it's a really good game but it still looks like crap, they should rasie the budget on the next release and give us something nicer to look at
-
No space game has ever come close to matching the scope and sheer epic size of this. Right from the minute the very first chords of the main theme rang out on my Soundblaster 16 sound card, I knew I was looking at something simply huge.
There aren't words, there really aren't to describe how awe inspiring this game was, and still is. A rare game, in a rare series of games (all three were brilliant), that will stand the test of time and will go down in history as a true classic!

as buggy as this was, I still played the crap out of it. there still hasn't been anything like it since.

men that was a nice game,played it alot and loved it,to bad there isnt any other (newer) out there

I liked how real that game universe was. Real stars , real newtonian physics. It could have been the coolest game ever if it wasn't that buggy. What a pity!

Nice music ;)

Cause they "moved on", Creators get bored of the same thing even though we dont (:D). Like after this game Chris Sawyer and David Braben went to make the eaqually fenomenal series called Roller Coaster Tycoon, I doubt a 4th will be made.

@PlankKydo but none of them feel like being in space, more like a small square box with a bitmap planet in the background and a stupid nebula wallpaper. The Elite series is all about scope and freedom. With huge 3D worlds that you can land on seamlessly. And newtonian physics :-)
What's good about a spacegame that looks nice with smooth controls in a box shaped arcade environment? Doesn't feel like space at all. Elite FTW! BTW, without wanting to hijack this vid, check out Pioneer FFE remake.

One of the best games ever! A legend! A classic! Superb! Why oh why is there no Elite IV? :-(

@PlankKydo There has been no space game like the Elite's. Freelancer was a joke, and the X-Series is a building simulator more than an all arounder like the Elite games.
