Ahhhh... but isn't this true of all games eventually?

X3 is the game I go back to most often because the openness of the game 
play after the story line (or with non-story starts) strongly appeals to 
me.  I like experimenting with different factory structures, etc. for 
example.

However it does bore after a while... which is why I'm dabbling around 
with the other titles and praying fervently for X4 or some other new 
title to be released for a bit more variety.

I'm not holding my breath over it though.  :shrug:
