    I can't help you with the current ones.  But I can list a few "simulator" type space games that might be worth watching out for in the future:

    Infinity:  http://www.fl-tw.com/Infinity/  

    For ship models check out this page:  http://www.fl-tw.com/InfinityForums/viewtopic.php?t=3391 )

    FireflyMMO:  www.fireflymmo.com

    Based on the great TV series that was axed.  Still in very early stages

    Jumpgate Evolution:  http://www.jumpgateevolution.com/

    The forums for JE are here:  http://joystickrequired.com/forums/f101/

    Final note, the next "chapter" for SWG gives a fair amount of love to the whole space side of the game.

    well if u only play in space then i suggest SWG.  its pretty fun (best of all its a fps space combat system (only one around i think)).  but be weary of the ground...its pretty bad

    MMO wish list:

    -Changeable worlds
    -Solid non level based game
    -Sharks with lasers attached to their heads

    My recommendation is Vendetta Online. Its very different than other space based games like EVE but it is based in space. Its twitch based so you control your ships movements firing and can strafe dive duck roll and etc. There is an 8 hour game time trial that can really give you a feel of the game. No credit card required.

    oooo vendetta online, havent heard that game mentioned in quite a while. imo that games not worth playing ever since it went gold and they made the universe way too big......still the old days with SAW were some of my best gaming experience. well i guess its worth a try if u want a space game.

     

    id recommend a 2d space game like Star Sonata or something along those lines, just because 3d space mmos are rare and usually have major flaws.

    Don't forget there is an original Jumpgate as well.  Very Twitched based.  I personally have played with a joystick, it really gets you more into it.   There may be a low pop online at the wee hours of the night, but during prime time there normally is always someone to find to do stuff with if teamwork is a goal, or just go into another races space and flip a beacon, you will attract plenty of attention :).  Other then that, I'm afraid there isn't much out yet.

    SWG has seen a rise in population numbers over the last few months due to some appealing updates - especially Chapter 7 which introduced some refreshing new content to the game. 

    Space is likely to become more appealing very soon with the next update being focused almost completely on the Space part of the game with new ships, Collections and even instances (this hasn't been confirmed by the Devs other then that there will be new instances with the update.  If so, it'll be a first for the space part of the game tho).
