I remember I greatly enjoyed the Homeworld series back in the early 2000s, and would like to play the games again.
Homeworld
Homeworld: Cataclysm
Homeworld 2
However, I'm concerned that they may not be compatible with my newer computer. Do these games work well under Windows 7 64-bit, or are there significant compatibility issues? Are there any workarounds to enable compatibility, which I should be generally aware of?
I'm looking to have some assurance to compatibility prior to re-purchasing the games.

All three games are compatible with Windows 7 x64. There are several common issues you may encounter especially with Cataclysm and to a lesser extent Homeworld 1 but all have workarounds and/or patches. In my experience Homeworld 2 will probably work out of the box without any modifications.
I have documented a full list of steps to follow to get each game running on Windows 7, in the following posts on my site:
I hope that helps!
