Forsaken. It is an awesome game that will hopefully come to GOG eventually. It is basically a straight up Descent clone but you fly "bikes" in a post apocalyptic world. The single player is good, though it does spawn enemies behind you and such, but the multiplayer is loads of fun. There is a source port here:
http://fly.thruhere.net/#projectx Miner Wars is sort of a Descent/Freespace/MMORPG game which is coming out. I played with the alpha a bit. You could literally create your own tunnels through asteroids but could also fly around in the surrounding space as well.
There was another game called Radix: Beyond the Void released around the same time as Descent. Sort of a Descent/Doom hybrid. Didn't have full degrees of freedom as in Descent, basically your ship couldn't roll but could pitch up and down say around 40 degrees from horizontal and the ship would always be moving forward though you could go faster when desired. The maps were also planer with a few minor exceptions. Not as good as Descent, but fun nonetheless.
