Poll The Order VS Homeworld (50 votes)

The Order 12%
Homeworld 88%

My friends: the time is upon us. As the sun dies a slow death; the stars begin to dot the sky; ghost images from the past.

Of these two platform exclusives released and soon to be, in the same time frame - is Sony's multimillion dollar highly marketed cinematic game "The Order", a modern cinematic game with modern sensibilities better an almost 20 year old strategy game from 1998, with a lick of paint?

Can pc really be that good, as to outclass console games years in the future, when children have developed into adults with hairlines? Is such a thing possible? Is it?

I'm a cow, self confessed cow, yet even i know that Homeworld is the master in this poll. In fact, not many games come close to Homeworld in terms of gameplay and immersion

illogical. Mouse Trap is a better board game than Chess.

Homeworld's a classic. Not many good games can stand up to it, much less a bad one.

I always liked Guess Who more than Connect Four.

What were we talking about again?

It seems a Sony person has voted for "The Orders" on principle.

Shocking.

Indeed jacorcrop; it's very peturbing seeing the young console people attempt to actively dismiss real time strategy games.

This could be due to mainstream media purposefully excluding it from coverage (unless Blizzard) to focus on lowest common denominator titles; conditioning the user-base akin to H.G Wells 1984's dystopian nightmare.

Or possible, a lack of experience, due to strategy games on consoles not transalating due to simplstic controls not adapable for games with depth.

Another cynical point of view to take; console gamers simply aren't clever in comparison to pc gamers, a shocking revelation.

Overall: it seems very counter-intuitive to dismiss strategy games; a genre that almost exclusively focuses on game-play mechanics when console games are currently inundated with video games that place "game-play" last on the pyramid scale; currently "The Order" is selling very well, encouraging future titles of it's ilk to take the same route.

Is brand loyalty so strong in some people that they'll choose a pile of shite over a classic game?

What do you expect from corporate slaves? Not all console gamers are like that but some slaves make rest of them look bad.

The order will sell more (because of hype and marketing)

Homeworld remastered will be the better game

Such is life.

Also I think the prices got switched around. The Order should be 30 (even that is stretching it) while Homeworld Remastered should be 60.

Well, yeah, all of your arguments are the same, and have no points of discussion. So of course you chain quote eachother.

Homeworld has more gameplay in it's tutorial than the entirety of The Order. It also has skippable cutscenes and no QTEs.

Is not really fair to put a movie against a video game on a video game forum.

This is just silly spam. No point in letting this asinine comparison continue.
