X3 reunion is the closest thing to a modern elite with a real stock market system that you can manipulate the supply and demand through various methods. Including the use of piracy to reduce the supply and artificialy ramp up prices for your stolen booty.

Or you can capture and build fleets of ships fr combat or millitary, design and build your own factories and space stations, mining corporations etc.

I think a new elite game would have its work cut out, but does have a few aces like the accurate procedural universe and the ability to land on planets and not just be resigned to space.

I'd love to do an elite clone and even asked Ed if he was interested in adding some cool more modern graphics to his retro elite MP remake, but he want's to stay faithful to the earlier versions.
