Homefront

Another trailer.

This game looks so...I don't even know how to describe it. Gritty? Dark? An atmosphere of hopelessness?

All those thoughts entered my mind.

it says that it's by the writter who wrote Red Dawn... one of my all time fav films!

Should be good the development team behind it are the ones who did the excellent Desert Combat Mod for Battlefield 1942.

I'm looking forward to this. I'll be bored of black ops by then so a different game is welcome.

Pretty awesome video, if only the boring Gamespot presenter wasn't in it

Hmmmmm,that Battle Commander thing sounds quite interesting.

Hmm I'd felt previously that this was just going to be a MW clone but I'm intrigued now after seeing some of the new stuff. Agree definitely see a HL2 thing there in the SP and that Gamespot MP video...looks interesting!

Will be keeping an eye on this one.

i have heard great things about this "homefront" Maybe it will get me off fifa 11 abit

Had a look at the gametrailers preview there and I'll be getting this for it's multiplayer, looks pretty damn good.

finite · 22 Jan 2011 at 10:56

Concept is good, but I think the execution will fail a bit.

sc(+)pe · 22 Jan 2011 at 11:10

Ooh just saw on SentUAMessage that the multiplayer will be on dedicated servers. Amped up my anticipation for the game even more.

OriginalJonty · 23 Feb 2011 at 11:30

More detailed hands on preview.

The more I read about this game, the more I think it could be a game changer when it comes to story telling in gaming as a whole.

Meh, looks really, really average to me.

Same, nothing in those videos that hasn't been seen before, and the stabbing animation/way the enemies react to being melee'd is terrible.

I was really looking forward to this till i read a preview on IGN stating that the controls are quite poor. I hope they improve them before the final game as i would really like to give this a go. The MP looks like it could be really good.

Tom84 · 23 Feb 2011 at 15:13

I've always viewed this as a pretty generic FPS tbh, not much that hasn't been seen and done before imo

dannyjo22 · 23 Feb 2011 at 15:17

I did laugh at the video on the dashboard when they said a battle in the american suburbs of America hadn't been done before. I guess they never played Modern Warfare.

It looked ok.

I find the premise is a bit of a stretch, but it's a game that I may check out if it's well reviewed. Maybe a rental.

I like how in Japan they're removing all references to North Korea and Kim Jong Il. Just making it nod and wink "You know who".

The marketing is stepping up:

biron_w · 4 Mar 2011 at 10:09

I've just pre-ordered this. Found a site where it's £32.85.
Was debating this or Crysis 2 and I went for this as I think crysis 2 MP will get boring very quickly.

Tom84 · 4 Mar 2011 at 12:21

What's the console of choice for this one then? Decided I'll be getting Crysis 2 on the 360 due to what's being said about the PS3 version, can't see much being wrote about this though
