  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Is a genuinely fun game. Yes, it is a bit repetative, the random missions are cookie-cutter and the SP game is fairly short (approx 20 hours)...but I've enjoyed every minute.

The graphics are quite decent (not great), the universe is huge, there are tons of 'secrets', plenty of ships/parts, a fair amount of faction freedom, nice voice acting and a great story.

I have a feeling where the game will really shine is multiplay...I've stayed away because my copy isn't quite legit...but with the simple twitch gameplay and large mod community, I imagine Freelancer will have lasting appeal.

Not a classic, but it will definately be on people's yearly top 10 list.
