By what I've seen so far this game looks great! I was a fan of the frist Homeworld and can't wait for this next one! The graphics, story, gameplay and the 3D real time strategy all earn an A+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't wait

I personaly love games with a good story, and one of them is the universe of Homeworld.
Homeworld 2 is the sequel to Homeworld and Homeworld: Cataclysm, so if it's the same quality...then!!...(: (It should be better)
It's one of those games you just can't let go - not before you have completed it anyway.

The Best Game ever made continues...

I've played a multitude of games in my day and not yet have I ever come across a better gaming experience than Homeworld. The graphics, music, effects, sounds, story and total game play was super fantabulous! I was not as impressed with Cataclysm (the expansion) but I plan to be first in line to get my copy of Homeworld 2. I have no doubt that it will be worth the incredibly long wait they've put us through for this one! My only hope is that number 2 lasts twice as long because I hated to see the end of the first one.

I can't wait for this game to arrive, the first HomeWorld was incredible, truly a classic, with gameplay to match it's awesome graphics.
I hear this version will include a skirmish mode for limitless replay value, plus improved graphics & interface, mmm...
If you're into science fiction & like strategy games you should give this game a go, and if your not sure I believe Sierra's website has a demo available for download.

Looks ok

We all loved Homeworld, but Homeworld 2 looks a little sad to me,
because on the cover , the first thing you see is Karen S'Jet covered with wires, and Sierra says its rated Teen, I know it's not a big deal, but what makes this game so much worse than Cataclysm and the original?, I mean it looks ok, and from what I can see the story line is good, and the graphics are VERY improved, but the mothership looks like {yuck} compared to the original. anyway, I just hope its good, and not all, i don't know how to put this, i just don't want it to turn into some weird game for freaks...

Best game ever!

If this game is as good as the other two in the fantastic homeworld series, it is obvious to me that this will be even better.As the other two games showed, they have taken space games like this to a whole new level, and if the other two installments were amazing, then H2 will be as good as gold!

better multiplayer

If theres one thing I'm trully loking forward too in this game it's the expanded and upgraded multiplayer. I loved the story line and action of Homeworld (wasn't a huge Cataclysim fan), but when it came down to it the multiplayer of Homeworld broke down into who could build the fastest and overwhelm there opponent. I'm looking forward to a multiplayer where it will be possible to employ unique and creative strategies to beat your opponenets all 5 of them :) (nice job Relic!), intead of just building the other guy into the ground. All in all I can't wait!

Good, but not good enough.

Homeworld 2 is surely going to be a great game, but is it good enough?

Sure, it is vastly improved comparing to Homeworld, but the graphics of Homeworld2, from what we saw in prview-build release, isn't good enough, and even out-dated comparing to other 3d games. The blurry textures can be found throughout different sections of the ship models, and the texture itself look like color plattee, gives no sense of material.

The explosion and debris effects is good, but have you noticed that all pieces of debris look exactly the same? The effects are not convincing, either, for a powerful capital ship simplay disappear after it is destroyed, instead of releasing huge radious of destructions as we would have expected. Even a mod from the original Homeworld can do that, and I wonder what make Relic think that the fans won't want to see some realistic explosions.

The removal of fighter formations and refueling of the strike crafts are stupid. Without the limitaion of refueling, fighters will be flying everythere and no one is going to build a single capital ship. Without formation, it is impossible to organize the strike crafts into groups.

Homeworld2 will still be a good game, but it won't be excellent as it should have been.

Hi this is FirePSA of Paktu Sjet Armada and i am here to review HW2. I have both games and i'm stoked about this one! The other 2 games were great (but HW:C was not as good as the original HW) and i'm not sure how you can improve on those 2. The grahpic, sound, camera, story, etc. have all improved in HW2. The bad things though are it comes out in late August and the Hiigaran MS (Mothership) looks like a banana ad the back has a bunch of engines that look like dots; maybe relic can look into this and tweak the MS a little. Otherwise this game HAS to be great or will sue, i didn't get all excited for nothing. I just can't wait until it comes out!

This is art....

I have played hoeworld and stayed with it for as long as i can remember sierra making this game and i love it. I made concept art about these ships but mine dont look as good. This game to me is basically pure art and makes me real happy they re-did the graphics of the game and lol im not 13 tho im 15 writing a atrical on this cuz im too lazy. People if you do want to get a good game get this this marks history in pc graphics and is a epic worth falowing and plaing just for the fun of it.
