What happened to all the good space sims??

Featured Replies

Another game I reviewed once is called Star Wolves. It's a RPG/space-sim hybrid, although not a very good one (in my opinion). Reviews have been varying though.

 

Other than those, I don't know.

 

I've been looking for Star Wolves for a long time. I found the Demo very interesting although very flawed and buggy and I was hoping the finished product would be better.

From its description on various game sites it was a very appealing game to me.

Meh.

Also it uses Starforce which makes it a "bad game" by default.

You're implying I didn't already know this :)

 

Darque, if you read the original topic, you'd notice the person was clearly looking for a space sim. You threw out some strategy suggestions. That doesn't really make any sense. They are incredibly different genres. It's like if my wife told me to pick out a comedy at the movie store and I come back with a war movie...

 

Actually, I do that all the time. Eh, carry on then.

I don't care what the thread is supposed to be about (w00t)

 

The word "space" is in the title, and thus I chose to make a comment about a space game here. :lol:

 

Quit trying to win the internet :)

 

:p

Ouch.

You cannot win at the internet, because I already did.

Dorkface is only half-right, because I'm the one who won it.

But we're both the same person.

So, now that we've established that detail, who lost the internet?

Everyone else naturally.

What kind of bothers me is that LA as far as I know never bothered to make a Freelancer / Privateer / X style game in the SW universe. Fly to all your favourite planets. Buy tons of Water on Manaan and sell it on Tatooine. Become a bounty hunter, side with the Republic / Rebel Alliance or side with the Sith / Empire. Fly different space ships depending on who's side you are. Visit your favourite planets.

But I doubt it is ever going to happen.

Master Vandar lives!

I was kind of surprised too. Everyone wants their own YT-1300 to cruise around (and mod the heck out of).

There

Al Gore. He invented it, you know.

What are some good space sims out there?

Ah, sweet memories. The game that got me into online gaming. :lol:

I always wanted to play a gmae where I could have a dog fight in space.

The only game that comes close to a space sim (I guess) that I've played is Earth and Beyond.

 

Sadly it was a MMO though.

 

A MMO killed by EA.

 

On the upside it showed me that MMO's aren't really my thing.

last good space sim we played? tie fighter series? crimson skies were fun, but not quite fulfilling. we puts it in the space sim category 'cause gravity ain't really much of a factor in crimson skies.

 

HA! Good Fun!
