I am picking this up today, as I have been waiting for awhile. I'm pretty excited I just hope it doesn't fail like Medal of Honor did.

GF sent it out yesterday. I'm always sceptical of new shooters but we'll see.

That backstory is nuts....interesting.

Hemlawk · 03-15-2011, 11:06 AM

Looks good, I MIGHT get it on PC.

*Mindz* · 03-15-2011, 11:16 AM

I'll wait to rent it.

Brokinarrow · 03-15-2011, 03:59 PM

But that can be just as miss leading as the cover art on a video game box

Thoughts? Reviews? I want to know if I should buy it or not.

I played some of the campaign last night and it was very well thought out. The gameplay was really intense. great guns you can choose from but you run out of ammo really fast but you can pick up extra from dead Koreans. It's very addicting but just like other games I will more than likely beat this within the next day or so.

The multiplayer I had a few issues with. My friend and I would get in a lobby and whoever was hosting kept getting stuck at the loading screen so they need to patch that. Of course you will have issues when a game first comes out, especially if it's a shooter. Happens every time. BUT. when i played by myself it was really fun. The maps are pretty big. The gun choice is great and it gives you a huge variety of attachments for your gun. A BUNCH OF EM!!!!! I would say the multiplayer is a mix between Battlefield and Medal of Honor.

In conclusion, I think it's a great game. The campaign gets you emotionally involved and leaves you wanting more. When they fix the multiplayer it will be a hell of a lot better than playing black ops. If you want a game to hold you over untill battlefield 3 I would pick this up or wait for a game called Brink, which i believe is set for release in mid April but not really sure. Go to youtube and type in homefront multiplayer and you'll see some videos that people have posted of their experience. You can somewhat judge for yourself. Enjoy and if you do pick it up let me know!!!

Brokinarrow · 03-16-2011, 07:58 AM

Do they have vehicles in multiplayer at all?

baumy2eagle · 03-16-2011, 08:26 AM

oh yea, helicopters, a couple types of tanks, a humvee, and drone. You use your points you collect throughout a round and save up those points to purchase by pushing either up or down on the directional pad. it's a good way to earn a vehicle instead of some 10 year old always taking the vehicle and being stupid lol

v6sonoma · 03-16-2011, 10:03 AM

I heard single player was super short. Like 5 hours.
