Rating: - Aims very high, sort of delivers
This game is most similar to some of the massive online games I've played. Alot of your time in the game is spent in transit to various systems, or just waiting for your transports to move around. (Definitely set the SETA time compression to 10X!) This is the kind of game you want an entire summer to do nothing but play, and might want to pull up a T.V. and throw on a movie while you are waiting for stuff to happen. Once you explore all of the systems and realize there isn't a whole lot of difference ... Read More
Rating:  - Year round gaming
This is a very very good looking space simulation. O man, my mouth dropped. The last good simulation I played was Wing Commander 3. Flying through Nebulas with the cockpit view made me feel like I was there. The cutscenes however could use some work (needs a good artistic touch with textures - they were off color).
This is a long long game period. The parts I played were fun. However, I didn't quite get what I am supposed to do at certain points. For example, Argon One... what the hell was ... Read More
Rating: - This is a pure SPACE SIMULATOR and ECONOMY game.
And this game sure delivers on that! The character animation is horrible and the story/plot line of the game takes only a few hours to complete.

Also don't play this game if you are looking for an awesome battle soundtrack (use you own music for that... rob zombie music makes the battles awesome!). I love the game because it has an option called ... Read More
Rating:  - Sail On Software - Dishonest Company
We ordered a DVD through Amazon via Sail On. They sent us a used DVD (no packaging), which did not work. After stringing us along, we returned the DVD and were promised a replacement or refund. Needless to say, they have avoided our e-mails since. I would recommend NOT dealing with Sail On Software.
Rating: - A game that lasts
I have been playing X2-the Threat for about a year, and I have not gotten board yet! There is a lot of stuff to do. And then there is some more.
You can own more than one ship at a time. A lot of them. You can own stations and factories. A lot of them. You can own battleships. If you can pay for them.
If you get tired of running the details you can automate them.
In most games things only run when you are there. The places you are not are frozen. But in X2 everything ... Read More
