Ok, I quess it was bit hard

echinococcus actually guessed in right direction as the game and Descend : Freespace were released same year (I did not know it at the time, I tought both freespaces were released this millenia

has it really been a decade since then? Maybe I'm getting senile in my 30's

).
So here it is. The game is
Xenocrazy, Developed by Simis Limited and published by Interplay Productions, Inc. in 1998 for both Windows and Playstation.
Maybe I'm was not quite honest rating this game at the bottom of space sims. The thing is that this is one of few games I bought I never finished. For one, no matter what missions I took or how I well I did them, one of planets ended up breaking off the alliance by the time allien invasion began (power lose for other factions was always greater than gain for faction I did a mission, and there were always at least 3 missions needing my attemption (as seen in situation report screenshots)). Game was also plagued with bugs and crashed quite often and the patch that came for it never worked. But then again, maybe I did not play it right as I was supposed to be peace keeper of sorts but I always slaughtered all hostiles in all missions (like I'm supposed to in any other space sim).
But anyway, its open floor time.
(I'll be removing the screenshots from my site sometimes later to conserve space and modifying the posts to point moby games entry where they are also available. Does that cause porblems?)
