Homeworld (or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Space Battles)

Man, I was being so productive. Then, like a fool, I watched the first half of the Battlestar Galactica Pilot. Obviously the next logical step was to re-install Homeworld. Speak in a few weeks I guess.

Got bored surprisingly quickly this time actually. Must be losing my attention span as I get older. I guess it must be because... wait? What was I talking about? Who the hell are you? Where am I?

Homeworld FTW. Will have to reinstall that myself soon. The music - the music of that game was epic. I listen to the soundtrack daily (mixed in with various other game trax)

Yeah, it is beautifully made. A no-question classic. Makes me giggle running it in 1280x1024 and seeing that the FMVs at the start were designed to work in down to 640x480. Production values are stunning considering its age.

Saying that, didn't get bitten by the bug this time. Played for about 10 minutes, then lost interest. But then I am on the last level of Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory for the first time in my life at the moment so that may be why.

Love Chaos Theory. Favourite quote: "Well, if it wasn't an accident, it must have been on purpose." Classic.
