Back to the Homeworld!

Schweeeet! This came in the mail today! Time to revisit this classic... The mothership is coolz, makes a nice nightlight haha!

Monday Blues... and HOMEWORLD!

Ahh, there are definitely better things to do on a Monday morning.. least of which is go to work! Life is short enough as it is, why waste the time! Alas, the way the world works means most of us are slaved to our jobs....

Anyway, on the better news! Homeworld is getting a HD Re-release on Steam! Well, there ARE mods which already do this, but still, better than nothing! At least Gearbox is doing something with the license.

Homeworld!

Remember this game? Hard to imagine it was released in 1999, almost 13+ years ago. The sequel was in 2003, and that too was great (although the last boss was darned annoying).

This was the first 3D RTS to me, the graphics were great, and the fleet based actions were way ahead of it's time. I love seeing the little fighters come out of the cruisers, and it's amazing when your capital ships start firing against the enemy fighters.

It's like what the Star Wars RTS should have been if it focused on pure space warfare!

Let's hope someone picks up this license since THQ has ceased to function, and gives us Homeworld 3!
