GameSpot and GameSpy both have previews of Elemental Games' Space Rangers 2. Here's a snip from the first:Space Rangers 2 randomly generates a galaxy each time you start a new game, so you'll never have the same game twice. After you create a character by choosing a race and a profession (there are five races and five professions, such as merchant and pirate), you're dropped into your starship and what's next is entirely up to you. This galaxy is a busy and dangerous place, though, and there are all sorts of hazards floating around, from stray asteroids that can damage your ship, to pirates, hostile factions, planetary governments that you've managed to offend, to the dominators, a dread race of robots that is slowly conquering the galaxy. Your ultimate goal is to stop the dominators by locating and dealing with the three dominator command units, which are located somewhere in the galaxy. To do that, you'll need to explore uncharted space, earn enough money to buy the latest charts, and hunt them down. |
