Freespace 2 Review
I love this game and have played it through a number of times over the years. Not only were the graphics really good for its time, the game play was intense, the story well constructed, music was good, ships were cool, and it had real character. Everything about it was excellent.
I also really liked the mission creator and how you could set up all the ships and events to make a whole scenario. This also allowed various mods to be created including a Babylon 5 mod by some fans after Sierra canceled the B5 fighter game they were making.
It's a shame this genre of game is dead as I would love nothing more than for someone to make a similar game but set in the new Battlestar Galactica universe. Nothing whets my appetite more than thinking of how awesome it would be to launch from BG75 and partake in the missions seen throughout the new series with all the things in the game that made FreeSpace 2 so great.
I am so longing for a game of this type to be made that I might install FreeSpace 2 again and give it a play. I'm sure it will still be good.

It's a great game; perhaps the best in the now-defunct space sim genre, but don't be ripped of by these used sellers. GOG.com (Great Old Games) has this and many more classics that will run on Vista, are DRM free, and are legal. Not a warez, or bit-torrent sight, but a publisher sanctioned one with lots of cheap, classic games.
(I am not connected to GOG, just one of their many happy customers)
One of the Best - B. Vick -
I still have this computer game to this day. This is honestly one of the best computer games I have ever played. I really loved the introduction of beam weapons in the game. The graphics are beautiful, the sound is great, and the voice acting is awesome. Highly Recommended!
