Waltorious: Perhaps this post from Rock, Paper, Shotgun will clarify a little?

This seems to suggest that Space Rangers 2: Reboot was actually an updated and improved version of the Space Rangers we see here on GOG. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
Anyway, the review I posted earlier has the same screenshots as this GOG release so one can probably take that as a good indication of what the game is like. I'll probably be picking this one up soon.
No, no no. There are two games, Space Rangers 1 and 2. While the 2 may have been left out in earlier releases, this is indeed the original game. SR 2 is a full sequel, with all new graphics and a new storyline as well as some new features, although it follows the gameplay very, very closely in a lot of ways. http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2009/11/30/before-kings-bounty-there-was/

It's too bad that fan expansion isn't available in English. Maybe someone will translate it eventually.
EDIT: That review is mixing the two games up. The Dominators only appear in game 2, but the screenshots are clearly from game 1. Wierd.
