OMG I WANT THIS GAME OMG

(except it's not a real game :( )
(it does look a lot like Frontier: Elite though, I kind of recognised the space station from a screen shot I saw bazillion years ago)

    (ignoring the depressing nature of the lat's play vid...)

    oh my goodness Frontier: Elite was simply my favorite game for the longest time <3 game in that vid looks like a modern retro version of it... whereas F:E is just ... well retro ... I think, Anyway..

    Don't know if I grew up or technology has raised my expectations, but I don't fee that sense of infinite possibility in games now days as I did when playing Frontier Elite. Maybe X2 and X3 though, those are friggin' awesome

    Oh, if Nomad X isn't a real game, what is it?

    Nomad X was a short film made as a satire to Let's Play videos... The depressing dialogue was purely fictional :)

    I hadn't actually played any Elite or Frontier or any of them personally, but I've had them burned into my memory from reading so many Amiga magazines (didn't own an amiga either lol) that I recognise it :P

    Dangerous will hopefully give me a new lease on that genre. Or any lease XD
