"Elite is a game that I've wanted to come back to for a very, very long time," Mr Braben told the BBC. "It's the sort of game that I would very much like to play today."

In which case, download a copy of Oolite and stop killing tribute acts like Elite: The New Kind.
Braben has been talking about re-making Elite for years now. And now he's talking about re-making it but only if a load of people give him the money first. Somehow I don't think this is going to happen. For those that want a modern spacefaring game there are plenty to choose from and for those that still want to haul computers between Zaonce and Lave, Oolite has everything original Elite had, plus a heck of a lot more thanks to its customisable design and extensive support community.
