More Zigs For Your Money

by MrBorisS , May 19 '00
Pros: Graphics, sound and responses more accurate that any other game
Cons: There is no changing built-in cannons.
I have been looking at some other members' opinions and they forgot to comment in something important.

Sure I agree with them more times than not:

-This game is awesome,
-The graphics and sound effects are something...

Starlancer enters the fray!

by jjbrickley , May 12 '00
Pros: multi-player, Direct 3D support
Cons: only 2 CDs of play (about 25+ missions), no Glide support (yet)
Starlancer came to the shelves on April 28 pushing other SciFi games down a notch in the purchases. I cannot compare Starlancer with Freespace as I do not own the Freespace products. But curiosity was high and that is a great reason for the initial...

Decent gameplay but....

by JamesWong , May 31 '00
Pros: Solid gameplay. Good missions.
Cons: No compelling story to keep you going.
I recently finished Starlancer and I have to say that I'm a bit disappointed. Even though the 24 missions are fun (with surprises strewn about), the storyline is pretty much forgettable. Please note that my review focuses only on the game's...

Die Alliance Scum!

by molydeus , Jul 19 '00
Pros: Good graphics, cool ships
Cons: No in missions saves
Starlancer is much like the Wing Commander series so if you like that you'll like this game.

Story

You start off the game as a rookie pilot for the 45th Volunteers. You are fighting for the Alliance against the Coalition....

Great flight sim

by Gate-SC , Aug 11 '00
Pros: almost everything
Cons: one or two bugs
What happen to flight sim games? I remember back in the good old days where red baron and descent were still popular. Lately the only thing that the gaming industries have been pushing forward are strategy and FPS(first person shooter). RPG(role-playing...

Wowey!is it easy!

by Millereli , Aug 31 '00
Pros: cool ship control / plot
Cons: short / easy
This game is great as far as graphics go and its got a cool plot. It also has neat ships, although there are a few that i never even used. The game is also to short, and i have yet to see an expansion pack. The game is sort of a remake of ww2 as far...

Starlancer, wing commander revisited

by omkarpimp , Jun 01 '00
Pros: great graffics
Cons: hard to learn
dStarLancer, a game that takes me back to the glory days of Wing Commander.

Much is the same here. The game is story-driven (though the story, which centers around the Eastern Coalition led by stereotypical Russians, is a bit ludicrous),...

Who do I send the flowers to Comrade?

by op1500 , Aug 08 '00
Pros: Graphics, Sound, Story line that holds your attention.
Cons: Cumbersome flight controls, The computer deciding that another target is better than the one your chasing.
Other than the title statement being overused in the game (makes you long for a "smack the co-pilot" button in the game) this one is great. Quick background, I'm 35 years old and I LIKE VIDEO GAMES. Ok, there I said it.
I have this one...

High intensity action

by Naughtius , Oct 04 '00
Pros: great gameplay, graphics, storyline
Cons: no save features to speak of, somewhat bad AI
I have had Starlancer now for about 3 months and had been desperately trying to make it work on my old PII 233. If I had stuck with that machine, this review might never have been written, but thanks to the new machine I purchased, I can review this...

Wing Commander XVIII? From MICROSOFT?

by murgan , Sep 28 '01
Pros: Fabulous Graphics, Immersive "experience"
Cons: Cheesy plot, stupid wingmen, repititious sound, poor mission structure.
Perhaps the most unusual thing about this game is its pedigree. This thing has more credits than a Hollywood blockbuster movie. Top billing goes to Microsoft, with Digital Anvil and Warthog getting credits, with no idea as to who does what.

Fight in the stars

by robdog7 , May 18 '00
Pros: Great design and graphics
Cons: Less than Great AI
This game STARLANCER is simply awesome. The graphics most of all. These graphics if you have a compatible 3d accelerator(mine was an ATI rage 3d pro) are phenomenal. Awesome weaponry effects like the gattling laser.The game-play is good as well it is...

Starlancer has potential

by TCA-Guardian , May 20 '00
Pros: Story continues even while fighting.
Cons: Multiplay is lacking
I am a big fan of Freespace 2, so when a new space sim arrives, I check it out. Starlancer has to be one of the best I have played in awhile. I hope the space sim type games head this way.
Starlancer keeps a story going even while you are in the...
