No Space Combat Rival
I grew up an avid, AVID fan of the Wing Commander series for just about every reason you could think of. Then I played the first Freespace game. Wow. I was blown away. I still liked Wing Commander, but for different reasons, but Freespace was amazing, for the same reasons other reviews have mentioned. Then Freespace 2 came out. It would take a lot to top the first one, with its incredible story and epic battle sequences. Well, it did just that, except for maybe the story (more on that later). FS2 was just jaw-dropping. After I had installed it form GoG YEARS later, I was actually STILL impressed with the graphics, the immersive feeling this game gives of space, the sounds, and just about everything else. This is truly a timeless game. Now about the storyline: *SPOILERS* I really felt like this game was part two of a trilogy, and they never made a third. It ends on a pretty depressing note. At first I thought I had messed something up with earlier missions, but no: It really does end with a bunch of ships being wiped out...and the story ends. It *definitely* feels like they intended a part three. *END SPOILERS* But all of this in NO way would contribute to me lowering this game from the highest rating. Everything else is almost flawless. The bottom line: If you have never played a game from the space combat genre (an unfortunately dying/dead genre), but are worried of wasting your time, play this. If you hate this, then I couldn't think of one that you'd like.
