    Any immersive "space" games out there?

    I'm lookin' for some really immersive sci-fi space oriented games. Looking for something very Star Wars-esque, with the different alien cultures and such rather than just taking place on earth. Free-roam is a huge plus! I have KOTOR and Mass Effect already. I also tried X3...but man, those missions take a really long time that I just haven't had yet :P


    I've never been lost behind the wheel. That's where I want to be

    Captain A: I actually used to play Galaxies a lot and loved it. I downloaded the free version of SWTOR, but haven't had the chance to get into it yet.


    sCingilli: EVE is an excellent game! I did a 14 day trial years ago with a few friends, and even with my old computer at the time it was still pretty great. If only it weren't sub based But I had forgotten about Homeworld! I saw that one again a few weeks ago (I used to really not enjoy space oriented games, but I sort of got into the mode recently :P ) and need to try it out. I also had never heard of SoaSE before. Browsing the Gamespot review, it sounds like a solid series! I'll most definitely be giving that a look!


    indianajames: EDIT: Oops, misread your post that someone had missed the game as a suggestion, not that I had missed it's playability. Dang! Maybe it WILL go open source.

    Thanks for the suggestions so far guys!

    Kerbal actually looks pretty fun :P Maybe it'll help me train up for when I take over and bring back NASA.

    "What qualifications do you have for this position?"
    "Well sir, I helped the Kerbal population breach the outer rim. I believe that more than qualifies me to send people there."

    For my annual Christmas "do nothing" break I grabbed the Mass Effect trilogy. Almost finished all 3. Great games, but I suppose you really do need to play through all 3 to "get it."

    Cool games though!
    Yep, its broken....

    Ok, yes RSI looks great. I have been to the website. It appears to be complete vaporware as a kickstarter type thing. No actual game yet.
