From time to time (as often as I can) I will be posting info on upcoming games.
The first is Homeworld 2

Combining elements of real-time strategy and space combat, Homeworld 2
delivers the next evolutionary step in gameplay and technology.
Cinematic-quality graphics, special effects, rendered ships and an
innovative interface combine to create an immersive 3-D space combat
experience.
Totally New 3D Engine
An innovative 3D engine generates cinematic-quality graphics, stunning
special effects, and beautifully rendered ships. The sublime vistas and
otherworldly splendor of Homeworld 2 are in the award-winning tradition of
the original. In-game cinematics flow seamlessly in and out of gameplay as
players command their armada around eerily beautiful phenomena of deep
space, including giant asteroids, massive derelicts, gas clouds, and nebulae
light years across.
Steamlined Interface
A streamlined interface lets players take total control of their ships and
explore the universe. And all-new camera panning makes maneuvering fleets in
the thick of battle easier than ever. Zoom in to see objects in intricate
detail, zoom out to get a panoramic view, or rotate your view of deep space
a full 360 degrees.
Stunning Deep-Space Phenomena
In the dynamic 3D universe of Homeworld 2 the awe-inspiring phenomena of
deep space - giant asteroids, huge derelicts, murky gas clouds, and vast
nebulae - pulse with the energy that permeates the cosmos. These fully
interactive phenomena - some strategically helpful and others fraught with
danger - add another dimension to gameplay.
All-New Battle Fleets
Two all-new customizable battle fleets, each with unique capabilities and
spacecraft, enhance Homeworld 2's strategic complexity and tactical
flexibility. Players can now group ships in strike formations that move
together into combat. New ships such as the flak corvette and the marine
frigate offer innovative tactical choices, while capital ships have
subsystems like engines and weaponry that can be crippled while leaving the
ship ready for capture.
Multiplayer Mode
New multiplayer modes and features allow up to six players to wage war via a
LAN or over the Internet. Additional tools and modules enable the community
to develop new missions and mods.
