Eve Online is Freelancer on Crack

The Good
One of the things I liked about this game was its total customization ability. You literally can do any skill/training in the game. It is also a nice feature that trainings are "real time". If a skill takes 7 days to train, then it takes 7 real days, whether you are playing or not. This shows that the developers value your money and time.
But the best part of the game are the "guilds," nothing makes this game shine like it's ability to stage large battles with your buddies, as well as have a group of miners harvesting ore in the same asteroid field.

The Bad
I feel that a lot of the skills take TOO much time to train. I think the progression could be a little quicker. Also the graphics aren't legendary, but the game has been around awhile. There is virtually little difference in the space background from Microsoft's Freelancer.

The Bottom Line
Freelancer on crack, and a fully functioning economy. In all honesty, it's like a multiplayer version of X3.
