STILL the best... Sep 21, 2002 This game, after so many years, remains the finest space combat shooter on any console. It's depth and variety rival even the PC greats. The branching story and hours of background material provide more of an experience rather than a console game. The cutscenes and voice acting are excellent, and the pace is just right! For those who have never played this wonderful game, I highly recommend it!

The best space-combat game for playstation Mar 04, 2004
By Strategos
"The Guardian of Time"
For while, it seemed like Psygnosis was unstoppable. Fresh off of the success of the awesome Wipeout games came this, one of the great console games of all time.For starters, in the presentation and production values department this game is just plain awesome. Not ONLY does it feature some of the best graphics ever to be found on playstation, not ONLY does it feature a branching story and changes based on your successes or failures, and not ONLY does it feature some of the best menus, menu sounds, music, and in-game cinemas to be found in any game for any system ever... it also features a built-in encyclopedia of all the star systems, planets, and ships in the game complete with voice-narration! This game offers great challenge, great gameplay, flawless presentation, tight controls, and a great storyline. The music is so good I wish there were a soundtrack. This game is everything a great game shoud be, and fans of classic games owe it to themselves to buy this one A.S.A.P., especially if they like space-combat games.

Great game, greater plot May 12, 2000 This game involves a lot of depth. The story is interwoven though mission briefings, in-game action and all sorts of background found on the games "database." The game tells the story of violent civil war between an evil Colonial Empire and the League of Free Worlds. The story is amazing with insight into what may very well happen if we continue to abuse our natural resources. The game itself is just as good as the plot if not better. On a closing note, remember that the story allows you to fail missions and even loose the war! There are SIX ENDINGS!

Great May 11, 2000 This game is great! The graphics, sound, and plot are amazing. The complaints are completely unfounded, because anyone who can learn to play any game can learn to play this one. The game is even presented in Dolby Pro Logic surround! This game is well worth the price, and so are the other two.

Wicked awesome! Apr 11, 2002 I'm a 12 year old gamer from Ashland, Ky, and I liked playing this game. I never really got into any other flight - sims but I LOVE reading (and writing) Scifi. I totally recommend this to anyone who likes star wars or star trek. I'm a slow gamer, and I am going to buy the game sometime, but I've rented it. From what I've seen, It's wicked awesome!
