Sins is still under production, Eve has had years to refine their engine. As it stands right now, I think Sins looks better, especially since it'll be displaying so much more on the screen than Eve ever will. Eve will be undergoing a graphical upgrade soon, however, but you won't be seeing hundreds of fighters, hundreds of cruisers, and hundreds of capital ships on the screen, as well as planets, spacial phenomona, and space structures as you will in Sins.

I dont think 3d/space RTS's will really work that well until we have true 3d displays and interface devices.

Ive been craving another homeworld 2 type game for a looong time now.. hopefully this is it!
And I always thought the ads for Homeworld were about what a pretty game it was. Maybe I should had read the fine print which explained there was more to this game than just a pretty face. Perhaps Homeworld 2 should had put HUGE text to explain the finer points of the game rather than those beautiful screenshots of the game in those ads, certainly cheaper that way.
When Homeworld first came out, it was the first game offering such a glimpse into having a real space armada. The motherships you used to build your army with were absolutely amazing and a lot of the battles were very cool looking. Homeworld 2 was a bit of 'more of the same' but the alien ships were very beautiful in it.

Sins looks pretty badass.
" Fuel an expanding empire with the valuable resources discovered on planets. Develop each world by building ground-based and orbital structures including cities and defense platforms.
Each class of planet has a distribution of appropriate terrain that ranges from ice-fields to molten-rock, and deserts to oceans. Each type of terrain provides players with unique bonuses and strategic opportunities.
Interact with planets in diverse ways such as conquering enemy worlds by peacefully shifting allegiance or forcefully raining death from orbit.
Planets exert gravity on nearby ships and structures and orbit about their stars for an evolving battlefield."
Cool. 🙂
They also fully endorse modding the engine for non profit purposes, providing a suite of mod tools with the game when it launches. Should make for some interestng mods in addition to the usual Star Wars and Star Trek fare. I'd like to see a Stargate mod too, would be cool to try my hand at battling the Ori at the Supergate. 🙂
