I always find myself returning to FreeSpace because if you don't feel like playing a mission someone else writes the rules for, you have the option of basically writing your own. There are tons of freedoms, and while it might not be "state of the art" gameplay...so what? Not everything has to be state of the art; we're allowed to just have some fun. Freespace really is fun, easy to deal with (VERY user friendly as far as I'm concerned) and the graphics are just fine for killing some time cruising around outerspace on various missions. (With the lights off around me at night, headphones on, the graphics are terrific. Some of the newer, more "high tech" games are great, but there are sometimes TOO MANY commands to deal with and learn, and for a person who likes to turn the lights off and pretend he's commandeering a rocket ship, it can be a pain in the rear to keep track of what every different keyboard stroke does). So...there ya have it. Freespace is alot a fun, and you can write your own missions.Read full review
This is a fantastic game. Given the time it came out, its graphics and effects are outstanding. The story also keeps players engaged and filled with suspense and anticiption of the Shivan threat. The only issue this game faces is the system requirement. In short, you need Windows ME or 98 in order to experience this amazing game, and I don't believe either operationg system is popular today. I have enjoyed this game so much that I have repaired and maintained my old computer and shortly after purchasing this game I jumped in the cockpit of my favorite space fighter and engaged the enemies of the Galactic Terran Alliance.
Used to play it, great to have it again!

This is one of my favorite space flight sims. Absolutely loved this game when my friend lent it to me, I decided to buy it so I could play it whenever the heck I wanted! The graphics are amazing for their time, the gameplay is solid, the voice acting is believable and real. If you love space flight sims get this game, and experience one of the genres brightest stars.
A good PC based, joystick controlled spaceship game. This would make a good Christmas gift. Although written for Windows 95, it will run on Windows XP using the program compatibility feature of Windows.
