For those who care and haven't seen these yet. Also for those who want them on their computers but are to lazy to scan them. Here you go.

At first look those aren;t much better than the first one and not at all impressive.

Indeed Barley any Diffrence far as I can see

too bad my computer is too slow. 266 mhz can run nothing nowadays

If you guys see no difference, you are crazy. The meshes are several times more detailed, as are the textures.

Those graphics are considerably better than the ones in HW1...

yeah, they are more detailed after squinting a bit... as long as it runs good and is a good game though I really couldn't care how purrty the ships look

Looks nice.

I'm just not seeing it. I can't see any significant improvements over the first game, maybe it's the less than stellar textures and the general flat lookingness of the ships.

Prehaps, But then if I have to squint to tell the diffrence somthings wrong

Imperium Galactica 3 looks set to own Homeworld 2 in the graphical stakes.

Now if only I could figure out how to play the fucking demo.

The texture maps are more detailed, the models are as well, there's the whole "ion cannon cutting ships" effect...

From the screenshots should I assume that HW 2 is going to be an exact remake of HW 1 plotwise but with better graphics?

I don't think so. The only info I've ever heard on HW2's plot was years ago, back when it was on the chopping block. It's supposed to be set long, long after HW1 and Cataclysm. Relic's being airtight about their plot, as usual.
