  • i love star wars and trek...they'd be bugs on homeworld's windshield.

  • This game, and more so the story behind it, was epic. This definitely should be made into a full scale blowout movie. I have never had a story enthrall me more. It could be so great.

  • unfortunately, film industry is a small circle. they usually don't let promise artiest or writer into the circle. that is reason why holloywood movie is getting boring in last few years.

  • 2. Intro

    On Kharak another war started between many Clans. Every Clan has his own vision about her exist. So they fight about who is right. Then after years of years mankind found an secret and forgot town, the first town ever created on this planet. In the city their they found a shipwreck about hyperspace jump and a stone with an galactic map on it that show the way to "Hiigara". Now the actual plot begins :P

  • If they would make a Movie there mus be at least 2 Intros!!!

    1. Intro

    On Hiigara is a big war between two sides who ever win, will rule the galaxy! Well one side loose and was banished to the outer space where they found after years of seraching a planet for live. But after years of conolization they forgot her "Past" and dont know where they came from.

  • i heard through the grape vine of a homeworld movie .. only rumors spoke in the dark im afraid though ..

  • More or less. It's called Homeworld: Ascension made by CrimsonInquisitor here on youtube. I'm not sure what stage he's in as far as making it, but it's a machinima. The trailers seem quite nice.

  • their concept art is so fuking good..

    the game with the best space craft design ever

  • i won't say it is best design. however, the game is super. story is event better. homeworld truelly rock.

  • if u have some links to similar concept art or something can u send it to me?

    thanks

  • no problem, but it will take few days.

  • few weeks ago, i sent you some link to your e-mail.  however, i am not sure you recieved them or no.

  • A forgotten past. A lost home. An ancient guidestone. An epic journey into the center of the galaxy, and an emotional flight into the depths of the human heart. This haunting song still gives me goosebumps even after all these years...

    "Our home is our world, our life..."

  • this song makes me cry

  • This game made me realize how valuable our Earth is 'sigh' Epic game one of the best in the 20th century. . . .

  • Very awesome game, amazing story taken from a collaboration of original stories into something gripping, fun, and heart-opening.

  • The beauty of the lyrics, the game, and the fact that the grand finale is presented this way made me cry in joy.

    Thank you, relic, thank you, Yes, and thank you, fellow fans of Homeworld.

  • Yes is awesome, and this song is simply amazing.

    Homeworld was an awesome game, so I guess they're a perfect match for each other.

  • It would be great that budget was available to make a movie based on "Homeworld" and of course using the original song theme

  • Indeed indeed... it would be far more awesome than Startrek and Starwars together! (My opinion)

  • I think it'd work better as a Dune-style miniseries than as a film. The franchise probably isn't popular enough to justify a cinematic outing, and a miniseries would let the story be told at a more leisurely pace that's more respectful for the material.

  • hell, i remeber watching this.. all those years ago; kicks the ass of credits sequences on most games ... everything is so epic about this game

  • A new space flight RTS has been released call Sins of a Solar Empire i bought it cos it looks homeworld-ish. Its good i;d recommend it

  • i was looking at stuff on youtube and found these vids and now i have played and beat homeworld and cataclysm again. cant find my homeworld2 :( oh well these games are just great

  • on homeworld2 complex mod im the vager rebles

  • Best...Song....Ever!

  • If Relic would make a game set in the same First Homeworld War era, but playing as a pilot of a fighter/bomber or a captain of a Corvette or bigger capital ships, that would be A-W-E-S-O-M-E!

    Imagine playing the same missions of the RTS but as if you were one of those warriors! Zipping across the battle in your tiny fighter or slowly closing into the fight in your assault frigate while manning one of the turrets etc...

    It has been too long since a Space Flight Game was released..

  • Loved this song, and the game...wish they made a 3rd homeworld...IT WOULD BE AWESOME

  • Damn. Nine years? Wow. This game should be remembered more often.

  • i've had Homeworld since it's release and nomatter how many more games comes out this 1 is the best of all, i mean you can clearly see and sense that some seriously heavy effort and dedication was put on this game, i still play to this day and will my normal name is Kith-Caraal

    and yes the story bit is lovely no game can beat the HW story everything in this game is perfect, even sound and graphs after all these years(they were top notch in 1999) so i give it 111111100000000/10 possible!!!!!!!!!

  • you are so right!

  • Homeworld 2 was disappointing i still got friends that want to borrow my HW cd to play because its so awesome and it's been 9 years. lol.. i love this game it was part of my life. o_O too bad my fire wall acts up and doesn't allow me to play online.

  • Simply my Epic-est gaming experience in... possibly ever. This song made for the most satisfying ending to a game bar none.

