Best Space Combat game out there, definitely worth the £15 i payed for it, and a fantastic story to boot!
This game boasts no glitches, hence no patches for it, its perfect, no nasty bugs or anything. The tech team for this game need medals!
The graphics are fantastic for a 2002 game with a 2003 launch. Lush planets, super high detail rings, vivid backgrounds and coronas from suns and brilliant ship designs will have your mouth dropping even compared to modern games. The lip sync with the characters is fantasic, you can really see the emotions slowing, falls just short of those boasted by HL2.
The sound is great, but here's the only flaw i've ever found with this game, the sound is stuttery or even missing when using 3D sound set on with some sound cards. Watch out for that, it hampers gameplay. note this is a rare occurnace, likely of happening to you? 1/40.
The gameplay is great, but sometimes perhaps a little repetitive with the freelance missions from Planet and Space Stations. The campaign missions are excellent however, and really keep you hooked. The gameplay isn't to hard either, and is fun to learn and improve your skills.
Best game of its type, but i feel, a little underappreciated.
