The single player is pretty grim in that theres just no freedom for you do anything, even climbing up ladders and the like requires you to wait on the other people you're with to go up first and then wait again for it to come up saying 'press x to climb ladder'.. I really like the multiplayer though in terms of gameplay and I think the Battle Points system is a nice alternative. However if you're expecting great graphics don't get it, also overall I doubt I'd pay £40 to get the game either. It's definitely not going to be the new major FPS like COD, I'd say it's more of a stop gap to fill time till Battlefield 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but this is their first shot at it, and it's not bad for a first effort, I'd say wait for Homefront 2 it should be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, as I said I really like the gameplay so there is the basis for a more complete game the next time round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernLights Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Sigh, bought this the other week for £25. What a waste of money I really should have know not to buy it when I saw it had "ZOO 9/10" plastered on the front of the box, never a good sign but I still bought it. Might force myself to complete the terrible single player but the 2nd rate graphics, completely linear gameplay and amazingly poor AI will probably put me off. Shame as the idea for the storyline was promising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So 5 years later a new Homefront game is almost here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homefront:_The_Revolution I love open world games so I'm hopeful this one will be worth playing. The original was such a disappointment but it is a new team involved in the development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionel hutz Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Looks Good. But so did the first game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernLights Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Looks Good. But so did the first game. Not sure if its just me or this game seems to have flown under the radar. I do recall now reading ages and ages ago about how the rights had been bought for the game but I had completely forgotten all about until this afternoon when I read a Tweet from Angry Joe saying he was off to an event to see the game.

Yeah, I think there was an issue with funding and so development was halted. Trailer II: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul-r-cfc Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Got the original from lovefilm when it first came out after a pretty brilliant looking trailer. Pretty dross - think I rattled through it in about 5 hours. No surprises that the sequel is also shite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
