Kaos haven’t been shy in touting Half-Life 2 as their inspiration. Of course they haven’t – it’s a convenient way of saying: “This is the best thing ever,” while maintaining a sense of plausible modesty. The parallels are all lined up, jostling for your attention. Mute protagonist, on-rails introduction, strong, humane female star and careful dramatic pacing – from ratcheted combat set pieces, to cutscene-free exposition. Check, check, a hundred times check.

Last week game dev Steve Thornton took to Twitter to ask: fellow devs, have you ever slipped something into a game you're working on that's just for you? The replies are well worth a read.
Deep Silver and Humble Bundle are currently offering the first Homefront game for free. This offer will last for the next 48 hours, so be sure to visit its Humble Bundle page in order to acquire your free copy.
get it! the single player is excellent and intense and the MP is pretty fun, too.
Ehh, PS4 needs these deals too, or consoles in general we always get discounts rarely free stuff that's REALLY free (games with gold / psplus isn't free)
Yeah its nice, Just sign up and add them to your steam. even f you dont own a gaming PC, you might one day.
I want this
I'm pretty damn excited about it, too. It has plenty of potential, and it looks like it will deliver!
gameplay looks pretty average.. we'll see.
but only for single player. what was sad is thq already confirming that Hf2 is under development i mean release the first game and show us its great
if this game has the same kind of atmosphere as metro 2033 where the world is so grim and stuff than we could be in for a huge game
hoping for the best can't wait to try it out hopefully there will be a demo for online beta or something
It might have a good story!
