Very addicting. That, along with my fish's death, a wedding shower, going over to my friend's, and all normal daily activities has kept me off of the computer.

But anyways, back to EV. I you don't know what it is, too bad for you. Basically you start out as a fresh pilot in a space-shuttle that you can load with some cargo and weapons. Eventually you get enough Credits from pillaging pirates that were most likely disabled by someone else and plenty of odd jobs to buy a slightly larger ship, like a Courier, Light Freighter, or Defender. From there, you work your way up through things like Argosys and Corvettes until you get enough to get the largest civilian ship, the Kestrel. I don't know anything past that. All through this there's two factions, the Rebellion and the Confederation, that fight each-other. I, unfortunately, haven't got as far as to officially join either side yet.

I also appreciate discussion of the two sequels to EV. I forgot the name to the second, but I know Nova is the third.
