Just yesterday completed Homefront the Revolution. Yellow zones were easily best moments in the game it had more Deus Ex vibe than Far Cry. Made me desire to see immersive sim where you play as agent of resistance in occupied town, something like Saboteur but with Deus Ex depth and variety of play styles and gadgets

The stealth, parkour and sabotage work you had to do in the yellow zones was definitely some of the most fun I had in the game for sure. Frustratingly hard at times but it was always a really nice change of pace from the chaos of the red zones - both gameplay styles working very well for the game.

The campaign design in Frontlines is honestly what every other shooter at the time should have aspired to improve upon with its more open and freeform way of approaching objectives and scenarios. So sad they went down the heavily scripted route for the original Homefront when their previous game had so much potential. The only game I can think of that took a similar approach is Medal of Honour Airborne - thankfully that's also a great little game.

Homefront Revolution, to me, is one of the most underrated games you can get for under 10$ The game was like 80% off a month after coming out, it was an incredible deal. Edit: I would like to add, that it's true that the story for homefront didn't really make sense. However I always thought it would work better if there was a touch of sci-fi (especially in revolutions). They should have had it that the Korean people discovered some sort of Alien tech that they used to have a quick jump in technology. this way it would explain how they first conquered the US and how they maintained a technological edge in Revolutions.

I'm glad you covered this series, because it had so much potential. One of the problems of the first game is that a lot of the interesting narrative elements and backstory were in the tie-in novel: The Voice of Freedom. It laid out in great detail how Korea united under one flag and invaded: in a nutshell, a fictional Kim rises to power and renounces the dictatorships of North Korea's past, while opening up the country and eventually unifying. Then he launches a satellite under the guise of providing free broadband over the US, but it ends up being a massive EMP that cripples most of America's defenses, allowing a west coast invasion. The US military battles the Koreans but are eventually pushed back to the Mississippi River, where a line is drawn between the occupied western United States and the free eastern side. It was a really interesting setup that wasn't properly implemented into the story, but at least the game tried. Homefront: the Revolution, on the other hand....not so much.

Back then they were still mostly a contract developer and Homefront' 1's lack of commercial success is, alongside the similarly insufficient release of The Darkness 2, what led them to make Warframe on their own.

Wouldn't say there was ever a "rise" with this series, more just a fall. However I found enjoyment in the first game, not so much the second.

Original Homefront backstory: The U.S. weakens over a 15 year period while a war between Saudi Arabia and Iran devastates the global oil economy, followed by pandemic originating from East Asia further destabilizing the the U.S., priming them to be invaded by a Korea who has slowly annexed more and more of Asia (albeit with questionable success including somehow reuniting with South Korea peacefully). Homefront The Revolution: Yo dawg, what if Steve Jobs was North Korean and he locked the U.S. out of all his tech b/c they defaulted on their debt yo

Absdolutely loved Homefront and the multiplayer experience. I was really disappointed they didn't build on the foundation of the first one with Revolution. Damn never knew they developed Frontlines Fuel of War as well, another great game I loved to play.

I thought to have a fall you'd have to rise first. I wouldn't say Homefront ever had a rise.

Best part about this game was being able to play dilute Timesplitters 2. "What if *existing dictatorship* ruled and Hero McAmerican'mun saved the day?" was a tired concept _when_ this game released.

I recently played Homefront: The Revolution as I bought it in an Xbox sale. It was actually quite good and better than I expected it to be.

I think Homefront: The Revolution is a great game now. Here's my short review from Steam: Extremely underrated game as of 2018. It might have horrible launch 2 years ago but it's nothing I've seen in the reviews. Played free weekend and decided to buy it later. It took me almost 30 hours to finish but I'm kind of completionist (even though I didn't go for everything). +possibly the most impressive visuals I've ever seen (CryEngine) +original setting (Philadelphia) +runs smoothly +good gunplay +interesing weapons/mods/throwables +Far Cry mixed with Dying Light type of gameplay -few bug but nothing horrible -waypoints were sometime confusing -later in the game I was getting random stutter (dropping frames for a second like crazy)

Homefront 1 was an Under-appreciated Gem. While Homefront The Revolution was just Trash its always on sale on both PlayStation and Xbox. Hopefully a new Studio reboots it back to its old Glory Days!

One moment that struck and has stuck with me the most from the original, was during the opening where you watch the two parents executed via firing squad. Followed with their toddler son running up to and crying over their corpses. I understood it was a game, but something about hearing that child’s cries and screams of pure emotional anguish filled me with such hatred and rage, I remember needing to pause the game and take a moment to collect myself.

Even so many years later, I still think about that scene from time to time especially whenever I think about Homefront. So many games shy away from having children involved in traumatic situations (at most we'll only see references of their existence), so it ends up being a genuinely shocking scene by giving it enough time to play out without lingering long enough for the player to be able to "fix" their predicament, you just have to ride away while watching that child scramble to his parents as the soldiers callously walk away. All these years later and I still felt a chill run through me re-watching that scene during this video.
