Recently, after viewing Firefly and the BDM for the umpteenth time in the last few weeks, I found myself wondering if there were any "Firefly-esque," video games out there. One that popped into my mind immediately was the old original Privateer game. Where you could buy and upgrade your own ship and do various jobs for cash and glory. I was wondering if any of you knew of any similar and more recent games available, or any that you would suggest. Thanks a ton in advance.

I believe that EV Nova:

has a firefly mod. Or people are working on one.
