5 out of 5 stars even better than the first.   December 16, 2007
home world cataclysm takes place some years after the completion of the first home world which means you now have your home planet back and your people are no longer on the run and everything about it is even better than the first truly awsome.


5 out of 5 stars Best of the series!   December 19, 2006
At first look this game really only adds a few ships, gives some new technology and improves the graphics slightly, but once you play into the single player you'll see how truly amazing it is.

The single player storyline is certainly the highlight and reason this game is so magnificent. It retains the general 3d feel of the first Homeworld game and it's nice to see a few of the original vessels in there, while it also adds a good few new technologies which are very fun to use. The storyline is perfectly laid out with the drama of every single second a mission is played clearly giving an impact.

This game is a lot like the first, but what makes it the best has to be the story. Brilliant fun and good for people appreciating a nice mix of action and story.



5 out of 5 stars Awesome   September 9, 2006
This is seriously one of the best computer games that I have ever played. The game takes a lot of startegy and takes awhile to learn but once you get going it's terrific. You are given a mission or multiple missions to complete during a progress campaign to stop the Beast enemy from wiping out all who stand in their way. Playing the game at harder and harder difficulty levels makes every mission all the more challenging to complete. The graphics are incredible, especially considering that this is hardly a new game. Everything looks realistic, from the phasers and torpedoes to the ships fading in and out as they move farther away from the viewing camera. Controlling an entire battle fleet is a challenge, but the controls are easy to use and fighting battles on three or four different fronts at the same time is not difficult. This game will be a lot of fun to everyone who enjoys strategizing and engaging in massive space battles.

I just have one thing to say: this game is as fun as you can throw it underwater with your wrists chained to some wall. Also, the interface and mere gameplay feels like an act of congress (looking up how to do things in the manual!) To be frank, don't by this game even if they would give you money in return!

Having just played Homeworld and not really enjoying it, I tried this one, the second game in the series (I bought all 3 at the same time. Shouldn't have done that.)

And so far, I can't even get the game to play. I installed and uninstalled twice. I have downloaded updated drivers for NVIDIA GEFORCE FX 5200 128meg video card. I have changed all of the settings over and over again. And still can't play. I see the beginning story in the aftermath that follows the end of Homeworld, of them rebuilding. But as soon as I see the ship fly in on the first cutscene, I get kicked back to Windows.

My recommedation is if you have XP, don't get this game. So far, it's more trouble than it's worth. So now I guess I will try Homeworld 2.
