My brother in law is after a decent Space battle game for the XBOX, the type where you fly around blasting things.

Any ideas?

Cant think of many to be honest, only Bounty Hunter I can think of but that also includes some first person shooting.

Think this genre is extremely limited on consoles, in fact the only things I can think of right now is X3 which isnt even out yet, Battlestar Galactica which is pap, or Crimson Skies which isnt set in space!

X Wing Vs TIE fighter or X Wing Alliance style games would have been greaton the Xbox. Sadly there aren't any.

I used to play that over on MSN Zone back in the day. It has been a really long time since there was a decent space fighter game

I'm waiting for the LUcasarts approved lightsaber for the Wii

I know its a carp reply but if he has a pc of pretty much any description he should just get freespace 2 and have done with it. Itsthe ultimate space sim that doesnt get over complex but is still incredible to play even now.

Seriously good game.
