	Terminus Mac review
		Terminus has found a nice approach to implementing such a game, even if some of the possibilities are left unexplored (exporting a ship from one server to another would open the game further).
		Terminus is a space combat / real-time role-playing game in which you take command of a single-seated space ship and strike out to make a living.
		Ambrosia's "Escape Velocity" is basically a well-executed 2D version of ELITE (which proves that the concept of the game is sound and doesn't require drop-dead graphics), and Origin's immensely successful "Wing Commander" series is ELITE's 3D space combat minus the trade aspect.

	Science Fiction Game Reviews
		While much of the game takes place on the ground, certain missions also require Crypto to take to his ship and burn everything in sight—including the army vehicles dispatched to the area.
		The game's writers had a field day coming up with the scenarios and the dialogue for the townspeople.
		The spaceship option is mostly just an excuse to use a ray beam from on high—as long as you keep dodging and weaving, the tanks on the ground generally don't really hurt the ship.

		The newtonian flight model in Terminus was implemented wonderfully, and apparently the "science" of space ships in the game are equipped with thrusters beefy enough to keep you in control in the frictionless environment.
		As the game starts, the player is given a low performance ship, a bucket of bolts that has horrible performance; typical for these kinds of games.
		For the first time in any of these games, I was able to experience the "plot line" of the game in a totally different perspective.

	Starscape (computer game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Most of the game time is spent in a top-down view as the player's ship fights off attackers and collects resources from asteroids and from some of the destroyed enemy vessels.
		Starscape also features a plotless skirmish mode and a difficulty level where save games are automatically updated to reflect the loss of ships.
		The Aegis is present in all non-boss battles and while it's quite durable, its destruction loses the game.

	The Old Times: Book Reviews April 2004
		But by the time Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. came along, game play had moved into the family rec room and the home computer, and the writing was on the wall for the arcades.
		Computer Space involved piloting your space ship among threatening debris.
		Games with movie, TV or rock-band tie-ins bring more money, but there is a surprisingly limited selection of these.

	STAR WARS: Executor-class Star Dreadnoughts ("Super Star Destroyers")
		The commonly reported numbers are much smaller than the capacity that would be expected for a ship of this size, (at least according to Roleplaying Game data), but they still require significant docking facilities.
		We could make lame excuses for this — Executor designed as a noncombatant staff vessel, always assumed to be under the protection of better armed destroyer escorts — but it is more reasonable and efficient to assume that the game statistics are irretrievably ill-conceived.
		Analogy with smaller warship classes suggests that a majority of the big guns (presumably turrets like those on Imperator star destroyers) may be mounted on the broad flat dorsal and ventral surfaces: with the best possible firing clearance above the hull and ample space for massive power feeding systems below the hull.

	Sheldon Brown's Frigate Computer Game
		In any game involving a long period at sea, some consideration may need be given the remaining quantity and quality of food and drink, and any problems that spoilage and lacks might cause.
		It would be a variable-rate real-time game, not based on taking turns, but with the option of "sleeping" through long passages, with instructions to "wake me when we get to (...) or if there is any change" (weather change, landfall, sail sighting, etc.) The usual "pause" and "save" options would also be available.
		This may compel or at least impel in a game scenario --- as it often did in actuality -- a ship to put in somewhere for rewatering and collection of any available foodstuffs, notably fresh vegetables, or wild pigs or goats..

		The BCM universe is huge (I think this is the first game I’ve ever seen that has the size scale of you to your ship to a space station to a planet anywhere near correct).
		Yuk. Yuk. There is a veritable universe between games like the Wing Commanders, run on the plot train, complete a mission to move on or don’t move on at all, and games like this one, almost utterly without plot or direction.
		BCM is a game that provides a framework, leaving you free to do whatever you want to do within the confines of that universe.

	Star Control
		The game featured the basic Spacewar-style combat engine, mÃªlÃ©e (as it was called due to the close combat involved, even though the ships actually fired projectile weapons at each other) as well as a strategic game engine with a three-dimensional cluster of stars as the terrain.
		Colony management was likely a result of Accolade's requests to determine the direction of the game, as it is unlikely for Legend, known for their interactive fiction, to have decided to introduce such elements into what was a deeply story-driven computer game in the first place.
		The computer AI for the mÃªlÃ©e section was severely chaotic, sometimes employing tactics that would make the battle unwinnable (by eternally flying away from the player in a faster ship, for example).

	Game Tunnel
		The game has two parts: 'outer space' and 'not outer space.' When you're not in outer space, you're on the big ship, doing research, building ships, or jumping to new 'nodes' in the new dimension.
		In a word, Starscape can be summed up as 'solid.' From the story to the physics, from the graphics to the controls, the game is solidly built.
		Many times, when there is a great game in terms of play, it lacks in sound quality, such as music.
