Freespace 2 was a good game but not as good as Freespace.

Then what about the old tie-fighter game? One of the first games I ever tried on PC (an at the time supreme 384-33mHz).

The difference is, you can play Freespace 1 with Freespace 2, and get the nicer graphics (1024X768 beats 640X480 all the time, sundays included), while the other way around is going to be difficult.

(Freespace 2 has also received the blessing of not being translated, unlike Freespace 1, which consequently cannot support any mod and... *Digression alert goes off*)

Fallout 1 & 2, Gothic 2 and Rome total war.

Games I wish I was playing: War in the Pacific($70!) and SE5.

The Freespace 1 port to FS2 is available on Hard Light Productions (a jewel site for Freespace). The direct link to the port itself is here.

You do not need to have FS1 to play the port by the way: you merely need FS2 and a speedy connection if you want to download all the music/animations/voices (otherwise, it weights a fairly reasonable 15 mb or so).

Daggerfall, X2, Planescape Torment, HoMM3, Lords of magic, Medieval:VI, Anarchy Online, SEIV, Babylon project(Freespace2), KotoR2 and Dominions2.

What's "real life"?

Games I'm looking forward to: Tes4:Oblivion, X3, Gothic3, Dominions3, SEV, Daggerfall remake, HoMM5(if ever)and probably many other good games.

And as one guy here said; The underdogs site really is poison.

Oh, and if someone here have tried and like some/all of the games I've mentioned, and have a good tip for other games I should try, please do tell. I've found out there's always some games I've barely heard of, that turns out to be true gems. Latest one being Dominions 2, which contained lots of things I've missed in other games, though it has it's shortcomings too.
