If you haven't played it yet, try Battlezone (the original remake published by Activision in 1998, sequel's great too but not quite as amazing) If you're looking for something with a strong "space vibe" get it now! No other game has given me that feeling of being on a desolate planet like Battlezone has, to the extent that sometimes I had to put the game down because it just made me feel so alone and cold.
It has some of the best atmosphere ever in a game, I played it just recently and it was still giving me chills like it did originally.
The campaigns are both fantastic, and are completely different and lengthy. (and HARD, if you like challenge in your game like I do :)) Great storyline + great gameplay + great atmosphere. Many games nail one or two of those but few deliver all three like Battlezone does.
One of the few games that I'd say is pretty much perfect.
(it's aged very well too, even the graphics still look decent)
