Status: offline 		Hi everyone,
I haven't posted here for quite a while, but this is still one of my favourite places on the internet. That's why I thought it would be a good idea to ask you about my little dilemma.
I'd like to start playing Space Rangers, sine everybody says it's such a great space game, but I don't know which version is the best. I've seen reviewers stating both that Space Rangers 2: Dominators is better than Reloaded and vice versa. I'd like to know what you think about this subject.
Thanks.

Space Rangers HD

quote:

Space Rangers HD: A War Apart features all of the content of the original game and Reboot, plus a way to play from the pirates point of view. It also includes new ship upgrades, adventures, planetary and hyperspace battles, and updated HD graphics along with a refined interface.


So I'm just waiting for that before I jump in headfirst. ;)

Status: offline 		Yes Rogerbacon50, it eventually was....

....and for the OP, Space Rangers 2: Dominators is my choice. Although the side quest
narratives were poorly translated from Russian to English. But I still think the game is
fantastic.

EDIT: I remember now what I particularly like about. The difficulty seems to scale. It can be challenging right up till the very end of end-game. That's VERY unusual for just about any non-FPS game.

According to the company, if this sales well we'll get to see a SR3.
