Not the disaster many had anticipated, but also fundamentally flawed.

Despite the laudable patchwork by Dambuster Studios, it still can’t save Homefront: The Revolution from being a disappointing affair

Homefront: The Revolution throws players into a near future dystopia where a catastrophic events have brought the United States to its knees and enabled the Korean People's Army forces to impose a brutal military occupation.

Homefront: The Revolution could have been something better with its weapon customization and unique environments, but it fails on the technical front.

While full of potential with a robust weapons system, Homefront: The Revolution falters in its execution with widespread technical glitches and repetitive missions that make this one hard to recommend.

Homefront: The Revolution has a handful of good ideas, and some of them are actually executed well. But none of that matters when the game constantly runs at 25 FPS (PS4) and the gun controls are truly abysmal. The Revolution is a quasi-reboot to 2011’s Homefront, with developer Deep Silver Dambusters finally shipping out a title that has been handled by several studios. And it shows. Glitches and other performance problems are littered throughout an atmospheric but ugly Philadelphia as you take control of a Resistance fighter pushing back North Korean occupation. The narrative starts with a b...

Wow. I had heard all of the negative buzz surrounding Homefront – The Revolution upon its release but I figured that at least some of it must have been

With a story penned by Hollywood director and screenwriter John Milius, the original Homefront was an ambitious military shooter rendered mediocre by technical limitations, dated graphics, and a lack of distinguishing features.

Unfortunately, developer Dambuster Studios failed to slay Homefront's true enemy; an unending litany of glitches, A.I. failings, and per...

Homefront: The Revolution has bigger problems than its myriad of technical issues. Sure, the constant freezing of the game to save is jarring, and the game as a whole is largely unpolished, but even when everything works it just isn't captivating in any way. Pass this up.

The more challenging objectives, such as assaulting an enemy stronghold filled with well trained and well equipped soldiers, appear to offer more of a challenge on the surface but more often than not, they don't. You can run straight into the stronghold avoiding all the enemies, turn a wheel and claim it for the Resistance, resulting in all of the enemies disappearing without a trace.

Not quite a sequel to the first; Homefront: The Revolution serves as more of a reboot. The problem is… was anybody asking for one? Now,  I know I sound sour, but when I heard that this game was being made I actually was quite excited.
