Freelancer is a lot of fun multiplayer. Me and my friend used to start up a LAN game and do trade missions with one of us running the freight ship and the other in a fighter. hugely intense once we started hauling illegal goods through 20 star systems having to sometimes dodge the trade lanes to avoid the security forces and end up fighting pirates and such in the nebula clouds. Great fun and very immersive stuff once you get into it. The big 64+ player games always lagged for me too much but I could see how those would be a blast as well.

I miss Earth and Beyond too... Eve didnt work for me. I dont like being stuck in a leet looking fighter ship all the time.
