Stay away from my homeworld, its MINE! MINE I say! Oh, how much fun I had with the first Homeworld, working my way through the enemy fleet, my Destroyers flanked by Ion Frigates, flanked by fighters (in Claw formation). As I reclaimed my homeworld, and the sounds of battle died down, Barber's Adagio for Strings rose to fill the silence. I hope they use that music again.

Yeah I'm obsessed. It not healthy, and I admit it. What you don't know is that I just spent £300 on new hardware just so I can enjoy Homeworld2 in all its glory. Well I guess now you do now. hmmm. But I don't care. If ever there was a reason to shut yourself away from the world for a week, this is it. Miss it, and your life is over. You have been warned.

In 1977 Star Wars set the pace for science fiction films up to the present day. In 1999 Homeworld had a similar effect, carving a niche for itself and creating a dedicated following of fans. Still after 3 years, epic space battles are played by people of all ages, both new to the game and veterans.
When I first sat down to play Homeworld in 1999 I was totally blown away, so much so I have not bought a new game since. The multiplayer element of the game means that there are almost limitless possibilites, I still get an adrenaline rush each time I play the game on line. This is why for me Homeworld 2 is so eagerly awaited. At 34 I am like that small boy waiting to see Star Wars again.
Without doubt, this game is what computers were designed for.

Home World 2 should be Great Fun

Home World 2 is going to be a great game. I'm desperately waiting for its release in Hong Kong, although I have not played Homeworld 1. The graphics look great on the magazines, and the RTS Style fully 3 dimensional should be spectacular. Space is the setting of the game, and should catch your attention very well. If you are going to get only one game this coming month, get Home World 2. I promise that it is going to be a fun filled September for you. On the other hand, Sierra always churns out nice games.

Demo = Great!

The demo for this game came out just two days ago, and I have to say, Homeworld 2 will be awesome. The detail on all of the ships, especially the mothership and Tanis station are just freaking awesome. The battles are like being in the middle of a space world war II, with the black explosions of flak frigates and fighters dodging around. It sounds like you are in the middle of the battle; the explosions sound and look so real you will believe that you are in the game.

I've played the other two homeworld games, and i have to say, that although I have only played the two single and two multiplayer levels in the demo, it looks like it will be even better.

I've already pre-ordered...have you?

This is an excellent sequel to the other Homeworld games. I found no flaws or problems with the game other than I had to upgrade my TNT2 video card.

Playing a tight game gets in the way of watching

I throughly enjoy this game - its everything a space RTS game should be. The battles can be huge - just in my fleet I might have a over a dozen major capital vessels surrounded by 40-50 fighter, corvette and frigate squadrons providing cover across a map where I have to pay attention to 2-3 fronts at once. My only regret is that in tight situations I find myself stuck at a high-level view managing all the activity when I just want to dive down, attach my view to a single corvette, and watch it careen in between frigates and battlecruisers in a major head-to-head clash.

The ships types are balanced, I feel, a bit more than in the first game - unguarded capital ships can be decimated by a well-time attack by bomber squadrons, and constraints on constuction modules make you plan how to best configure your capital assets. Give this game a try..

Fantastic Space Sim

HomeWorld 2 is a great space simulation, sci-fi, real time strategy game. It is played in 3D space with spaceships and space objects, such as nebulas, planets and stars in great detail. The graphics are breath-taking and the cutscenes and music truly engulf you into the world of the game. It is truly mesmerizing.
The game is difficult with a steep learning curve, I had to cheat to get through the whole game, but if you are a sci-fi fan, this is a must-buy, must-have.

Totally Awesome

I bought this game for the sole purpose of using the mod, pds(point defense systems), and it totally rocks! talk about eye-candy, watching tracer fire being shot out of every side of a ship. a must buy if you like watching spectacular fighting between capital ships and dogfighters.

Homeworld 2 ROCKS!
