I M weak

Post by FireFro »

Even though I start classes again tomorrow and I have absolutely no time for videogames, my friend took me to the mall today to look for a PS2 game (Dynasty Tactics, looks pretty good so far), and I picked up Homeworld and Homeworld Cataclysm for $20. Damn you people and your raving about good games. Anyway, just played through the first few missions of the original and I can see why people like it so much. It's nice to discover an old game that you missed first time around. I'm really enjoying it (gameplay, sound, even story).<br><br>I imagine I will be back to beg for advice when I start getting my ass kicked in the missions. <p>------------------<br>XMEN|FireFro[DTM] --- "I hate shocklances"<br><br>"Maybe Tycho dosen't like MegaTokyo because it's a bunch of hyper-cute self indulgent self pitying highly idealized escapist trash that epitomizes the absolute worst aspects of Anime fandom. <br><br>Or hey, maybe there's another reason." --- august</p><i></i>

I never played the original Homeworld, but Cataclysm is a tough one to crack sometimes. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:arial;font-size:xx-large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>I HATE EZBOARD!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

One thing about Homeworld: your ships and resources carry over from one mission to the next. Therefore the #1 rule of Homeworld is to collect ALL the resources on a map before warping to the next one!<br><br>Also, you will eventually be limited by the number of ships you have and so won't be able to build any more. That's OK - capture them from the enemy!<br><br>(BTW - they ARE working on Homeworld 2. I've seen some screenshots and they're bee-yoo-ti-ful.) <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.xmenclan.org/xmengambit.gif"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br>XMEN member<br>Card-carrying DTM<br>OKL Fish-napper<br><br>Though a program be but three lines long, someday it will have to be maintained.<br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em> The Tao of Programming</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub141.ezboard.com/bxmenclan.sho ... ambit>XMEN Gambit</A>&nbsp; <IMG SRC="http://www.xmenclan.org/images/x.gif" BORDER=0> at: 1/6/03 8:58:28 am<br></i>
