Space flight games

glyphic:
I used to love space-based flying games. Limitless flying and ridiculous ships battling all over the cold expanses. Are there any recent games that pull it off decently that aren't MMOs?

I generally only play on XBOX360, but I have a decent PC setup (top of the line five years ago. SIGH)

evilbobthebob:
The X series is pretty good for fighting in space. It also has a strong trade element and a really open universe. The latest is X3: Terran Conflict and it's quite a good price on Steam at the moment I think. It plays quite well on my older desktop, which is probably a similar spec to your PC.

I played the hell out of Freelancer, but I understand it wasn't really everybody's thing.

LTK:
When I was a kid I played a lot of Freespace, I had loads of fun with that game. You can get the first and second Freespace games on gog.com for a fair price, which at gog.com means barely anything. I'm planning on buying it again some day.

You might also be interested in the fact that the Escapist's Yahtzee also used to love space dogfight games, and has set out to create one. You can read about some of his progress.

Scandanavian War Machine:
There's this game called Shattered Horizon that I always thought looked really cool.

It's not a spaceship flight game, but it's played in space with thruster-equipped spacesuits. I've always wanted to check it out but my computer can't handle it so I've never bothered.

Probably not exactly what you're looking for, but it's worth a look anyway.
