I just wanted to make anyone aware that may not be that Elite is making a definite come back.... as long as it can raise the money to do so.
The game will be written by Frontier Developments, the studio owned by David Braben, co-creator of the original Elite.
Please help out - it's on Kickstarter and requires funding by January 4th 2013. Please spread the word, some of us have waited 20 years for a new Elite....!
