SamuraiGaijin Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 (edited) What are some good space sims or games with space ship to ship battles? Freelancer. Have to agree ... Freelancer is definitely one of the best Space Sims in recent history. You can learn the controls in seconds, you can complete the storyline in about a week, and can continue exploring Sirius sector for months and not see everything. Combat is exciting, but the opponent AI is not exactly challenging. The storyline is entertaining, but the missions get pretty repetitive. I've played through the game no less than four times, and will probably do it again in the future. Edited July 9, 2006 by SamuraiGaijin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silpheed Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 The Wing Commander and Freespace series are simply the best of the space fighter genre. Starlancer was a pretty good game aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silpheed Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Tighter and better story, better looking ships and the missions are good fun. Freelancer is pretty much a space shooter with a thin veneer of Elite/Privateer that ends up feeling "empty" after a while. Once you find a trading "milkrun" you can make retardedly amounts of cash in a short while since Freelancers economy is static, which is a big no-no for a Elite clone.
