Homeworld's best features-graphics engine, scripting, control mechanics, narrative flow, and mission structure, are so fluid, so highly immersive, that it makes the experience far more than the sum of its parts. The  combination of large scale fleet actions and cinematic perspectives creates  the most impressive space combat ever made for a strategy game. Its like  being in the middle of, and in cotrol of, a Star Wars battle. 16 single  player missions can make for some short gaming time but most people go  through the campaign at least twice-its that good. In single player, you'll  encounter 2 races, aside from the  main one that your trying to  decimate.
