Amazing series. I have yet to even bother with the plot in TC or Albion Prelude's and still find myself with a couple hundred hours logged. Well worth it if you don't have it the best way to describe it is A Single Player EvE Online with Freelancer's combat
cant wait for X:Rebirth

Yeah, I bought the X Superbox a long time ago, tried to play X3 and just couldn't really get into it, it seemed to have a lot going on that I didn't want to bother with. I like space games, but Freelancer was definitely where I belong, because it was so simplistic. I might try to learn it one day.
[QUOTE=jordguitar;38616023]with the same learning curve[/QUOTE] Yeah but after you get that out of the way you've got a game that'll last you hundreds of hours, with hundreds of mods to customize it your way, too
[QUOTE=jordguitar;38616023]with the same learning curve[/QUOTE] Meh X3 hasn't that steep a learning curve, it's somewhat easier infact. Want a hard learnign curve? try playing Battlecruiser Millenium, it makes X3's learnign curve seem a piece of piss
[QUOTE=RayvenQ;38623517] Want a hard learnign curve? try playing Battlecruiser Millenium[/QUOTE] It's basically ARMA in space with [I]worse[/I] controls and AI.
[QUOTE=Saber15;38632483]It's basically ARMA in space with [I]worse[/I] controls and AI.[/QUOTE] You know, once I learned how to play Derek Smart's Desktop Commander it actually wasnt that bad of a game, but I kept going back to X3 after getting raped by cloakies.
I think X3 is a terrible buggy broken pile of pointlessly grindy crap. Worse is that it lacks any sense of scale - why play a space game with rooms the size of small towns at best? The longest range weapon is 13km and the space fighters go slower than real ones.
