I don't understand all the hype for this game, it just looks like another Bad Company to me. I might rent it later on when I'm done with Dragon Age 2. 

Humm. I don't think it looks too bad.
Not great, but not crap.
 
Of course, I don't know how it feels like to play it so it might be total garbage for all I know but based on what I've seen of the multiplayer it might be fun to pick up when it's not full price. 
If people are still playing it then :S

I'm kind of bummed out that Homefront (apparently) isn't living up to the potential I thought it had.  I thought the story sounded interesting, if nothing else.  Still waiting to see Alex's (or Jeff's?) review, but things don't sound great right now.

A lot of in game advertising, but I guess it is to make it seem more like real life, which is the kind I actually like, instead of generic things. Also Hooters of all things? 
 
Also it bugs me that all the Koreans use American equipment and not their own. Why didn't we blow it up before letting them use it?

Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing Review: 12/10

 
Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing is a phenomenal racer. Instead of worrying about crashing into other cars or structures, you GO THROUGH THEM! Furthermore, fuck actual driving skill. In Big Rigs, you can win a race by driving backwords! Did I forget to mention that you will always win because the AI racer will never move from the start position?
 
If you want an accessible racing game that doesn't shit on you with useless stuff like "physics" and "realism" like Forza does, then buy Big Rigs: Over the Road racing today! Also, since you never lose, it promotes euphoric feelings and cures AIDS! GET THIS GAME NOW!!!!!!! "

I'm calling 2 stars.

So far, I've enjoyed my time with the game. Is it as good as some of the other shooters out there? No. But it's trying something unique and different with the story, and the multiplayer has been pretty fun so far. 
 
Plus, I always try to support new IPs when they come out, especially if they deserve it. This seems like a game that, given the opportunity, could fix handful of tiny problems that add up and prevent it from being a great game.

The metacrtic scores dropped after the embargo lifted....

@DonPixel. 
 
Do you think the game only had a big impact because its a "It could happen" And its based in the U.S?  
 
 
Also are you lookin out for Crysis 2?

One of the regulars on Garnett Lee's Weekend Confirmed really liked what he played of the game.  That was in a podcast just a couple of week's ago (#49 I think).  The game is written by the guy who wrote Red Dawn so if you have no stomach for that jingoism, then you're probably not going to like Homefront's premise.  I remind you, Red Dawn might be considered a kitschy satire today, but it wasn't back in 1984 in the midst of the Cold War and with Reagan in the White House.   
 
I'll wait for some more reviews to arrive before I make a decision.   Such as the one on Joystiq which describes it as a "brain-dead, dull and frankly pretty lousy final product".
