Hey, its not a particularly overly or even close to being linear in gameplay, but its in space and you shoot stuff and the graphix rool, so go to the sight and play it immidiatly or suffer the doomy doom of death.

The story is, in the future everyone in space is a member of some corporation, which is the only way space travel can be afforded, you start in a training academy (well actually in space til you learn to fly) then get in touch with an Agent from your Corps. From there they give you all kinds of crazy missions that acclimate you to the game. Some missions are simple, go out, kill, come back, money! Some are a lil boring but pretty. Go out, jump to a system, pick up porn holograms, jump back, deliver, MONEY! Yay, you do this to gain bigger and better ships so you do more fun killy missions cuz once your trips hit 10 systems, you pretty much put it in windowed mode and read penny arcade while you wait.
It has some good qualities, the gamers are REALLY part of the game politics, their actions affect galactic politics, like shooting someone in some system could ignite a war, or ignite a screaming banshee of bounty hunters to begin searching for a criminal base in the system and blow up your mom or something. Anyway, its a really cool game, find me on there on the Galleante Side, I'm around the Uni of Callae in the Nexus Cluster working as a Biologist and courior.
