So maybe the game wasn't too great, but the good news is that it has already been discounted! Amazon and Walmart are listing it at $42 new, and considering that this is only the second day of release, that's a pretty impressive savings. I haven't played it myself, but Homefront seemed like it was at least okay. Such a quick price cut is a little concerning, though if you were already thinking about checking it out, this might be reason enough to pick it up.

I wonder how long it will take before it goes to 20. 

This is a 10 dollar purchase for me.

" I wonder how long it will take before it goes to 20.  "

This is apparently a one day deal kind of thing, the price hasn't dropped yet.

Yeah, got it yesterday, gonna finish it later on and then I'll return it tomorrow I guess.

makes me kind of mad. if i waited 1 extra day i would have saved 18 dollars. but i at least got $15 game credit to use on crysis 2

So that makes me think its not a sale... "

I would hate to see THQ fall because they have many great titles coming out.

" @shivermetimbers:  I really doubt that they would fall apart after just one game. It was a pretty big blow against them, but you don't cut and run when you still have investments in games that haven't seen market yet unless things go really sideways. "

The stockholders don't really care bout the reviews, they only care about the money they get.  Homefront may not be spectacular but it will definitely sell well regardless because the first person shooter market is so huge and it's being released at a time where people tired of black ops or bad company 2 will want something different to play while they wait for the next big release.  It's Medal of Honor 2010 syndrome, people say it's a bust but it really wasn't when it sold a few million copies.

Yeah, just wait a month and it will drop to a lot less than 40. "

It's hard to not feel ripped the hell off when the game drops $20 a day after release when I can't even play it as advertised due to THQ's incompetence. The SP is mediocre, and I haven't even really had a chance to play the MP on the 360 due to their server problems. I already accepted taking a loss with this shit and threw it up on ebay. 
 
fuck you THQ.

I just played it for 10 minutes and stuck it back into its Gamefly envelope. It's definitely not worth $42

I paid $65 on launch, worth every penny to me i absolutely love the SP, kinda pissed it dropped 20+ bucks day after launch? yes.. but hopefully enough people did buy it day 1 and buy this to warrant a sequel or for THQ to do more games like this.
 
i dig it more than the COD series, SP could of been longer though.

I preordered, if you're getting it for SP I wouldn't say it's worth it.  MP otherwise, I'm digging.  It seems like an older online FPS...I guess Delta Force Black Hawk Down mixed with modern FPS elements.  Battle Points system is pretty neat, I like saving for an APC/Apache and tearing up the place.  I'd say wait for a sale though, I mainly got it for MP and Metro 2033, like below 40$.  I hope for a sequel though, it'd be nice to see them improve.

Just wondering, for those hoping for a sequel, I'm assuming that it doesn't end with the problem of Korea invading the US, right? It would be really lame if we won, but then they invade and take over again.

I was just at Blockbuster and they only had like 6 areas for Homefront disks, and all of them were taken.

Like Frontlines before it, Homefront has a fun multiplayer that'll tide people over until Crysis 2 is released.
 
They'll probably release a patch to add more players to servers like they did with Frontlines too...
