New Elite Clone

Over on the "Retro Gamer Magazine" forum, one of the other users has posted a link referring to a game on the Xbox 360.

I don't have a 360 myself, but the initial reports from the other guys there are good so far.

From what's been said, it's not quite as open ended as the Elite / Frontier games, but seems to be along similar lines, and relatively enjoyable.

Anyway, those of you with 360s, enjoy...

Nice find - will be DLing tonight I think!

Call me a cynic, but i can't see a 360 space game having any depth. If it's a deep'un, release it on a hardcore platform - i.e. PC!

At the moment, from the looks of the page, it appears to be on the demo stage, so if it gets a full release, it may well improve on what's been done.

The game has already been released on Live and it costs 80 Micro$oft points. Look for it in the Indie Games section

Downloaded - played - not brilliant. It's trading is only in the most rudimentary of levels and the interface is naff. Won't be playing that again.

Hmm. Fancy animation, but not origional...?
I don't think I'll be playing it, based on the above comments...
Must find Elite :s
