    On the basis of this recommendation (and on being ill, unable to do much that involved getting out of bed, and really bored), I bought it from GOG. I'm not convinced that it's more fun than Rebel Galaxy, but it's definitely entertaining. It made a bad first impression, because it sets the graphics settings to extreme, which have about a 0.5-1 second control lag, making the combat impossible. Turning it down a bit made it playable (and didn't seem to noticeably impact visual quality). I haven't got very far into the story, but there's some nice variation so far.
