Freespace + Expansion

ilves's rating:

250

ilves says: The predecessor to Freespace 2 and a great game in its own right. Experience the terror of an unstoppable alien invasion force systematically extinguishing humanity from the universe.

ilves says: The gem of the collection. One of the best (if not the best) story-driven space fighter sims ever made.

Apache vs. Havoc

ilves's rating:

250

ilves says: Well, the title really says it all. If you're looking for realism, this and Comanche Vs Hokum are the way to go.

ilves says: Classic game known for bringing full 3-d motion to space sim combat, except in corridors and confined spaces. Battle out-of-control robot forces to stop the spread of a dangerous contagion.

IL-2 Sturmovik™: 1946

ilves's rating:

250

ilves says: Not for the faint of heart. Highly realistic physics and plane models require time and effort to master. Rewarding if you have the time.

Independence War Deluxe

ilves's rating:

250

ilves says: Thinking man's fighter sim. Full Newtonian physics and a cruiser to control. Command multiple sections including navigation, engineering, and gunnery to complete your objectives.

Independence War 2: Edge of Chaos

ilves's rating:

250

ilves says: Prettier, nastier, and in all ways superior; IWar 2 brings up the quality a notch above its predecessor. A must play for anyone interested in space combat based on realistic physics.

Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)

Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!

So, what are the ingredients?

Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?

Justify your choice... Or not!

OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.
