    Description

    Ready to don your space-suit and experience the adventure of a lifetime? DarkStar One - Broken Alliance is your chance to do just that, as it combines fast and furious in-the-cockpit starship combat with a deep storyline involving love, family, betrayal and mysterious alien races spread across a vast and dangerous solar system.

    Play as Kayron Jarvis, a young and ambitious space faring adventurer as he attempts to unravel a family mystery, braving the depths of space, encounters strange alien cultures and blasts his enemies to dust in his uniquely customisable ship - the DarkStar One.

    DarkStar One: Broken Alliance sees players exploring the vast reaches of space, encountering, battling and trading with six mysterious alien races in a quest to unravel the mysterious death of the protagonist¿s father. Players can create their own career paths - be it brigand, mercenary, privateer, merchant or whatever mix they please, while buying (or capturing) alien technology to customise their highly adaptable ship, the DarkStar One, with hundreds of possible combinations of weapons, shields, armour and components.

    Features:

    • Enjoy an open-ended storyline that allows players to choose their path to fortune and glory - play as a privateer, mercenary, smuggler, trader or any combination of these - tweaking your ship's capabilities and tactics to best suit your style of play.
    • Fully customise your ship with weapons, engines, shields and over 200 distinct components. Purchase the parts you need, or capture them from enemy ships. Turn the DarkStar One into a heavily armed freighter, fast attack boat, cruiser or whatever you like, all based on a massive variety of customisation options.
    • Explore a universe comprised of more than 330 solar systems populated by six distinct alien races, each with their own technology, architecture and space combat tactics. Befriend aliens and trade with them for new equipment, or gun them down and take their technology - the choice is yours.
    • A stunning full 1080p HD-powered 3D graphics engine, an intuitive user interface, more than 40 minutes of cut scene storytelling, and over 90 minutes of Dolby 5.1 channel surround sound music immerse the player in thrilling space combat and unpredictable encounters with alien races and exotic worlds.
    • An innovative hybrid gameplay style effortlessly moves the player between story-driven adventure gaming and fierce space battles in full 3D, while a richly developed trading and customisation system seamlessly links the two modes of play.

    DarkStar One: Broken Alliance

    In the beginning, I was very perplexed about this title, but since buying it, I haven't been disappointed. DarkStar One: Broken Alliance is very cool, and reminds me of the old Wing Commander or Tie Fighter games, but of a higher quality. In DarkStar One: Broken Alliance, you can dogfight other star-fighters, mine some asteroids, and sell the stuff to the star-base, and even do some smuggling... It's a very fun game to play! I love it, and highly recommend it.

    Alright.

    This game is good with large amounts of space to fight through and the best combat for a space game on the xbox. However it is let down by slightly below average graphics and poor voice acting.

    A must buy! Great Price!

    Darkstar One Broken Allience is perhaps one of the best free roaming space shooter/sim games I've played on any console format, (short of Colony Wars). It has crisp, easy on the eye HD visuals, pick up and play controls, nice sound and ambient effects and I must admit, addictive gameplay. Darkstar One has a light economy system you can explore, and huge reactive star systems to do it in. Smuggling or trading goods between systems to boost their wealth increases pirate attacks, and police presence. Bounty hunting reaps weapon rewards and ship upgrades, or just cash to spend on goods to trade or however you like. Or you can just shoot everything and decide what to do after! As well as with each star system, another visually impressive feature is that with each time you level up your ship, it's appearence 'morphs'. Wings extend and curve, engines get bigger and change shape and the amount of weapons you can bolt on can increase! I really like having a mixture of turret types with four nice laser cannons! I could go on, but needless to say, if you like sci-fi, rumbling engines of huge gunships, and the freedom of gameplay to enjoy it in, you really should get this!

    A STEAL!

    This is a classic game that I was not expecting to be much good... and for that price you would be mental to pass it up. Really cool game, great story, addictive as hell. A+
