Remember that game? By far my favorite space game of all time. Cool story line. Open world. Lots of freedom. Fun to play.

So what else is out there? I have Elite but that is really just grinding for ship upgrades. Other games are fleet building games - not my thing.

I think that I know the answer: there is no good SP space game. But hoping I'm wrong. Any suggestions?

Have you tried Evochron or the X-series?

Personally i think Elite is the best one but Evochron and X are pretty good

Check out Freespace 2 and the freespace open mod.
Personally, I prefer strategy oriented space games. Star Wars Empire at War is a personal favorite.

As Raw Kryptonite suggested, Freespace Open!

Also, Independence War 2 is awesome, and X-Wing Alliance is pretty damn fun too. Look what I made it look like(with the help of an amazing modding community at xwaupgrade.net and SweetFx):



X-Wing Alliance has an amazing single player story-driven campaign, whereas Independence War 2 does as well--but is closer to Privateer.
