Can you still buy Elite?
 

My brother has just bought a similar game called Freelancer or something and he reckons you can't get anymore, my other brother thinks you can. The brother that thinks you can really likes that game so maybe I could get it for his birthday hmmm.

not to sound like an idiot, but what exactly is Elite again? o.o

It was a cool space game in a absolutely massive Universe and you could just fly about doing what you want - trade, military etc. It was out on the Amiga but I'm pretty sure you could get it on the PC as well. It was just an amazing game.

It's been released as freeware nowadays :D

Cheers Hasney, I'll check that out when I get home.

Freelancer is a game that TGR used to play a lot...I thought it was rather boring.

TGR owns you Wadding :mad:

Wrong version, it must have been Elite 2 or something, Frontier? :'(

I downloaded Elite 1 and 2 ages ago. Haven't got them any more, nor can I remember where I downloaded them from.

Elite 2 wouldn't save properly, though. Kind of shitty.

Right found it on "shareware"???

Don't know anything about DOS and making stuff work in DOS when it can't because of conventional memory. Giving up :D
