I've played that game in my childhood and loved It. Unfortunately It doesn't even exist on gog.com which is shame honestly since It's a masterpiece in my opinion. I'm looking for a digital copy of this game and not boxed edition. Does someone knows where to find It?.

There are no official digital copies of the game available. You'll either have to go for a disc, or go abandonware.

Almost 25k votes, nice. Good-luck getting it here though, Microsoft is stubborn about releasing games here.

No info so far. All you can do is vote in the community wishlist (see post above) and/or contact Microsoft to express your desire for an official digital release.

You'd think with the success of the Sharknado movies and the subsequent rising stock of Ian Ziering they'd re-release it.

And on a side note, the control scheme of this game is so brilliant and apart from some horizontal shooters has never really been embraced. It's a shame. I guess people prefer having to remember 80 hotkeys and needing ten hands to properly control their ships. :P

Probably in Windows Store then.

Yes, the control scheme is very good. In fact I only need to remap one key closer to wasd (the break from Hyper jump key) since I use it a lot. I like how good mouse control is

I also like the fact that the map is basically 2d since no structures can be on top of another. It makes traveling easier to do

I too would love Freelancer to come to GOG but I'm doubtful it will, this is why I've been looking for a substitute but I haven't been having much luck. If you have any ideas for good Freelancer substitutes, I'd love to know.