  • Well, there is the ending to Portal. Tough call...

  • you are here <3

  • this was one of my fav games because of its lovely story and gameplay but damn it was hard

  • i remember homeworld. WHY THE HELL AREN'T THERE MORE GAMES LIKE THIS. this is the only realistic RTS game i've ever played. Everything is real. haha *sigh*

  • Because games like Homeworld are not suited for narrow-minded casual gamers.

    And in our world, it's all about money.

  • truly an amazing game it is the #6 game of all time, great story, gameplay and music (i.e. this song)i bought way back in 2000 and i still play in fact i just finished going through it again a couple days ago.

  • i miss the community from this game, anyone remember me? (Airwolf)

  • ain't nobody remember you

  • THIS IS THE BEST GAME EVER!

    no really ive played all sort and this is this the best experience of all time!

    ive played here are just a few HL1+2 System shock 2 Baldurs gate 1+2 Deux ex

    the only one that comes close to this game is system shock 2

    they simple dont make games this good anymore =[

    Homeworld 2 was a fail

  • Legendary song............... good old homeworld one of the greatest space games created in my opinion xD

  • and whats with freelancer?!?

  • wish there was a cross between freelancer and homeworld always wanted to fly a taidan fighter

  • now if only relic made homeworld 3.....

  • best game ever

  • A lot of commits on Home World. I did not think that people played this game any more. I played it 3 year back and I had fun just making salvage ship and taking every thing that moved.By the end I had so much I could not control it all. good ending some day I do Home World 2.

  • quite possibly the most rewarding and enjoyable game and ending i've ever experienced. homeworld and yes for the freaking win.

  • Campbell lane, has the best voice in the world, he would give james earl jones a run for his money

  • This game was so well done. even after all these years I freaking love this game.

  • yes, i love relics RTS games

  • Earth= Kharak

    Hiigara= Some place out there

    Food for thought its a question of origin.

    Did we evolve on Earth or did we come from out there?

  • kharak is a desert world. just sand and rock. the question would hold more merit if you were thinking Hiigara was earth.

  • Yes, we evolved on Earth. Our single-cell or even amino-acid grandfathers might have come from space though, but could hardly be classified as even remotely intelligent in human standards. Stop looking at Earth as a place disconnected from the universe, we are all the stuff of ancient super-novae. We are what remains from the biggest bang there ever was, one instance of quasi-time and space of greater importance to us than both Jesus AND the Beatles!

  • 1999 Game Of the Year (Century)

  • Did you guys notice the easter eggs in the ending credits? One of the last scenes is a shout out to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Doug Adams (Universe pic with "you are here" on it, taken from the Total Perspective Vortex)

  • Tell u the truyth i got all the way to part where u gotta blow up hyperspace rods and army of ion cannons surrouneded. wow i lost soo many times i quit, but its still so fun!

  • Cloaked salvage corvettes. Lots of them.

    I stole their entire fleet.

  • I approve of you. :'D

    I did the same, just without the cloak.

    I'd send a Scout in to distract a few Ion Frigates from their fleet, and then have said frigates run RIGHT into a wave of Salvage Corvettes. :D

    I particularily enjoyed hijacking fighter-class ships WITHOUT the Gravwell. xD Kamikaze, and then at the LAST SECOND, order to Salvage. They RAM the fighters, but TAKE 'em. :3 I LOVED having a Turanic Raider fleet. xD

  • ALMOST 10 YEARS!!!! i was playing this game when i was 8 years old and its even better now that i know what im doing when i play.

  • An inspiring game...

    A world unifies under a unique banner...

    Epical History.

    Why not a series?

    A dude cries whe it finish...

    Imagine our world under a one and only goal.

    Perhaps, one day, we will find our Homeworld.

  • Mars= Kharak

    earth= Hiigara

  • That part is so true! XD

  • huhuhhuhuh T____T

  • Most beautiful, original and meaningfull Game I've ever had the privilege of playing.

  • The people who made Homeworld did the new game Sins of a Solar Empire. It's pretty sweet.

  • Uh, no, Relic didn't make Sins of a Solar Empire.

    People consider Sins a spiritual successor to Homeworld, though.

  • The people who worked on homeworld were hired by SC to make Sins, so technically it's made by the same people under a different company.

  • been at least 7 years..wow... :')

    greatest game ever.

  • I cried when I beat this game, I really never wanted it to end, I love this game.

  • Homeworld has been my favorite game of all time. I too wish someone would put together a Movie or mini series.  If as good as the game it would be as great or better than star wars.

  • i wish there was a movie about the homeworld-story...

  • You are right O.o

  • Sadly, such a movie would be incredibly long, there is so much story that must be explained that it would be at least 10 hours long!

