Quotes:

Logan: Next time you pass by and drop in, keep passing by until you get to the river... and then drop in.

This simulator video game beats all the others

Tachyon: The Fringe I think is the best the simulator game of all time. The plot of the video game is that you play the experienced fighter pilot named Jake Logan (voice by Bruce Campbell). Suddenly when a medical facility is blown up you are the unlucky person who gets blamed for it. You are then exiled to the Fringe of Colonized Space where all the criminals and low lives are. You are then given to choice to either side with Galspan (almost like the big business of the future) or Bora (the rebels who seek and freedom from the big corporations.) This game got me hooked from the start. There is danger everywhere and you must defeat it. One of the best parts in playing the game is when you go into a gladitorial like fight but it is with ships shooting each other to death. This game is fun and has a storyline and even if you don't like space simulators, you'll still like it. Trust me, I did.
