Joeretro, 2018-09-25 Works great on 12-core 2013 Mac Pro! I’m a pretty big fan of RTS games and I was a bit sceptical about whether or not I would enjoy the Homeworld series. I heard nothing but great reviews about how Homeworld was a well thought sci-fi RTS with good game mechanics.
So I took the plunge and bought it only to be pleasantly surprised. At first I was thrown off by the change of pace because I’m used to playing Starcraft II, but once I got into the game a bit more I started to enjoy it way more.
II’ll just say that, if you enjoy the thought of commanding your own fleet of starships, then you’ll love this game. It really doesn’t take long to understand the controls, but once you get the hang of them you’ll wonder why other RTS games havn’t done this before. It’s really immersive being able to control your units in a 3D environment. You can move your units along a 2D Plane like any other RTS game, but what really makes this different is being able to move your units up and down in 3D space. There are plenty of tactical uses for this type of movement and it really helps keep the immersion seeing how this is a game about starships in space. Storywise It has a fairly good campaign story that doesn’t really stand out but it’s better than others. Additionally once you finish the campaign you’ll be able to play Skirmishes with the AI or against a friend which makes this good value in terms of replayability.
Performance wise it ran fine on my Mac Pro with the D700 GPU and as a bonus it doesn’t really take up much HD space at all. Bottom line, if you want a good space RTS then pick this up! It’s definitely worth the money IMO. Joeretro, 2018-09-25 Works great on 12-core 2013 Mac Pro!

Homeworld 2 Demo 1.0 The Homeworld 2 demo includes three tutorial missions and the first full single player mission. The full game features a complete single player campaign as well as multiplayer. Homeworld 2 continues the epic struggle of the Hiigarans and their leader Karan S'jet.
Many thought their hardships would end when they returned to Hiigara, yet fate has not been so kind to the Exiles. Now the Hiigarans face a new and bitter enemy, a renegade clan from the eastern fringes of the galaxy, who wield the power of the ancients. Homeworld 2 chronicles the valiant journey of the Mothership and its crew into the oldest regions of the galaxy to confront their new foe and discover the truth behind their exile. Features:. An innovative 3D engine generates cinematic-quality graphics, stunning special effects, and beautifully rendered ships.
The sublime vistas and otherworldly splendor of Homeworld 2 are in the award-winning tradition of the original. In-game cinematics flow seamlessly in and out of gameplay as players command their armada around eerily beautiful phenomena of deep space, including giant asteroids, massive derelicts, gas clouds, and nebulae light years across.
A streamlined interface lets players take total control of their ships and explore the universe. And all-new camera panning makes maneuvering fleets in the thick of battle easier than ever. Zoom in to see objects in intricate detail, zoom out to get a panoramic view, or rotate your view of deep space a full 360 degrees.
In the dynamic 3D universe of Homeworld 2 the awe-inspiring phenomena of deep space – giant asteroids, huge derelicts, murky gas clouds, and vast nebulae – pulse with the energy that permeates the cosmos. These fully interactive phenomena – some strategically helpful and others fraught with danger – add another dimension to gameplay. Two all-new customizable battle fleets, each with unique capabilities and spacecraft, enhance Homeworld 2's strategic complexity and tactical flexibility. Players can now group ships in strike formations that move together into combat. New ships such as the flak corvette and the marine frigate offer innovative tactical choices, while capital ships have subsystems like engines and weaponry that can be crippled while leaving the ship ready for capture.

STIVI (3/16/2006 - version 1.0) Sans Dieu Rien (4/26/2005 - version 1.0) If you're an RTS fan and tired of the same-old-same-old games that tend to borrow ideas off of each other and pawn it off as an original, then this game is a breath of fresh air in a stagnate, stale, stinky.you get the idea. I played the demo version, and am looking forward to the full game. Yes, the demo is very short, but please don't complain-they didn't have to offer a demo!
I love games that are hard to catergorize or explain-you have to try it out to see if it's for you.
