Freespace and Freespace 2 are games that I have been meaning to play for a long time. I was just a teenager when they were released in the last 90's and they are openly known as the best space combat simulator of all time.
I came across info on google about Freespace Open for Freespace 2 which allows for more modern effects and along with graphics mods brings these games which are almost 20(!) years old into current standards graphically. Also all cutscenes have been redone. One of the mods also allows you to play the first game this way as well. All cut scenes have been redone. See the videos below:
There also also other mods that allow you to play things other than the first 2 games.
I highly recommend this game! Click here to purchase Freespace 2 from GOG.com
Once you have purchased the game click here to head over to the online installer for Freespace open. It requires Java.
I am hoping others here are fans of the game and can post their experience with it!
