Homeworld 2
-----------------------------
A very fun an interesting game, Homeworld 2 is old yet looks very new. The new 'space' RTS game, Sins of a Solar Empire, isn't nearly as combat fun as Homeworld 2 nor does it have the beauty or animations. Homeworld 2 is a one of a kind, really unheard of game if you will, if more people heard of this it would probably boost in market sales by far!
Flying rooster and I have decided to play it, I already have it and convinced him to get it. Of course in legal terms the game is not free, purchasable online but I don't know much about if it's still in-stock. In some game stores it is, but in most big stores such as Wal Mart or BestBuy it probably won't be on the shelves. Not many people know about it, thats why.

The UI of the game isn't all that beautiful, but it's made up by the gameplay. The UI is simple and easy to navigate through, but may be confusing to the ones not used to it. For it's age it has pretty beautiful graphics, animations and gameplayability. It could really use a spruce up. There are a couple of mods for this game, yet the community that plays it isn't all that big. It would be a very popular game if advertising was higher. One could say its like EVE Online in RTS form.
I really love this game, and it'd be awesome if other people actually played it. It's probably not much out of your wallet, but definetly worth it if you enjoy good RTS games.

Would be a lot more fun if people played it. Private message me for more info, or send me an IM (AIM: radiogerman1011; MSN: footballbud24@yahoo.com).
