Pros: Can be intoxicating
Cons: Some aspects lack due to early game engineering skills

Have you ever imagined being in Star Trek in real life. Well, until technology "advances" far enough to do that, you'll have to be content with trying it playing Homeworld. Homeworld is focused completely around the concept of Star Trek...

Pros: Graphics, sound, gameplay, quality.
Cons: Only one set of levels, no difficulty settings.

There are many words that can be used to describe a 3D tactical space combat simulation like Homeworld. Stunning, fun, realistic, easy, and addictive are just a few. However, the real essence of this game can be summed up in just three words:...

Pros: Well designed gameplay. Excellent graphics.
Cons: Very Hard! Single player game relies on scripted events.

Homeworld is one of those rare games that even had other famous game programmers going "How did they do it!". I remember reading in PC Gamer a meeting between a dozen or so internationally famous game programmers, designers and producers where they were...

Pros: 3D ENVIRONMENT!!! Easy to play and move and look around. Fun single player and multiplayer
Cons: Identical races, space around you looks too empty at times

What more can be said from the topic? This game changes the face of all strategy games for eternity. It added the element of FULL three dimensional movement. The best part about this game is that it is very easy to move around in the 3d space world and...

Pros: Well written gorgeous sci fi RPG story.
Cons: Some missions can be very difficult, linear play.

I have never been very impressed with space games in general. Either the story was a simple knockoff of some bad Star Trek Plot, or the gameplay and or graphics were sub-par.

All of that has changed with Homeworld. Mind you, I have owned...

Pros: Loads of fun, good story, graphics, sound,etc...
Cons: Steep learning curve

I love games that involve space ships. When I saw this game I was at first intrigued. "How can you tell what's going on if the game is 3 dimentional?" Well, to start off with you can't. This is the first game in a while that I ran through...

Pros: Excellent everything. Absorbing. Great graphics and soundtrack. Different - in a good way.
Cons: Steep learning curve for controls. Single player campaign too short.

I've always been a sucker for epic space battles but for some reason I put off buying Homeworld. Maybe it's because from the packaging it looks like another Command & Conquer in space. Nothing could be further from the truth! While the basic...

Pros: Engaging story, Excellent graphics and sound, replay value, quality multiplayer experience
Cons: battle chatter can be annoying, some slowdown during large engagemnets, it ends.....

Sierra has really hit the mark with Homeworld. Homeworld combines an excellent space-faring scifi storyline with playability at the level of Blizzard's classic Starcraft. The story (which takes up roughly half the manual) is very well written and...

Pros: Amazing multiplayer, excellent single-player
Cons: Lack of multiplayer maps, par-level graphics

Okay, first off, I bought this game on a whim. A friend of mine said, "Hey! Buy that game." Boy, was I glad that I did. Homeworld, the 3D real-time strategy game from Sierra, is a phenomenal interaction of the basic real-time strategy games...

Pros: incredible graphics, 3D RTS
Cons: some micromanaging

This is, by far, the very meter stick by which all space real time strategy games should be measured with. Carbon copy games are a dime a dozen, and even many great games are just better versions of an older game. It isn't every day that some developer...

Pros: Beautiful music, gameplay, graphics.
Cons: I honestly can't think of any!

I recieved this game for my birthday last year, after I had not bought it myself. Despite recommendations from three of my friends, I just felt, "Oh boy, ANOTHER space game." I could not have been more wrong.

Imagine you are walking...

Pros: Great plot, excellent gameplay, have I mentioned its all in 3D, one of the few games that focus on strategy not attrition tactics
Cons: Cut scenes were poorly done, AI is questionable in some areas, and the ending was very disappointing

In Homeworld, Sierra ventures into territory that no other company has been successful in, that is making a good real time strategy game (RTS). Westwood has dominated the RTS market with their flagship Command and Conquer. Many companies have tried to...

Pros: it was a great game and it was fun
Cons: not that many to mention

General/Summary: "I have a bad feeling about this", Trust me fellow gamers, the
only time you will hear this line is when one of your squadrons is set to attack a
target they do not think they could beat.
Why such a mighty boast?...

Pros: Excellent gameplay, sound and graphics. Good story line. Its original
Cons: In slower computers, the fps comes down when plenty ships are on screen

Homeworld is a 3D Real time strategy game by Sierra. 3D RTS Means you can rotate the camera horizontally and vertically. This alone is quite different to other RTS games such as Starcraft and Age of empires as you can command your units up and down or...
