I played this game for more than 20 hours befor i found the cheat. i could have carried on aswell but my social life was suffering and i dont think work accepted being addicted to a game as a valid excuse for taking time off. in my 20 hours+ i managed to build the most useless posse of ships and stations in the galaxy. it was hard and fun getting there, but the feeling that after soooo much work i should have more was overwhelming. so i downloaded a save game with 999million credits in the account. ooooh boy was that the smartest thing ive ever done. the flood gates are open, i own ships i could only dream of, i have a fleet of fighters, a chain of stations all supplying one another. the pirates are so scared they started using escorts to protect themselves, but best of all, i destroyed argon one HAHA!!!
I suppose this is more a review of the cheat i used but who cares i couldnt say anything that hasnt allready been said, but i suppose id better try.
The game is great even without cheating. the best thing about the game is that when it says open ended thats exactly what it means. the only way you could run out of things to do would be to destroy every ship and station in the galaxy (thats on my "to do" list) even then theres still your own stations to worry about. The worst thing about the game is the time it takes to build up some cash, oh god the time i spent sat in a station with the time accelerator turned on just waiting till my stations build enough money for a new laser, if my tv hadnt been so close i would have gone insane (well its more likely i would have just turned it off (but im glad i didnt)). this game is very good but unless you have about 200+hours to spare i strongly reccomend downloading the save game i mentioned earlier.
