1/8/2023 0 Comments Homefront the revolution modsIn the case of Homefront, the contribution of Milius seems to have been overstated as well. Despite any nostalgia for the film and its cast, both are thoroughly mediocre. Both play on America’s fears of a communistic/dictatorial invasion and both obviously feel the influence of Milius. In the film, the enemy is Russian in the game, North Korea. The connection the latter film, which he also directed, is obvious, as both involve an America which had been captured and occupied by enemy forces. The game’s only true call to fame was the writing credit attributed to John Milius, screenwriter of the original Conan the Barbarian, Apocalypse Now, a number of Dirty Harry films, and, perhaps most relevant to this game series, Red Dawn. Having played through the title on the PS3 platform shortly after its release, I’d say a 7 was very generous. In the case of newer refined guidelines here at OnlySP, a 7 is solidly in the good category (see my recent DOOM review). Depending on the outlet this means average to good. The scores for Homefront average out to about a 7 in most cases. This is an interesting case of how the public and the outlets remember games that received a lot of hype but didn’t meet expectations. Most people remember the game as being terrible and having received low scores. Homefront was released in 2011 from THQ and developer Kaos Studios.
