Nexus: The Jupiter Incident may have a dinky name, but its promise is what intrigues us. We're Homeworld fools, and any game that claims to have a piece of the Homeworld magic will guarantee a peek. This preview of a one level demo that the author snagged, is filled with the kind of excitement that you hope is warranted. Sure, it's easy to find lofty claims on the WWW but the run-down of the game dynamics sounds intriguing. You don't have direct control of individual ships in your fleet, as you do in the Homeworld series, but you can mount attacks with groups, which adds a tactical element that could be fun. The interface gets a couple of strikes against it, but if the game is as good as this guy says it is, we may be willing to forgive it.
