Elite

How many of the new generation here have played this game I wonder?

I spent many a long hour back in the early 80's playing this on my Commodore 64, although versions were available for a number of platforms.

Here's the homepage of the guys who wrote it:

They also have links to emulators and the ROMs.

i've played that........ twice..... my uncle had it in his basement, and he got it out when i was a wee bit smaller, he dusted it off, and he put in the black cartridge, and it did'nt work.... after a long time of messing with it, it worked...... i only played it twice, and i was no good..... i was 3 or 4 or whatever

I've never played it, but it looks alot like Tie Fighter, which used to pwn.
