freelancer is a (3rd person?) space game, where you pilot a ship, doing missions, earning cash, and upgrading your ship to fight off bigger bad guys xD

think of it like the "Air Rival's" game posted on here before, but in space. it looks very similar, but it has a single player option (I'm pretty sure there's multi-player too for those who want it, but I've never actually done it.) and an entire campaign to go with it..

how do you get it?

buy it from a game store, id suggest =D i installed it ages ago, so im not sure whether we actually had it at one point or borrowed it from a friend.
