Games like Eve online (minus the online)

I'm looking for a space sim-ish type game which isn't twitch based, anything out there, relatively new that fits the bill? Preferably not an MMO.

X3 should fit the bill, very immersive, you could lose yourself for days in it. Though very complex to start. But i highly recommend it.

Not online, but Freelancer was a very good play, with lots of mods!

On a much larger scale ..... maybe ... Sins of A Solar Empire.

Another vote for X3 here. Best of all, you can get it for £5 in some game shops so its a bargain.

X3 - has a learning curve like a brickwall but when you smash that down the game is amazing. You will find days just drift by

X3 I would have to say, although if you want a RTS, you may want to try Sins of a Solar Empire.

X3! Do it!

I have a battle group of an M1 Carrier, with a full complement of Nova's, 2 M2 Destroyers, 6 M6's, and squadron of recon ships! All wreaking havoc in a nearby system!

So X3 has both a first person and RTS element? And you can control larger ships?

X3 is the big one, must install my copy ox X2 again as im half way through, but not had the time to sit on it all day, takes hours to get anywhere, not sure on X3, i think u can jump straight to the action if u wanted to.

If u want a blast shooter, i recomend FREESPACE 1 AND 2
