3. Braben's game is a hollow shell. I don't know if SC will also be a hollow shell, but it seems like they're trying to flesh it out a bit before release. Also, don't forget that Braben fucked us all by getting rid of offline play, which CR is not. CR and Braben are taking different approaches, but I'm not sure that Braben's will be superior in the end.

Ever played the original Elite? The new Elite is basically a carbon copy, with prettier graphics. This is ALL that Braben promised, and he delivered. Big. Time. I too am a little bit let down by the 'big empty' of Elite, but at least he shipped a game, and one that the diehard fans of the original Elite wanted. I am not a diehard fan, far from it, but there is no way Im dissing the man for not living up to someone else's expectations. Braben shipped a game, what exactly did Chris Roberts ship??
