Title: Eve Trinity looks beautiful

Check out the trailer. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Al1Od48iK5Q&feature=related) I'm really damn curious now.

Edit: I'm gonna make use of the trial they have... I know, I am weak.

I've gotta' say, Eve Online has always looked really interesting to me.  There are a variety of reasons I haven't bothered to try it, but it continues to look really great just from the plain visual standpoint.  Some of the gameplay concepts seemed interesting too, but it's just been one of those things where it's too big a hurdle for me to jump.  Would be easier if someone I knew played it, though.  Heh.  Let us know what you think if you try it out!

Eve is kinda cool, but it is very interface heavy. Lots of windows and charts and stuff.

At least they fixed the issue (http://www.bluesnews.com/cgi-bin/board.pl?action=postmessage&boardid=1&id=0&threadid=83282) which basically murdered your Windows XP Boot.INI file. (http://kotaku.com/gaming/lethal-update/eve-online-trinity-update-kills-xp-330805.php)

Yeah, I was reading about what EVE players call "The Heist" the other day and thought the game sounded pretty cool. 


But back to topics that actually matter:  Who here still has Freelancer?

Great game -- it's like Morrowind in space.

I would think the X series is more like Morrowind in space.

Even more so than Freelancer, yes.

Eve was a fun game to play when i first got into it.  The only issue that bothered me was the idea that you can't get out of the ship and walk around.  I've actually been reading about the star trek MMO thats in the works.  It has a nice look to it.

Supposedly a future update to Eve will allow you to get out of your ship and walk around in stations. I remember reading that a while back.
