Gearbox announces Homeworld remakes.

6. Not going to argue with either of you.

Instead I'll point out that by giving the mothership upgradeable weapons and systems, and better mobility, it improved the gameplay of Cataclysm over the original--which has never happened since, in any game, ever.

In the meantime, the original Homeworld team is working on what looks to me to be a spiritual prequel to Homeworld:

The thing I noticed off the bat there is that the flying vehicles had the same vector-tails that were so pretty and useful in Homeworld.

Anyway, yeah, I fully agree with others above who say play it as straight as you can: update the textures, and change nothing else. Especially you guys, Gearbox: if you're going to re-make one of the greatest games ever, the most important thing you can do is keep your own fingerprints off of it.
