Why not?

Isn't that at odds with what you just said? You don't seem to have a
very high opinion of X2, yet you are raving about X3... and then you
say it's like X2, with better graphics?

I'm confused. X2 was sull as dishwater, in my opinion. I don't need a
game that simulates real life in an alternate univers. I'm looking for
an entertaining adventure. That's something that has been sorely
lacking in these space games, since Freelancer. And even Freelancer
wasn't "all that" compared to Privateer.
