Editorial Review: Amazon.com Product Description: A space-combat simulator with role-playing elements, Terminus is an epic story that spans hundreds of years in the future. By copying found alien technology, the United Earth League has been able to set up intrasolar colonies. But the new, prosperous age has degenerated into a struggle between the UEL, the Mars consortium, and roving bands of pirates. Terminus allows you to follow the story in single- and multiplayer modes, but also gives you the freedom to explore the solar system and do what you want to do in free mode. You can choose from a variety of career paths, including fighter pilot, mercenary, and merchant. And, perhaps best of all, the game's comprehensive ship simulation allows you to customize your craft with bought, stolen, or salvaged parts. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Oh man! Ever heard of Beta testing!?This was supposed to be a fun game. In many retrospects it is especially when your online and playing against other people! YEAH! I just love sneaking up and blowing them away. The problem unfortunately is that when I bought the game it was totally messed up. It had several problems including the fact that the video movies couldn't play right. Many errors where found. Can you say Beta testing?! Obviously not considering it was an independant game.

MOST of you people think that an RPG means that you start with a character at level 1, and through the course of the game gain levels and EXP. This is true for Terminus too, except the character gaining levels is YOU. the person you ... Read More Rating: - I've been deceived!I give this game one star; not because it's a terrible game. In fact, if you're looking for a boring space/flight sim, then this is the game for you. I give it one star because on the box it's billed as "an epic space combat rpg." Notice the "rpg" in that sentence? Guess what; this is NOT a role playing game. At least, not in any meanigful sense. I bought the game to enjoy an immersive role-playing experience, but this is just another "pick a mission, fly around shooting things up, and then come back ... Read More Rating:  - Good Concept, Mediocre ImplementationTerminus was a brilliant idea. To create a space flight simulator that relies on true Newtonian physics is intriguing; it provides a more realistic experience regarding what piloting a spaceship would actually be like. For a time, it is fascinating to rotate your ship freely without changing your velocity, and use fuel only for acceleration and decelleration. However, after playing it this way for a while, you have to ask yourself: is realism really what you want? The largest effect of ...
