www.escape-velocity.com There are several picture links, so you need to click the little space ship one at the bottom to the left.

Really its the best game ever. It appears to be shareware, but i havent been promted to purchase it yet so i dunno...Anyway, its really fun because you trade and buy new ships and weapons and stuff. You can do missions, mine asteroids or just fly around blowing stuff up.

There was this one really old game that sounds very similar... It was ship in the center of the screen like asteroids, and you flew around talking to peeps, trading and shooting stuff, going on mission, almost like a minature RPG. Loved that, heh.

Yeah thats basically what this is...It has a little story that reminded me of a game called X-Beyond the Frontier. Its different but does have its similarities.

Ok. So far..so fun... but I ran into one problem.

I'm stranded. My ship doesn't have the energy to make the last jump I need to get to a planet. What do I do?

EDIT: Ah.. NM Finally I found a ship that actually helped me out.

Yea! That game was great but it was really repetitive and had poor graphics...

I've heard some very good things about the Escape Velocity series.

I'll tell you what i think of Nova when I've downloaded it. Which will take ages.
