Have you gotten to Freespace 2 yet? IMO there is no equal in the space combat genre as far as having the story unfold while you're in mission (XWA is a close second, and Freelancer comes in a strong third). Also, the beam weapons, flak guns, missiles, energy weapons, and ship designs are incredibly creative and really make the universe come alive. There is nothing more awesome than making a strafing run in between two opposing cruisers trading beam fire and flak explosions, and fighting to control your ship while unloading a stream of fire from your maxim cannons and dumbfire rockets. :D
