Freespace 2 for Windows

Pros: cool technology
Cons: addictive

I purchased this game because my friend who loves simulation games told me that this was the coolest game he ever played.
I trusted him so I bought not knowing what to do but after several hours I have gotten so interested in this game I play for...

Pros: Amazing graphics. engaging storyline. unbelievable gameplay. best game ever!
Cons: no graphic engine improvement from original.

This is the ultimate in deep space dog-fighting. the game's story draws you in to the action almost immediately and then it starts changing on you during play. objectives get reassigned new ones are introduced, sometimes they even become contradictory....

Pros: Incredible design, graphics and storyline.
Cons: You'll miss way too much sleep.

Speaking as someone who has never had much interest in space sims or even fighter sims, I can honestly say that I have never been drawn into a gaming universe the way I was with Volition's FreeSpace 2.

In fact, the game is so good that it's...

Pros: Excellent story, graphics, and varity of missions
Cons: Um... System requirments can be a tad steep, but that's hardly a complaint.

When the original Descent: Freespace came out, some people had their doubts--This was a brand new territory for Interplay, and a lot of times first steps can prove to be bad ones. But, with impressive visuals and an excellent game design, the first...

Pros: Graphics, engine, gameplay
Cons: Crash bugs.

The last installment of Descent: Freespace had you going and destroying a huge battle cruiser with an ancient weapon while you were in subspace. This victory ended "The Great War" against the Shivans and led to an era of peace through the...

Pros: Unbelievable graphics, realistic sound effects, hours upon hours of fun.
Cons: Heavy on computer resources.

I am a big fan of flight simulation games, especially those in which you get to shoot other planes down. So I tried Star Wars Rogue Squadron and other weak flight simulation games, but none of them really amazed me enough to say "WoW." But one day I...

Pros: Everything.....
Cons: ....except multi-player.

Volition dam well knew it was a bad idea to mess with a good thing. In fact, it was beyong good, it was sacred. Descent: Freespace was such a kick a$$ game that when I was done with it, I just kind of sulked back into and heaved a sigh that indicated...

Pros: It was created, distributed and reviewed by me.
Cons: If there were some, they'd be here. But since there's none....

Star Wars, Star Trek, Allegiance, Wing Commander, Titan A.E. and Apollo 13 can all move the hell over. The FreeSpace Universe is now the current "Sci-Fi Everything" champion of the world. If a grade of 20 out of 5 were possible, I'd give it to...

Pros: Excellent storyline, top notch action, easy learning curve, BEAUTIFUL GRAPHICS!!
Cons: Lackluster ending, needs high end hardware.

Freespace 2 is one of those games that any fan of the space combat genre MUST HAVE! It is THAT GOOD! If you have owned or played any of the Colony Wars titles for the Playstation, multiply them by a factor of 100 in every department and you have...

Pros: Excellent gameplay, graphics, and sound
Cons: Poor performance on slower machines

As you may have noticed by my title, I am an extreme fan of Freespace 2. This game, based on the popular and addicting Freespace: The Great War (which I also love), is the example that all software companies should use for writing and building their...

Pros: The best squad in a great game.
Cons: Laggy Squad War actions. :)

I am a fan of the old Descent games. I found out about the first Freespace because of the name Descent: Freespace. I bought the game and was blown away. At the time I was not online. :p

My father bought Freespace 2 and got online. He then...

Pros: Graphics are awesome, ships/weapons are great.
Cons: No medals, and lack of co-op missions variety.

Interplay's Freespace 2 is the greatest space sim I have ever played. The graphics are awesome. I was totally amazed by the graphics improvement and the detail of the ships, planets, and stars in the background. I was most impressed when I play the...

Pros: Graphics, Gameplay, story line, to many to list
Cons: Good Computer, 3 cd's

This game is superb, the graphics are top notch, the storyline is something to talk about, the sounds are realistic, and the flight models are very realistic, and may become future ships for all we know...

Graphics
The fighters are very...

Pros: Freindship, loyalty, and fun
Cons: NONE

I am Vertigo of the DRN(Drunken Roughnecks), which is the second wing of four wings that the Roughnecks have in Freespace 2 Squad Wars. The Roughnecks is a group of online gamers, all over the world, that play games like Descent Freespace...

Pros: Graphics, Sound, Storyline, Controls, Movies, Interface, "Feeling"
Cons: Multiplayer, (one is one too many)

I, like many others, was drawn in by the reviews, the advertising, and mostly the demo, of FreeSpace - The Great War. It was an excellent game. Never before had I seen anything like it - it was nearly a perfect game (if there is such a thing)....