  • i have a questio, could anybodie tell how can i get the video of the credits of homeworld cataclysm, i have the game, but i can upload the video here

  • Game cam? That's all I can think of.

  • its one of the few games i can pop into my computer and enjoy... i never get tired of it... i might as well pass it again for the 5th time... its just an amazing game.

  • This really brings up some nostalgic feeling. I would sure love to see a new Homeworld...

  • There is Homeworld Cataclysm and Homeworld 2 out.

  • Uh, yeah, I know... thanks? lol

    I meant a new Homeworld as in like, you know, a new game that hasnt been released yet... come on man lol

  • played the game day since it came out, loved it always... most enjoyable credit song.

    good homeworld community =)

  • BEST CREDITS SONG EVAR.

  • After loving Yes since the early 80's, reviewing these video clips and game reviews and the comments about all of them, I went out and bought the game...

    I look forward to the experience ;-)

  • It is a game I hold dare to my heart and hope that you enjoy every minute you play of it.

  • So beautiful, this makes you feel the light and the warmth after such a long and painful journey ! 10 years after I'm still touched and amazed...

  • lol!

    "Special thanks to God (whoever she is)"

    hahahaha!

  • I love tehe game!!! I love the song!!! I love Yes!!!

    What can I say? xD

  • best end of game credits song evaa

  • just an awesome game!!!

    best game i`ve ever played...except homeworld-2^^

  • man i got this game in elementary school. my first rts ever. perfect end for such an epic and emotional game. love it. eternally

  • what is the name of that song?!

  • the song is homeworld (the ladder) by Yes, it is a full on tune, that is by far the best credits of any game ever, I remember playing this when I was a kid, shit hot game

  • So true. So much imagination and sheer pride went into making this game, and it just shines through every detail in the game. Cheers to one of the greatest games of all time.

  • It even beats Portal's Still Alive.

  • wow. Unfortunatley I only have homeworld 2, it's still good but my friend has the first and it is damn good. I just hope that homeworld 3 comes soon, since THQ bought the liscence I hope they do the series some good.

  • THQ will probably rape it beyond recognition. It would be an insult to see THQ on a Homeworld game box. I'd flip shit if that happened.

  • Don't you knew it? THQ Bought Relic, so i don't see problem.

    I Can't wait for Homeworld 3

  • gives me goosebumps lol, i love this game

  • Best computer game ever!!!

    Except maybe Starflight.

  • friggen amazing song

  • This would be the perfect song to play during New Years 2010.

  • why?

  • This is the only game that I sat through the whole credits for the song and art, which I look forward to every time I beet the game.

  • well...you could watch the credits anytime^^

  • The most awesome ending of a game ever, it's too bad the video doesn't combine the end with the credits.

  • Now that's a stylish, fitting ending to an absolutely spectacular game.

    "<you are here".

    Almost made me cry.

  • me too lol :/ i thought i was the only one in the world xD

  • Me too... heh.

  • Ekhm.. Me to. It's so magical...

  • "voice of fleet intelligence" - Michael Sunczyk, is he from Poland or does he have polish orgins??? ;)

  • "voice of fleet intelligence" - Michael Sunczyk - is he from Poland or is he have polish orgins ??? ;)

  • Guys 9 minutes credits maybe more!Is there other game that has so much people/team to thanks to lol?Like a world record :) =).

  • The credit sequence was far and away the best part of the game.

  • Nope the song is also but it is about the idea for a suck classical strategy game!It is a classic in RTS games GAME OF THE YEAR 1999 PC GAMER!The music is maybe specially made for the game don't know lol. :)

  • Fantastic I loved this ending many thanks

  • This was, and is the best game I've ever played

  • i dont get if the song belongs to homeworld 2 or 1? I remember playing all vers. even cataclysm, but i cant seem to remember which one had the great ending song.

  • Homeworld 1

  • Homeworld 1!Song Yes - Homeworld (The ladder)

  • I have this song but I never thought it was a huge project while looking at the credits. It's still one of the classic Real Time Strategy games in history.

  • I love !!!! Who is the singer ??

  • Yes is the group that wrote

  • "Yes"

  • When I finished the game and heard this song, I fell in love with Yes. Bought all of their albums and even went to a concert a few years ago. They rule!

  • When I first saw this game. I have to have it. When I heard the song, I was like Score!!! My Favorite game. I like it better than Homeworld 2

  • This song is amazing, and i've never even heard of the game, can someone tell me what its all about?

  • Homeworld is the best space strategy game i know! ;)

    It has an amazing story and gameplay, you should try it if you like strategy games^^

    I finished it a few days ago :-P

  • But be warned, its one of the hardest you'll ever play.

