Freespace,

This review is from: Descent: Freespace: The Great War (Jewel Case) (CD-ROM)
As a pilot in the Gallactic Terran Alliance (GTA), you've known the Vasudans as the enemy for a long time. But things are about to change... An unknown menace, with technology beyond both ours and Vasudans, are destroying both sides... And now... Old enemies must unite to fight this common enemy, and the dissenters and traitors on both sides...Descent: Freespace is a new chapter in space dogfight sims. The graphics are bigger, better, with more weapons and missiles/bombs. The capships in this game are truly HUGE (kilometers long, compared to your puny fighter). It also has true online multiplayer that puts it heads and shoulders above the rest. Take fighters and bombers on attack, recon, escort, and sweep missions against enemy capships and fighters/bombers. Defend your own capships and other assets... Your rating and performance is noted after every mission, with suggestions (if applicable). You can call in reinforcements (if available), and your wingmen actually do fight intelligently, as there can be dozens of fighters flying about.

One of the best space sims I've played,

I would have to say that this is one of the best space sims out there. I have owned this game since it came out in the 90's and even with all of the great advances in graphics it still remains competitive with the newer technologies. This game has a great storyline with tons of different ships and weapons to use. I would highly recommend this game to everyone that likes space based games. I would also recommend that anyone planning on getting this game invest in a good joystick since it is much much harder to play using only your keyboard.

BEST GAME I EVER PLAYED!!!,
By d. enes - Published on Amazon.com
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Descent: Freespace: The Great War (Jewel Case) (CD-ROM)
If i could i would give this game a 4.5 overall rating. i just felt it could have been better. firstly the game doesn't end so gracefully, even like 3 more levels would have been better to end the story also silent threat (which DOES come with this order) has very little variety w/ regard to the missions, mostly just warp in, kill hostiles, warp out.but the main camopaign is much better, spy missions, capture missions, recon etc, but i still think this one of the best games ever made. p.s. anyone know where to get freespace 2 below 70 bucks?! 2 of 3 people found the following review helpful

I have had this game since the 90's and had to replace the discs. This is one of the best space war sims ever made.
