FreeSpace 2 demo for Windows

User Reviews

• A taste of the best (Space fighter) game of all time!!

  0ROBUROSApril 8, 2011

  Pros

  Graphics still hold up to this day. The Plot is filled with lots of turns and twist. Getting your wingmen killed to say your own hide, or a mission directive, andif your really good you get to fly the fast bird (more on that later)

  Cons

  Keyboard controls take a bit getting used to, but once u have them you have them. Stupid wingmen doing EXACTLY what u tell them to do (form ON my wing not IN it). NO NETWORK multi-player SUPPORT !!

  Summary

  The space sim, a forgotten and oft misunderstood Genre, this game gives you a taste of the best that ever was (and will be? Descent Freespace 3 anyone?). just the few missions in this demo will give you more than a feel for the choices that must be made the enemies that must be killed and the needles that must be threaded. A vast improvement over the first (and i still have it installed and play it often thanks to GOG dot com, and while your at it if you want to play the rest of the levels and really get a feel go there and buy this game. For $5.99 USD it will be the best money you have ever spent. for a 12 year old game it still gets looks when i play it on the train... on the netbook (yea thats right) and forget what the specs say, it will run on Win 7, Vista and XP. Some say a joystick (sidewinder) is the way to go with this one.. but trust me an oversized trackball or simple mouse is the way to go, it even works on the trackpad. To close, this is an amazing game; before playing this, I never was all that into flight-simulators, or even flight combat games. After playing this, I fell in love with it. This is a game you need to own, especially at the price of 6 BUCKS!! If you haven't already done so, scroll over to gog.com and buy it . Do it. This is a classic game that does almost everything right, and deserves to be played. think im gonna go play it right now, and thats words from the soul.

• By far, the best game of it's time.

  Pros

  Very fun gameplay and interesting storyline. You won't get it as well unless you've played Freespace 1. The best game EVER. I still play it, over and over.

  Cons

  None at all.

  Summary

  Works flawlessly on Windows XP, unlike other games made for 98 and NT. They really should make a Freespace 3 =)
