Wee bit pricey in the UK, it's £30 with 15% off it comes down to £22.94. That seems a hell of a lot to pay for a remaster of an ancient game. Now I love Homewold, still have my discs for Homeworld and the sequel but £30 for this seems a tad bit too high for me. I was expecting it to be about £15-£20 before discount.

I think I am gonna wait till I see some footage of what they have actually done before I commit to this, even then I might wait for a sale till it is around £10 - £15

The footage on the steam page not enough?

Guess they'll release more trailers as release date approaches.

This better have the YES song in it

I'm glad they kept the old soundtrack. I mean why wouldn't they, but I would probably not buy it if it didn't. One of the top soundtracks of all time in my opinion. Great ambient.
 
Happy to see it releasing so soon but I'll wait for impressions before picking it up. Not ready to give Gearbox the benefit of the doubt.

Never played these before but I've heard a lot of good things. Should I be excited for this? Trailer doesn't show much

Can't wait for Homeworld, game was amazing when I played it back then. Will get the Remastered version.

I wonder when Homeworld: Shipbreakers will release.

A bit too pricey, even being both games.

Double dipping them (still have the originals) sooner or later, but I'm going to wait for some extra discount.

I opened Steam this morning to that pop-up, ULTRA EXCITEMENT. Now to just survive the wait and hope that Amazon ships those CEs out for same day arrival.

The price is putting me off at the moment.
I was expecting a £16-18 price tag.

I'm hoping this goes on GreenManGaming soon to help reduce the price a bit.

EDIT: ahhhh I just bought it anyway.

I'm super excited now. I love homeworld back in the day.
I hope they support mods in the remastered collection as well.

Fuck it, I preordered it. I wanted the physical product but Amazon says that it will be available fucking December 31...

Yea I've had the physical mothership pre ordered since September on amazon and there has been no update in forever. Was there any announcement if the physical release will meet the Feb 25 date?

Mothership replica is corny anyway. Would much rather have a guidestone replica.

Edit: So, are the classic versions being released before or alongside the remastered versions?

Also:
Access to the Homeworld Remastered Steam Multiplayer Beta: play Homeworld races against Homeworld 2 races with up to eight players on 23 maps, plus brand new game modes
Is this a multiplayer beta before the remasters are released, or are they pulling the multiplayer out to sell separately?
