The news is great, really, but the question as to why the demo took so long to produce had to be asked. Until now that is, as Iron Clad and publisher Stardock have finally pushed out a demo, which is currently available for download from Gamespot.

Still, if there's one thing that's been missing from the experience, its how to court those players still on the fence, with a demo for the 4X strategy hybrid being noticeably absent. Then again, maybe you have, considering how well the PC game has been selling since its early February debut.

Sins of a Solar Empire might just be the best game you've never played.
