Send to email | Sins Of A Solar Empire Sells Half A Million [Sins Of A Solar Empire] in Sins of a Solar Empire News PC Pc Games Stardock | By Luke Plunkett el 05-Sep-2008 | Well played, sirs! It's been announced earlier today that Sins of a SOlar Empire - Stardock's sleeper-hit PC space strategy game - has sold over 500,000 copies. That's around 400,000 at retail, and over 100,000 via digital download. Considering it's a very PC PC game (ie there are menu buttons everywhere), and cost only $1 million to make, calling it a success story would be selling it short by several orders of magnitude.
