Is Homefront being over-looked?

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!

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.

Neckbear5609d ago

If anything, the Battle Points remind me of Counter Strike's cash and the variety on vehicles reminds me of Battlefield.

So, yeah, it's everything except a CoD "clone", by the looks of it.

Not like I'm interested in YET ANOTHER MODERN-DAY COMPETITIVE FIRST PERSON SHOOTER BOOYAH!

Looks nice, might be looking into this in the future.

Jaws0075604d ago

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.

Jaws0075604d ago

Battlefield 3, list goes on. Proly missed a shit load too

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing20d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit20d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing20d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9220d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
