Pros: Great interface, excellent gameplay, amazing graphics Cons: Some missions are too difficult
Freespace 2 is a fun, encompassing, and robust space-combat game. The gameplay is similiar to games of the Wing Commander series, but much deeper and refined. In fact, it's probably one of the best playing 3D combat games around. And despite the fact...
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: Sweet graphics, easy controls, VERY intuitive. Cons: No real changes from the first in terms of gameplay. Tedious at times.
The first time I played Freespace 2 was in a demo which included 2 missions, one in each enviorment. I must have played the demo 20 times ove because the graphics were just amazing. Then I go out and try to find the game. No luck. I see Freespace 1,...
Pros: Good gameplay, Great graphics and sound, good plot Cons: not THAT original
Thirty-two years have passed since you destroyed the Lucifer. Back then, you tore up its reactors and made it go nova as it exited the SOL jump node, cutting off Earth from the rest of the cosmos. Thirty-two years after you sat on your heiny to bask in...
Pros: Beautiful graphics, interesting story, great voice acting and sound effect and all around interstellar fun Cons: A little lackluster in the story because of a lack of personality, FMV's a little on the poor side
When Origin first released Wing Commander, it proved a groundbreaking game, pushing the limits of the PC and bringing about a new experience in interactive entertainment.
I loved it. Finally, a sim game that didn't suffer from poor, boring...
Pros: Fantasitic Game Play, Beautiful Graphics, Terrific Sound, Just Plain Awsome Cons: Cons? What Cons?
I originally didn't think much of this game when I first bought it. I never played the first Decent: Freespace game, so I had no idea what I was really getting into with this one. I got it mainly because a few friends of mine got the game and according...
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...
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: 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...
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)....
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: 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: 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: Squad War Can be fun at times with certian missions being played. Cons: Delays in games getting started due to lack of organization, and cheap missions that give the adavantage to one team.
Descent's Freespace 2 is a over all great game. The graphics are awesome, the plot is interesting, and the ships/weapons choices are expanded much more than any other space sim I have seen. The online play could use a few more co-op missions and to...
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: Great action, good replay value, great looking weapons Cons: I did not find any
I recently bough Freespace 2. And let me tell you it was great! If you like WWII style dogfights, then this game is just for you. This game includes capital ships fighting each other with massive beam weapons that tear into hulls.-Not found in any...
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.
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: Sound, Gameplay, Graphics, basically everything. Cons: Has more lagging, some missions almost to difficult, and can get choppy during large battles.
Freespace 2 is fun, encompassing, and robust space-combat game. The gameplay is similiar to first one but much more refined. In fact, it's in my opinion one of the best playing 3D combat games around. Despite the fact that it's been a few years since...
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: New ships, Good action, Great Graphics and sounds Cons: Nebula missions and Capital ships
I'm a big fan of the original Freespace game.
So when Freespace 2 came out I bought it.
The graphics are great and the action is good.
The ships take a little getting used to.
I've found that I don't like it as well as
Freespace....
Pros: great graphics and sounds effects Cons: this game left me with no time for school
When I bought my new Dell Dimension computer, I was expecting to be able to play demanding 3D games. With the system came 6 games, one of
them Freespace 2. I admit it, at the time I wasn't into computer games. I
only knew of the King's...
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: Excellent unique mission designs Cons: Not a view change
For many years I have been a huge fan of any space flight sim that could challenge the supremacy of the Wing Commander or X-Wing/TIE Fighter series. Unfortunately, there have been very few that can even come close to those heights. However, Freespace 2...
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...
Freespace has got to be the best game I have ever played. To play it is such a wonderful experience that I was nearly in tears of joy after the first mission. Freespace 2 tell a story as good as any Final Fantasy game. It is just so incredibly immersive....
Hello, my name is TCA-Lonestar of The Confederate Alliance in Freespace 2. The main reason i purchased this game was due to it's online play, and great graphics. When I read on the box there were squadwars, I was sold.
Freespace is a single-player campaign with over 30 missions and new scenarios. You can fly with computer-controlled squadrons which are actually good and helps you; pilot advanced stealth fighters, and "painting" targets with TAG (Target...
Pros: Intriguing storyline, awesome sound effects, good A.I. and challenging gameplay. Cons: Some of its multiple subplots are left unresolved, disappointing ending.
There are so many reasons why you should buy Freespace 2, an underrated game which has garnered awards and critical acclaim by PC critics and gamers from all over the globe. First of all, you can play more than just one type of starfighter, along ...
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: Super sexy graphics and rich sound. Great storyline and very entertaining. Cons: Missions take long to load if you have a mashine with recommened specs.
Freespace 2 is in a world of its own when it comes to excitement in video games. The most enlightening aspect of the game other than the sweet graphics, sound, and controls are the voice overs done during the combat sequences. Its great to be given...
Pros: The graphics and sound are absolutely amazing! Cons: No story line what-so-ever.
This is a horrible sequel to Freespace. There is no action, and as the story progresses, you are sent on one bombing mission after another. In addition, what story there is in quite bland and cookie cutter. The game is indeed a visual delight,...
Pros: Good Game. Get if your system will run it. Cons: Some missions too hard. AI needs some work.
I loved this game- most of the 2 months that it took me to get through it.
The only downside is that the friendly AI is weak- extremely weak. Also some of the missions are extremely difficult even on the 'very easy' difficulty.
This is...
Pros: Great graphics, great game play. Cons: Short game, expensive.
When I got my new computer, it came with a demo of FreeSpace 2. It was the best space game I had ever played, with great graphics and sound. I went to a store to get a price check, it was reasonable. I go home, install the game (Wow, three CDs! That...
