vgZero: '11 days have passed since release date of Kaos Studio's and THQ's Homefront. A first person shooter set in a bleak futuristic war torn America, overrun by Korean insurgents fighting in honor of their illustrious Kim Jong-il-esque crackpot leader. Homefront was to be a multiplayer benchmark, a game for people to experience full frontal warfare with 32 people simultaneously battling for control and ultimate supremacy. How does it hold up to the hype?'
Alex & Mike talk Biomutant, a game from Experiment 101/THQ Nordiq you likely have not heard of. While the AAA side of the industry tends to homogenization and imitative, cinematic presentation, “AA” games remain creative and innovative in 2021. Drawing on inspirations as varied as Dark Souls, third person shooters & kung fu cinema, Biomutant is Ratchet & Clank on acid, developed by a team of 20 people.
Jack writes: "Back in March 2011, the first-person action shooter Homefront arrived on the Xbox 360 from THQ, along with a storm of publicity which included a really cool live-action trailer"
Remember THQ? They published such games as Avatar: The Last Airbender, Darksiders I & II, the Destroy All Humans series, Homefront, the Red Faction series, and Saint's Row 1-3. Almost as famous as their games were the THQ marketing stunts, including a Golden Wii.
