I know it's kinda old news, but here's an interesting-looking title:

www.o-r-b.com

It's supposed to be one of the most MODable space games out there, and it's graphics r0xor!

But, being a die-hard Homeworld lover and veteran, I must say that it's almost exactly like HW, except for new ships and [slightly] improved graphics.
Also, look down in the right-hand corner of this shot:
Is it just me, or does it say RU (Resource Units) and SU (Support Units)?
Also, it's got trails, which basically should be a Homeworld trademark, because that's what makes Homeworld (and HW:C), well, Homeworld!

"looking at the pic"
well, one thing is sure, we won't need a registry hack to have high res maps in this game :p

looks hella beautiful, but it could use 3d engine glows damnit!

edit: oh... the ships even have search lights... never heard about that game before, but now I'm interested...

Signed up :) (Accidental leaks eh? :p)
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman
