Cataclysm was the expansion to Homeworld and Homeworld 2 was the sequel that came out a few years after and I think it's much better than Homeworld or Cataclysm. It's a bit dated now but amazing fun if you can find some friends who play it and you can really have some genuinely strategic space battles.

How do you like Rainbox Six Vegas and MOH:Airborne?

I recently gave up playing Medal of Honor: Spearhead as all the clans with whom I played have moved onto COD4.
I don't really play these games online because I play them more for single player story. Rainbox Six Vegas isn't for pure R6 fans, it's much more arcade like but it is still complicated and you can do great tactical things in the game. The best fun for it is playing through the single player story in co-op mode with a friend or two and it's like you are the squad. Not many games have able co-op like this.

Medal of Honor Airborne is like the WWII Call of Duty games but much, much, much better and without all the silly endless respawning enemies, etc. It's a much nicer WWII FPS where all the missions, you parachute in and therefore you manually control where you want to land and it affects how the mission goes. The graphics are pretty amazing and the gameplay can be intense with an interesting ducking/cover/firing system.

I used to play Battlefield 2 and Counterstrike online back in the day but I really grew tired of it all, if I play anything online, it's for co-op story or for objectives (like capturing points in TFC). That's why I think the new Unreal is terrible because it doesn't have Assault mode.
