Review of Homefront

Homefront (2011 Video Game)
8/10
No COD but pretty damn good.
19 March 2011
Firstly, contrary to the other review, it is not an Invasion by North Korea but a unified Korea aided and abetted by many anti-American nations. And contrary to the supposed goof, the enemy took Hawaii on the way to the States and hence are not an ocean away and have a very good more than mid-way supply base.

Secondly, it's an action game and meant to be fun - hell, I like been Rambo!. How someone can review anything without ever having seen/played it should disqualify their opinion at once.

The game is violent and would be upsetting if you don't know what's coming. It is fast paced and the story is full and intense as should be considering it is written by the writers of Apocalypse Now and Red Dawn - excellent credentials for a game of this genre and they do not disappoint.

Online Multiplay is massive and varied with the chance to pilot drones, hummers, tanks and a plethora of other vehicles making it significantly different to Call of Duty which is my preferred FPS but overall, this is a superb game which should please fans of the game type.

If I have one small criticism it is that one of the main characters sounds very much like a South Parks characters dad and whenever I hear him, i can't get that out of my mind!
