- Awesome.
Own the game, beat in 2 weeks. Pretty easy to learn the controls, hard last missions. Now, I change it around with mods, thats it.

- Too hard for causal players
First off: I gave up on Homeworld about one-third though the campaign. Using a small bit of resources, building a few units and carrying those forward to the next mission sounds great but it's very hard in practice. You can't afford to lose many units and I lost them too frequently. After many reloads, I've wimped out. I just can't afford the many hours required to master this game.

That said, this game has a lot going for it. There's a good story and soundtrack. On top of the every-unit-is-precious strategic aspect is the pseudo 3-d playing field which does add tactical depth to the RTS genre although it's plagued by a poor camera scheme that locks the camera to any one of your units. The control scheme is also poor and relies on keyboard input too much.

This isn't a bad game, in fact, there's a lot of depth here. It does require a lot of patience/time to master.

- user unfriendly
I found this game very difficult to play. After a few sessions of about 30 to 60 minutes each I put it back in the box and tried to return it to Best Buy. They wouldn't give me a refund or store credit or anything but sympathy. I could probably learn to play it ok with several more hours of practice but that seems more like work than fun.

- Very hard, to pick up but great anyways...
This game is about conquest, exporation and it's got ever thing you needed for a great RTS. But the game is so hard to pick up I stopped playing it the first day. But with age it become a echo in the back of my mind I could remember how hard it was to even figure how to play. But a year later I rediscovered it and now it is a lot easier, probably because I am older now, but we will never know.

3/5 For the tutorial: As for me, it was hard to pick up like I said, and it is still pretty hard, but hey.

5/5 For the music: I am, one of the few teenagers out there, who hates Rap music. But I think anyone even Rap lovers will love the music.

4/5 For the graphics: They looked cool I was breathless with the destuctation of there homeworld in the like 4th mission. But some of the weapons pulse could have looked better.

5/5 For the story: This is what I look for in a game storyline, if it didn't have one. sorry not paying for it, not even if it was a dollar.

My final reveiw of this game, it's got a great storyline, perfact voice overs. But as for the tutorial it was sucky as in not enough descipetion. But the battle action is very cool to watch, the movies are amazing. As for the last word, not the best game to go and pick it right up. But hey, you have to to buy it.

- GREAT GAME BUT WATCH OUT FOR MISLEADING SELLERS! (GAMESTOP)
Homeworld is one of the best games I've ever played. I first picked it up 3 years ago but was unable to finish it due to time constraints. I'd bought the Game of the Year edition and the soundtrack is great and the Strategy Guide is helpful. A year ago I sold the game and guide, (but not the OST). I've had a yearning to finally finish the game, as well as play the two sequels, (Cataclysm and Homeworld2), so I got online and started looking for a used edition.
Lo and behold I find that the Game of the Year edition is available from Gamestop through our favorite online store Amazon. I have visions of my freshman year playing HW with the guide and actually finshing the game this time, so I order it.
Imagine my dismay when the game I receive is not, in fact, the Game of the Year edition of my fond memories, but a cheaper, release version. Many game companies do this. They repackage their most popular games and send them out as "Classics" or "Best Sellers". In this particular instance, Sierra Entertainment has re-release the "Game of the Year Edition of Homeworld" as a "Sierra Best Seller Series" game. This version does NOT include the strategy guide. It does NOT include the OST. It doesn't even include the game's manual which, as I recall, was quite significant, containing much of the story line. No, my friends, this version of the game does not even include a jewel case for the CD-ROM. It's a box, with a CD in a sleeve, that's all.
The game is still great, and I'm ordering the strategy guide used, but I've given Gamestop bad feedback because they apparently didn't feel obligated to let potential customers know that they were being misled.
So if you're looking for the Game of the Year Edition of Homeworld, DO NOT look to GameStop for your answer. Find it somewhere else on Amazon, or online, or even in an EB Games or other "real world" store.
Good luck and Happy Gaming!
