Hard but fair
The game has a relatively steep learning curve for first timer mainly due to the 3D environment. Might get motion sickness with all the spinning around to get the "right" height for the ships to ascend or descend. The ... Read Full Review

This game is WAY to slow, everything takes ages and there's very little fast-paced battling. Low rating.
The games keeps going. I played the tutorial (even if gameplay is simple i always play the tutorial). That went by very slowly, this is usually normal in a tutorial so i wasnt surprised. But the i moved onto scenario, th... Read Full Review

Where the designers failed, modders pick up the slack to create a truly epic space sim.
Now, Homeworld 2 has been hout for many, many years now. The inital reviews mostly railed upon the game being not much newer than the original. That is still very true. With the base package, all you get is a prettier... Read Full Review

One of the most influential games has a sequel: it´s bigger, prettier, shinier... shorter and less entertaining.
Right, let´s start with the good points. The graphics and sound have improved over the original, it all blends together to give you that arabian dusk feel and atmosphere that we all (probably) loved from Homeworld. Th... Read Full Review
