What's up.
Thought I'd better sign up since this seems to be the place for big exhaustive lists of good space games. <img src=' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//icon_e_biggrin.gi f' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />
I'm an Orbiter veteran, also played a lot of Black Prophecy during the closed beta, played a bit of Takiodom too, long before the G1 acquisition (back when everything was still localized to Brazil lol).
Right now I'm playing Oolite pretty hardcore, I never played the original Elite (hey, I bet I'm a lot younger than YOU) but I was always aware of it's legendary acclaim but if I'm honest, while I can tolerate primitive graphics, wireframe is just a bit too dated for my generation X brain.
But I love rag-tag vagabond space trading and fighting.
So Oolite is like the perfect game.
Only been playing a few weeks too, but I think I'm in for the long haul, I want that Elite Status.
Anyway yeah, that's me, good to be here, peace and love and all that jazz. <img src=' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//icon_e_smile.gi f' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

Hi superbatprime
Welcome to the SSC and yes Oolite is a great game <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//girl_crazy.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
Welcome to the forums Superbatprime.
I still like to play Elite on the Amstard emulator every now and again, just for the memories. <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//biggrin.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

You should try Oolite in wireframe mode - it's rather strange, but fun!
