Deep Space

Hatred

I don't need to play for very long to review a thumbs up. I am not going to argue against the negative reviews as they as not entirely false but for it's low price, Deep Space is a good purchase. It has simple mechanics you will see in most video games, yet everything is down to the basics, like a videogame 101 first session. The ennemies are not particularily dangerous UNLESS you fail to remeber the basic rules of FPS and Dogfighting videogames. FPS uses corners, maintain distance, try to see if there is a gap to jump everytime the floor has odd angles... Dogfighting needs strafing, managing speed to be able to tail a target, aim for predictive crosshair, account for passive energy for weapons/engines. It's all there, packed in 1 user friendly handbook. Once you figure out the mechanics the game doesn't offer much content because whatever gamer twirks you adopt to clear levels doesn't make for a "fun zone", so there is no point but there was updates with more content so I have a good feeling! This would be a great game to introduce kids to competitive gaming.
