An overlooked classic, this is one of the finest games ever released. The slow, methodical pacing is not for everyone but for those who can appreciate the sheer scale and complexity of the galaxy within this is THE sci-fi game.

Travel the galaxy in search of adventure, profit and MORE PROFIT!! Great eye candy game with complex and rewarding trade system. Upgrading ship also significantly affects how the game can be played; be it trader, lone fighter or mighty admiral. Carve out your empire by setting up your own space stations and fleets etc. I also love the modding community. However hard game to get used to. Took me 2 weeks to play with any kind of proficiency.

Huge. Lots of options, so much to do. You can forget about the story and build up a huge trading empire, armada of ships etc.
