WOW..sublime...

I reckon the fact Star Citizen is being developed is pushing these two crews ever onwards and upwards..

I have to admit that in the middle of watching that I right clicked and tried to pan the camera.

Could have been watching the movie "2001 a Space Odyssey". Very, very similar.

Someone mentioned in the youtube comments, that the original Elite also used that music for the docking sequence.

I dont see a problem.  I've sat back and watched the opening of HW or HW2 and just enjoyed the graphic splendor of the game with its music.  Adagio for Strings......  come on man!

Well I haven't noticed graphics like that in game yet  ;D

The stations I've seen have been big blocks

But I look forward to when it DOES look like that

I don't think anyone had a problem with it. They were just mentioning that Braben used it in the original game as well, most certainly because of 2001. It is Blue Danube. Adagio for strings is Platoon. :)

Ah, nice. :) I thought you were talking about the Elite video when you mentioned that. Hopefully they will include it in the new edition. I never played the earlier HW games.
