Homeworld - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Homeworld is also full of symbology, with specific symbols for the Kiith in the game as well as the symbol of the Kushan, which is their ancient homeworld and two eagle's wings. Homeworld was extensively modded by a large group of fans of the genre. A sequel, Homeworld 2, was released in late 2003. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Homeworld   (2751 words)

Homeworld: Cataclysm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Homeworld: Cataclysm was originally developed in 2000 as an expansion set of the original Homeworld, but was later turned into a stand-alone game. Cataclysm uses the same game engine as the original Homeworld, and is essentially another game's worth of the same kind of content - strategic three-dimensional space combat - with some tune-ups to the original, somewhat clumsy, interface. Processors, for example, which seemed to be the modernized version of the Resource Controller from Homeworld, were greatly improved. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Homeworld:_Cataclysm   (642 words)

Homeworld for PC Review - PC Homeworld Review Homeworld is both an excellent game and one that may well reshape the entire real-time strategy genre. Homeworld's gameplay is in fact fairly similar to any tried-and-true real-time strategy game. Thankfully, Homeworld lets you do this sort of thing, because you control when you exit each mission regardless of when and how the mission goals are accomplished. www.gamespot.com /pc/strategy/homeworld/review.html   (1401 words)

Homeworld 2 Preview - PC News at GameSpot A full sequel to Homeworld is now just months away from release, and it's designed to be faithful to the original while evolving the game mechanics, extending the original game's satisfying story, and bumping up the level of visual detail. Homeworld 2 will put you in command of space fleets made of tiny fighters and huge capital ships. While those familiar with Homeworld will have a good understanding of how the game's units are balanced, this early fight is a good introduction to how the four major ship classes--fighters, corvettes, frigates, and capital ships--can work together to counter different threats. www.gamespot.com /pc/strategy/homeworld2/preview_6029832.html   (991 words)

Action Vault - Homeworld 2 Wrap Report It picks up some time after the original as Hiigara, the Homeworld, is threatened by a new warlord backed by a prophecy that foretells the coming of the 'unmaker.' The player controls the Higaran fleet as it seeks to find a way to defeat the enemy and save the Homeworld from destruction. Homeworld 2 is an epic story of the Hiigaran fleet, controlled in full 3D by the player. Homeworld 2 was a fantastic project to work on, in part because of the dedication of the fans, and in part because of the tremendous talent and skill of the team. actionvault.ign.com /features/den/homeworld2wrap.shtml   (1212 words)

CNN - Homeworld brings epic feel to real-time strategy - October 11, 1999 The graphics and sound in Homeworld are so good Relic repeatedly uses the in-game engine to create their cinematics. There are also hand-drawn animation sequences in-between levels, which are impressive, but during a level the only difference between playing the game and a cutscene is your lack of control over the camera and the letterbox format. Homeworld is an epic -- epic in its story, graphics and presentation. www.cnn.com /TECH/computing/9910/11/homeworld.idg   (668 words)

Action Vault - Homeworld 2 Diary #1 Of course, it also means Homeworld 2 faces elevated expectations and a substantial challenge to match and exceed its much-admired forebear. The visual style of both Homeworld and Homeworld 2 has grown from a sci-fi illustration heritage that dates back roughly thirty years to the work of artists like Peter Elson, Chris Foss, and John Harris (visit http://www.altanen.dk/Gallery-Main.htm and http://www.fantasiaonline.com/harris for some great examples). In the next installment of our Homeworld 2 Diary series, we'll be exploring the processes used by the Homeworld 2 design team to turn a story arc into a full-blown game script, and the story delivery methods we use at Relic to keep you glued to your monitor. actionvault.ign.com /features/den/homeworld2dia01.shtml   (1123 words)

Relic Entertainment   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) Homeworld was first announced to the public around August 1998.

HomeWorld Structure   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) This does not mean that every HomeWorld Klingon must be exclusively part of the Klingon Assault Group, nor does it preclude HomeWorld members from participating, or having fealty to any other Klingon or fan organization. HomeWorld was founded for those who know that there is more to 'being Klingon' than merely Rank, or Command position. HomeWorld is focused on the civilian life of the Klingons, with less emphasis on the military. homeworld.klingonempire.net /HW-Home1.htm   (1439 words)

Featuring Homeworld 2 Review at ActionTrip The Homeworld saga resumes as the Hiigarans, having reclaimed their homeworld after generations in exile in the original are faced with yet another daunting challenge. As sequels go, Homeworld 2 doesn't bring as many innovations to the table as one might've hoped for, but that' probably because the original was pretty damn decent to begin with. As usual, rookies to the Homeworld franchise will have a hell of a time trying to adjust to the interface, as the concept of a completely 3D space with depth, height and width may prove a little overwhelming at first. www.actiontrip.com /reviews/homeworld2.phtml   (1681 words)

Game Over Online Magazine - Homeworld   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) Homeworld is far and away the best-looking RTS game ever. The music in Homeworld, which mixes operatic and contemporary elements, is equally as good, but I found it more appealing to turn it off for a more “realistic” experience. Homeworld’s game is broken, surprisingly enough, into single and multiplayer modes of play. www.game-over.net /reviews.php?id=314&page=reviews   (1118 words)

Target PC :: Homeworld Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) Kharaki scientists have found that their DNA is so dissimilar from the DNA of living things on Kharak that it is now believed that they are in fact foreign to their world. The mothership was built to house 600,000 settlers who are in a cryogenic freeze as this civilization begins its’ search for their homeworld.

guides.ign.com Homeworld puts you in command of a fleet of space voyagers headed back to the fabled world of their ancestors. One of the most dastardly (and fun) special abilities in Homeworld is the Salvage Corvette's ability to "salvage"--that is, steal--Capital ships from the opposing fleet. This is one of those fundamental Homeworld tactics that everyone should employ, regardless of the game type. guidesarchive.ign.com /guides/3786   (2431 words)

The main difference behind homeworld and other strategic wargames is the 3D nature of the battlefield. Homeworld was not easy to learn -- the startup tutorial helps you get the hang of controlling your units in true 3-D space -- but that's what sets the standard for a new class of games. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00001LDCK?v=glance   (1752 words)

MacHomeworld   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) The Macintosh port is in active development by a number of volunteers in collaboration with a similar group working to create a version that works on Linux: Homeworld SDL. However, Homeworld Cataclysm was made by another company (Barking Dog Studios) under licence, so one cannot infer from Relic's release of the Homeworld source code the likelihood of the same thing happening for Homeworld Cataclysm. Homeworld 2 for Macintosh was released in September 2004, courtesy of Aspyr Media. www.machomeworld.com   (182 words)

Homeworld 2 Review - Page 1 - The Gamers Temple In 1999 Homeworld captured the imaginations of strategy gamers with its amazing graphics and compelling gameplay, but what really set it apart was that Homeworld was the first game that really got space combat strategy gaming right. Homeworld made it easy to command fleets of ships of all sizes in three dimensional space, leaving gamers free to plot their strategies and then watch the spectacular battles unfold. However, Homeworld 2 is a great game in its own right and reestablishes the series as the top game in space strategy gaming. www.gamerstemple.com /games3/000554/000554r01.asp   (692 words)
