EVE is a cool game but i found that when i was to busy with real life commitments my skills advanced way ahead of the money my char needed to fly the ships i was ready for so ended up being a money grind for some time.
The graphics rock and the PvP aspect is like no other game i have played. Having been in EVE uni some of my fondest memories were being with 60 other newbs in figates and destroying some morons Vagabond and podding him when he had a full set of snake beta's plugged in his skull.
You can be only a week old and be a key part of fleet warfare as tackeling/webbing someone is the key to victory
.
If i could give one bit of advice to anyone wanting to play it would be this "Don't fly what u can't afford to lose", as most ppl learn the hard way.
