A Fun Space Shooter
User Rating: 8.5 | Freelancer PC
I just reinstalled the game after having played and completed the storyline after it was first released. The game provides an incredibly fun space shooting adventure that doesn't end with the main story line. The outer-space graphics are still impressive as I consistently get the feeling that I really am in deep space. Many of the battles are intense but not overwhelming. The opportunity to gain cash by different means (bounty hunting, exploring, trading, etc) provides much needed diversity to the game. The voice-overs of the main characters are good although the NPC voice overs get a bit repetitive from time to time. Nevertheless, I find only one annoying aspect to the game: the under developed planets. That is that there isn't alot of variety to NPC's and the places to visit within each planet and/or spacestations are underdeveloped. Just too much repetition. Nevertheless, the game will provide the gamer with a terrific overall space shooter experience. Lots and lots of zones to explore, challenging (but not overwhelming) missions, a very interesting main storyline, cool array of ships, weapons, engines, excellent graphics, etc.
