 ... ---------------------------------------- --- I was playing this game just before I wrote this op and even though it was created in late 1999 it still has amazing graphics that are far better than most games today. The fight scenes can involve over 1000 space craft each pumping out coloured engine smoke (You can define the colours of your race at the beggining) and shooting each other and still are quiet spactavular . I think part of the reason why was that whe...more

Homeworld (PC): Is there anything wrong with it? (1134 words)

Homeworld is an excellent game in almost every way, the graphics are astonishing, there is a good storyline, it has high difficulty levels involving addictive strategy gamepley, a wide range of units and the movement of your units. Well, to start with what is Homeworld? It is a game in which you play one of two races (the Kusians or the Tiadans) both of them have nearly identical ships in type but both look very different and distinctive to that player. Your race has built a magnificent star ship capable of hyperspace jumps of massive distances. When you return from your test flight, after experiencing enemy encounters, you find your home planet destroyed. There is  Read the complete review

HomeWorld is a game that you will pick up and NEVER put down, even though I’m writing this a year after the release of HomeWorld, I would still recommend that you buy this game. Shop around and you will find that you can get this game for as little as £20 despite its lack of release on discount label. You are given the choice of commanding two fleets of ships, as far as I can tell there is no difference in the missions that you will play however some of the ships on each side look better than others. You can choose a colour scheme for your ships and this will be applied to anything you build; however the most important and exciting part of the game is the chance  Read the complete review

Homeworld (PC): Just what a 3D graphics card was for (230 words)
by - written on 22/09/00, updated on  22/09/00 (Very useful, 21 readings)
Rating:

Its a complete gaming experience. It must have just about the best graphics there are (though hopefully your card can render 32Mb as it makes a difference), and most definitely the best sound ever in a game - eery, spooky, racy. And the game? Well that is pretty damn good too. Your mission is to find your homeworld - where you originally came from. Trouble is it is half way across the galaxy, so of course you set off on an adventure and meet many evil beings along the way. Of course, it is fairly standard RTS underneath it all - though the resource colection and reseacrhing is low down in the mix and the battles and graphics are up at the top. ...  Read the complete review

I loved it. (407 words)

I really enjoy this game. I have completed all of the missions a couple of times and still play the multiplayer missions against the computer. The graphics are good and the soundtrack adds to the game. One of the differences about this game is it is played in 3D, you need to worry about positioning your ships in a 3D environment. It takes a bit of getting used to, but when you get the hang of it (By doing training missions) it is a lot easier. It is similar to command and conquer but set in space, your people were evicted from their home planet three thousand years ago, your people develop hyperdrive technology, while you are testing this new ...  Read the complete review

Homeworld (PC): 3D strategy, beyond compare (133 words)

Rating:

This game is amazing, there has not been a game it before, or since. It is a 3-dimensional strategy game, set in space. The basic plot is well thought out. This is not its strongest point though, that is its gameplay ability. It is suprisingly easy to control. The graphics are good, and the sound is also very good. The great challenge of this game is to find tactics to out-smart and out manouevre an opponent in a 3d environment. This adds a whole new level to the game, quite literally. The ability to attack from the front, back, side as usual, but also from above, below, all directions basically. This is the future for strategy games, superior ...  Read the complete review
