- ~STRIKE COMMANDER
-
- This is an average flight sim with nice graphics and sound. This
- game is in the traditional origin style, i.e. you can talk to
- everybody on base and move around freely. This game has great
- missions, plenty to keep you occupied for some time, especially if
- you are a flight sim buff.
-
- That's all there is to say about this game, its just an average
- flight sim with lush graphics and sound, I still prefer TFX and
- STUNT ISLAND through.
-
- All together this game scores 7/10.
-
-
- ~PRIVATEER
-
- I didn't like this game at first, but after I read the manual I
- started playing the game a lot, in fact this game has grown on me.
-
- You are a privateer or space trader, and are given the choice of many
- missions, legal and illegal, which can lead down different roads,
- i.e. one of the illegal missions has you blamed for a murder of
- someone, while left with a strange alien artifact.
-
- This game is very fun to play once you get into it, and is a must for
- wing commander buffs out there, as there is still a lot of space
- confrontations, especially later on when you have to fight 1 or 2 new
- KILRATHI space ships (shown in intro.), very hard, even with the best
- ship.
-
- Altogether this game scores 9/10.
-
-
- To sum it all up the whole package scores 9/10 as it is value for
- money.
-
- Please note strike commander kept crashing on my system (486DX2
- 66MHZ, 4MB RAM), although it worked perfectly on my two mates
- computers, who have the same processor as me but 8MB of RAM.
-
- It might just be my computer, as it has been playing up recently,
- however you have been warned.
