If you have fond memories of Privateer or Flreelancer, then Starpoint Gemini 2 is for you. If not, but you like traveling the universe, trading and selling (and smuggling) goods, blasting space pirates trying to steal your booty, or even mining asteroids on your downtime; then SG2 is also for you!

Controls can be interesting (a bit wonky) at times, and I read there may be some joystick issues, but mouse and keyboard are my choice anyway so I've had no issues. Presentation and graphics look great, and there are some truly amazing views around the galaxy. Combat is fun and ship styles range from giant transports, to carriers with multiple fighter wings. I've got 20+ hours in at this point and while I started the campagin, I'm having more fun just roaming around, trading and upgrading my ship.

If you've been looking for a game to scratch the space sim itch, this is a good game for it.
