Anyone ever had enough money to buy a large plasma accelerator?
And did someone already fly into a panther clipper? And will frontier dev. release a new frontier?

Frontier was utter wank. It never lived up to Elite, i hated it so much.
Play hardwar if you want some action (baby). Plus its got a warp records soundtrack, which is nice.

All wrong. Elite was cool, Frontier was awesome! I never had the feelings to be really in space before this game come. It's absolutly incredible.
Hardwar is pretty close from those two... All the music were from Warp rec. but i had a repacked warez release, so i never could finish it.

i begun playing this one on Amiga500. I Had then a A1200 wich was better for a fast game, then i switched to pc, i hunted for this masterpiece for long, and i found it again.
i'm still playing it, hehe.
Many of my songs are inspirated by this game, some of the tracks got the names of orbiters, or systems, from the game... I luv it sooooo much!

Hardwar is a bloody tough game. Completed it though, took me long enough, though. And yes, the soundtrack is great.

Well, more spandex. Did you ever watch those movies? The people all wore really odd outfits. REALLY odd.

I've played all Elite versions to death. Right now I'm waiting for Eve-Online.com to go into beta and when it's out I'll start my own travel agency website (for the game).
AAAH can't wait!!

NES Elite is the Best! David Braben agrees (the creater of Elite). It's being copied for the new Gameboy Advance version - I CAN'T wait!

This game will 0wn! Been on their boards for 1½ years now (pretty sad, I know). Those screens are ingame! The interface hasn't been revealed yet.
Originally beta was scheduled for december, but they're 2 months behind now. Large scale beta should start later, maybe april or may.
And yes, it's all about Elite online. Players can start their own corporations, deal in shares, acquire skill packs in the shape of neural implants (instead of camping for levels).
ah now I'm rambling..
