Life wasn't easy for the colonists at Jamestown. Just two years after John Smith founded the settlement in Virginia, only 60 of the more than 200 colonists survived a mass food shortage that came to be known as the Starving Times.

I pretty much clicked on this to ensure that Homeworld was included and sure enough it is. I approve.
I never played Homeworld but I'm gonna check it out.....maybe Good ol Games has it for dirt cheap!
Damn it I want to play Homeworld. Why hasn't Relic got it up on a digital distribution service like Steam?!
