Let’s Pwn! Freespace 2

Welcome to a new series of "Let’s Pwn! In this series we are taking on the greatest* space sim ever made and one of the greatest* games in existence.

Freespace 2 is better than the original Freespace in every single way (and that’s not putting Freespace down because it is a great game) The story is better with a lot more mystery and peril, a better soundtrack, better and more varied missions and some of the most epic space battles you will ever see.

There are 40 videos in this series consisting of all missions of Freespace 2 gold edition including cut scenes. Enjoy!

It truly is the greatest space sim ever.

Couldn't agree more. It's extremely disappointing that a 3rd game wasnt made, a crime against gaming!

Video Game Music Spotlight #11: Horror and Solitude

VGChartz's Taneli Palola: "The fall period has begun and sunlight is becoming increasingly scarce, especially here in the north where I happen to live. With daylight hours quickly withering away as winter approaches, I thought we should take some time to listen to some seasonally-fitting creepy and dark themes from the world of video games. Of course, Halloween is also right around the corner, so it works quite nicely for that as well.

Space Combat has Star Citizen on the horizon.

Platform games need actual platforming. Infamous and AC series are not platformers, and the average 3D platformer requires no skill these days. If Nintendo wants me to buy a Wii U, they should make Mario difficult again.

FPS Adventure thrives in low budget European titles. They're all over Steam and Gamersgate.

The text adventure's most recent quality release was called Cypher. It was pretty excellent despite some rough edges.