  • Yeah you're right, it's very hard. I had to pause a lot to plan my next step :)

    You must have a lot of patience in this game^^

    Like BigWappy, I like the first HW better than HW2, the story was way better^^

  • Only thing wrong with hw1 was no auto harvest before hyperspaceing..b/c u need every inch of RU's before going on. But other then that, way better then hw2 :3

  • Aaah yes, it took a looong time, till I had harvest all the RUs^^ At least in cataclysm you could speed up time to 8x^^

  • Lol not way better the moving was bad evne in patches you should be able to move with mouse clicks!

  • Ya, use to remember walking away from the computer for an hour and come back to all of the RU. Still, the game in itself is just breathtaking.

  • Homeworld- a beloved old game, it's still inspiring. Great theme song. *adds to favorites*;-)

  • Homeworld...my god...more than a game...more like an experience. Sort of like that movie Das Boot, not a movie, an actual, what seems like an experience that sticks with you for life.

    I also happen to worship the band Yes and they were the perfect selection to close the most perfect and innovative "game" of all time.

  • what he said, lol

  • "Homeworld...my god...more than a game...more like an experience" Should be a Quote lol

  • My god, what an epic.

  • I think I almost cried watching this video.

  • both the song and game are awesome

    add to favorites

  • man when i beat the game, iwas liek aww shit it's over, but i fucking loved the credits hell i still pop in the cd jsut to watch and lsiten to the credits..i dig the song aswell

  • I also love the Album this came on. YES ROCKS! Anybody know where I can DL some songs from The Ladder Album? I bought the cassette at the time and it got destroyed by a hungry tape deck :-(

  • the credits always make me laugh thanks starbucks and god. something i would put in my credits.

  • "You are here" always sends a shiver down my spine.

  • Yeah, how on earth do people figure it out. that huge white dot looks like our galaxy, not the sun :S

  • Lovely.

  • ... do you by chance have the credits to homeworld cataclysm? lol the entire series has such good music...

  • I didn't find the cataclysm one as good as the origional home world credits.

  • I don't know why but YES wasnt well recieved at first for doing the credits,(at least thats what I was reading at the time) so they didnt bother for any talent on the next game, just in-house music. Though when I talk to fans today they appreciate the song and its impactfulness. Cataclysm's story line is more B movie than the first one, BUT both games had superb gameplay, Cataclysm edging out because of refinement. Both should be made into Movies or at least a mini series much like "Dune" was.

  • brings tears to my eyes that i have to remember that they canceled this series... :(

  • dude, sins of a solar empire!! Different company but same team!!!! have a look

  • That was the team for Cataclysm. This is the original Homeworld.

  • May be the Cataclysm team but Sins of a Solar Empire is fun as heck. (Beta Tester) Plus, Cataclysm was a great game in it's own right but nothing compares to the original.

  • Still my favorite series. Most of my doodles during class resemble the concept art in this video (btw this is "Homeworld (The Ladder)" by YES)

  • This music fits right into Homeworld. As I listen to it, I can't help but think of Homeworld, Dune, and other epic SciFi in their vein.

  • The greatest thing about sierra is that they try to make their games more movie like on their own than other games that are actually based on movies are!

  • Ah, Yes is great. Prog rock fits perfectly with big space opera meta-narrative style science fiction. Similarly, I would love to see something like Jethro Tull worked into a game with a fantasy setting.

  • Ah memories. 8 years of water under the bridge for me and it still rocks!

  • i just stumbled on the yes song on my hard drive, and i think to myself "hope someone put the credits on youtube!" and then: "aaaaahhhh". nice move there torpov. awesome song and awesome credits

  • This shit FUCKING ROCKS!

  • That was great. I love this game. Thanks for putting it in here.

  • A perfect outro giving the right message and pushing up the emotion right after the finale of the game.

  • friggin sweet man. this video is made out of win!

  • I find the other Yes songs. They are fantastic!

  • Go find as many as you can. NAOW! :D Really, in terms of pure talent, Yes is one of the best bands out there. Glad you like! :D

  • Thank you for putting up the video. I always liked that song. I remember playing the game and looking for the song everywhere, but at the time the internet wasn't quite what it is today. :)

  • Glad all of you like it so much. :D

  • best game ever + best band ever = <3

  • <3 Torpov

  • I play the credits more than I play the game!!! Fantastic stuff, great band....I just knew somebody would've posted this up.

  • Well that was why I did post it, because I didn't see it up here.

  • GREAT i love you THX!! +1

  • Beautiful. After I beat this game, the credits made it all that sweeter...

  • I never get tired of watching it on the game, it's beautiful.

  • I've seen that many times on my own copy of the game and never get tired of watching it, it's beatiful.
