Years after its initial release, this game still rocks.

User Rating: 9.5 | Freespace 2 Gold PC
I am not new to the Descent world, in fact, I originally owned both Descent and Descent 2, but, unfortunately, I missed out on the Freespace portion of the series. This game was recently released on gog.com and it's worth the $6 price tag. The story is pretty simple, but that can be overlooked by the great customizable control scheme and hud display; although, I would recommend leaving the majority of the control scheme as given; it's as if the developers had most of the right controls in mind.

There are only a few flukes in this game. Obviously, since this game is old, it's not the best looking game out on the market, but it has withstood the test of time in my eyes. The single player portion of the game is pretty short; I beat it within a week, off and on between 30 to 40 minutes at a time. The last major fluke in this game is the lack of multiplayer; if you only download the game and nothing else, then the multiplayer will not work. There are some patches to get it to work, but you may have to dig around on the internet to find them.

This game is still a classic after all of these years and old-school gamers will get a kick out Freespace 2.
