Sarcastic Gamer examines the awful Homefront campaign to pinpoint where it went wrong.
From the article: "Homefront was a game I had eagerly anticipated since 2009. I really had heard nothing but good things about the game. Frontlines: Fuel of War and a well made mod of Battlefield 1942, called Desert Strike, were two of KAOS Studios previous shooters. Both were well received and I thought that the Frontlines single player was fairly fun, although it was overshadowed by the multiplayer. In any event, I had high hopes for Homefront. After playing through the single player, I think that “awful” may be an understatement.
How bad is this game? Lets pile on, after the jump."

Last week game dev Steve Thornton took to Twitter to ask: fellow devs, have you ever slipped something into a game you're working on that's just for you? The replies are well worth a read.
Deep Silver and Humble Bundle are currently offering the first Homefront game for free. This offer will last for the next 48 hours, so be sure to visit its Humble Bundle page in order to acquire your free copy.
get it! the single player is excellent and intense and the MP is pretty fun, too.
Ehh, PS4 needs these deals too, or consoles in general we always get discounts rarely free stuff that's REALLY free (games with gold / psplus isn't free)
Because they knew MP is what sells that type of game to the majority of players so they focused on that.
How bad?
MS likes it,Some reviewers give it 8 even 8.5
It should be good.
but both of us know it's overrated.
while, it's an awful game, and i actually agree with every point brought up in the article...
this piece was very poorly written, sorry to say.
Because it's short. It's not actually awful.
I really enjoyed the multiplayer. The single player was definitely its down fall. To me it just felt strange like it was... how do I say this- uh cheap. The single player didn't have the best quality, It definitely has potential but they need to do something that separates it from the crowd.
