I have played Freelancer ever since its launch over 10 years ago. It was working fine, even in win 10 until the same time of an upgrade from windows went in (unknown) and the game never worked since. Microsoft were on a winner here, it is still commanding decent prices online but MS decided to withdraw support for the money spinner and now you can either play it on an 'older' pc or take your chances in a new model. I am due a new pc shortly, and will try again. There are large 'modification sites' online that allow you to download and install mods which completely change the game/storyline and have much better spacecraft and worse enemies!!! It still works on my laptop (also win 10) on a 'Discovery 4.87' mod. So why not on my pc is a mystery.

If theres a underrated game, that are so good that we even ask how it did pass unnoticed, this is the one. I've seen the demo and it got my attention, even that i'm not into simulators. The game is about being a pilot, that can trade in stations and planets, but it needs to protect is cargo from pirates, outcasts, etc. Theres a element of exploring the region, opening up new systems for further adventures. But players that like more action can, instead, look for other jobs (bontyhunter, escort to cargo convoys, etc). The single player history isnt very original, but its entretainning. the real thing is the multiplayer, because it allows up to 128 players to play together in a game. the only thing that really bad is that Microsoft n accordance with their 5-year support policy for software, stopped supporting the game on April 8, 2008, and shutdown their global server. the game's graphics are simply gorgeous (even for a 2003 game).The mouse-and-keyboard flight control is very easy to master. All in all I recommend this game to anyone that likes Sci-FiRead full review

This is a great collectors item. Very interesting game, great single-player campaign, addictive RPG, and an open-ended gaming world to explore, that you can still play today.
