Dawn of War 2 is flipping awesome. I highly recommend everyone here at least give it a whirl, you will not be disappointed!

It's really just a reskin of Company of Heroes, the gameplay is almost identical just a different setting. I've played both and I still think CoH is the better game, but I guess it depends on what kind of style you're into.

You're way off WiredKnight. It's nothing like CoH "reskinned". The RPG elements and multiplayer are much deeper than CoH.

Oh that's true, I forgot about that. Don't get me wrong, they're both great, but I when I played DoW2, I couldn't help but feel like I had played it before.

Why isn't the homeworld series on steam with these relic titles?

Was wondering the same thing.

I recently played the first one and liked it.

Homeworld 1 and 2 are owned by Sierra, which merged into Activision and you know the rest.

Even then, THQ bought the license for Homeworld back in 2007 so a third game is likely.

I wish my laptop could play games like DoW 2.

Damn you integrated graphics card!

I wish WWII games like Company of Heroes would focus on a larger scale of battle, like say operational scale that would allow for things like formations and macromanagement.

"There is Only War" is a generous free patch, not DLC. Please don't blur the lines between updates more than they have been already.

Expansions: Substantial (generally boxed) content.
DLC: Smaller, often poor value-for-money updates.
Patches: Free, often necessary, somtimes generous additions to the game.

The only one blurring the lines here is you. DLC = Downloadable Content, it has nothing to do with how big it is or how much it costs.

Its deceptive wording. "There is only war" is free to anyone that bought DoW 2 at any point in time, from any source.

Retail is still cheaper for me, even after this discount.

Sweet, I've been thinking about getting Dawn of War 2 for a while, this clinches it.
