I've heard and seen articles of Homefront here and there, but only really recently saw a whole lot with it which was sparked by the commercial. Is this game being over-looked? I know 2011 has a lot of crazy games coming out, but for some reason this game has me very interested and recently took my most anticipated list.
Ever since I saw the commercial I've been digging up videos, previews, and dev diaries. I'm simply in awe. I mean c'mon, helicopters, tanks, and the coolest thing I think--recon drones! The game looks beautiful, smooth, and guess what COD whiners...DEDICATED SERVERS!
I think if this game is executed well it could be the most under-rated game of 2011 and could possibly be an unlikely COD or Battlefield rival or even, might I say, killer. (I know I'll be hated and get disagree hell for that one)
I could be falsely hyped up, I could be mistaken and wrong but the game has an awesome story that hits close to home if you live in the US. The story could very well happen, which could make for an immersive and scary campaign.
I may have been out of the loop and this game is being hyped up, but not sure how it got under my radar. So far 2011 is rockin' with the first 3 months each having an FPS that I will be purchasing:
January - Modern Combat (Another game floating under peoples radars that may be decent, especially for the price)
February - Killzone 3
March - Homefront
What are your guys thoughts on Homefront? Do you think it will be the most under-rated, under-looked, under-hyped game of 2011? A sleeper hit? Or do you think it'll fail miserably, and not live up to the small expectations it has? Let me know!
In celebration of the upcoming game between the Giants and Cardinals at Rickwood Field, MLB The Show 24 has announced a brand new Storyline launching on June 20. This Storyline honors Willie Mays, who began his career in the Negro Leagues playing for the Black Barons, whose home field was Rickwood.
The Final Shape is jam packed with outstanding content, it's perhaps the closest Destiny has come to feeling like vintage, Halo era Bungie.
The Rocket Knight Adventures: Re-Sparked collection is a great way to play three classic titles that mostly hold up to this day.
I don't have high hopes for Homefront. KAOS Studios last game, Frontlines, was an ok Battlefield clone, and now Homefront looks to be an ok CoD clone.
Looks nice, might be looking into this in the future.
To many other shooters coming out; socom, crysis 2, bulletstorm, gears 3, uncharted 3, killzone 3, resistance 3, etc. etc. yeah no shit it's being overlooked. Plus the yearly call of dooty.
