The biggest result we'll see from SC is perhaps a minor resurgence of space-sims from the shovelware crowd, but likely not much more.
I was always amazed that space sims died the death they died.

Some of my favorite games were from that genre. I think its obvious that I was a big Wing Commander nut. I was even a fan of the sadly incomplete Prophesy (Great flight model though). The Klingon Academy game was an outright blast even though it had bad AI.

The Descent games were a lot of fun as well.

One of the best game openings ever
