yeah, X3 is basicaly like elite just does a lot more. It does all the things you read about in the novela that came with elite, but couldn't do in the game.
So its not just the graphics that make X3 good its the detail in the universe and how you can manipulate its systems.
In X3 you can make a career of being a bounty hunter or pirate captain, and be the scourge of the galaxy changing the markets in entire systems, setting up bases and managing fleets of ships under your command. You can also do things like script new custom things in your ship computer.
It's really an evolution of the original game, with the option of a story or start on your own freedom you got in the original. Elite.
Elite is the one game that got me into gaming in the beginning.
