I feel like Im spamming up the boards tonight but this is important :p

You can download a Demo of FreeLancer, a new spacecombat game that sounds very much like Elite (never played Elite myself but people said it was the game of its day)
I -Love- space combat games but there is never anything good on the shelves, Freespace 2 ROCKED but I never got the chance to finish it :(

PCgamerUK give this game a really good review and the screenshots looked Ace.

Sorry I ment like FPS space combat, Like Xwing VS TypeWriter but Homeworld does kick Unrivaled ass!

Nothing beats chasing down a rookie Xwing pilot and nailing his Ass with seering hot plasma beams!
Pow Pow Shizzzap! SPLODE!

Star Wars: Galaxies should be good...its an rpg, but I'm pretty sure it will have space combat.

RPG's = Skilless time sinks

Its not possible to rip off E&B, Considering E&B is a sad excuse for a game
