Homeworld on IGN’s Top 100 Games List

Posted in Homeworld by ÜberJumper on July 30th, 2005

Dave sent me a note linking to IGN’s top 100 games list.

Why it Made the Top 100 List: Story is one aspect of gaming that doesn’t always receive the attention it needs to move a game from good to classic. Homeworld provided one of the most unique RTS story experiences ever seen on the PC. It was hard not to become connected to the Kushan as they fought across the galaxy to regain their lives and their home while teetering on the brink of extinction. The fact that it was also the first fully 3D RTS (meaning you could move units on the Z axis as well) only helped create wicked challenges in a new type of environment. Homeworld was an excellently crafted game that will forever remain in a place of honor among other real-time strategy greats.

So there you have it, Homeworld in the Top 100 at number 66. As a side note, since when was it ok to only have one space after a full stop?

You know that multiple spaces are ignored by browsers, right? Unless you add in non-breaking spaces.
