    A few months back I put together a list of my favorite space sims in an effort to pass the time remaining until Star Citizen's release. Well, that release is still a ways off, even though we are scheduled to get our grubby little space mitts on the dogfighting module next month. I'm in the mood to pew pew right now, though, and if you are too, here are a few more classic games to help fill the void.

    Little over a week after its predecessor came to Steam, Descent 2 is now available on Valve's digital distribution platform. You can grab Descent 2 on Windows PC for $10 right now. Descent 2 takes place directly after the events of the first 3D first-person shooter. At the outset of Descent 2, players are outfitted with an experimental warp core and blackmailed into exploring mines beyond our solar system. The sequel was initially planned as an expansion, but due to the popularity of the first game, Descent 2 was fleshed out to be a full-fledged follow-up. [Image: Interplay]
