Steve Butts saw us at the expo. GameSpy said some very nice things about the MOO3 demo they saw at the 2001 E3 expo. Thanks, GameSpy! MOO3 has earned 2001 E3 BEST IN SHOW for Strategy Games! See what Gamersclick.com had to say about all the hard work we've put in thus far.
