Counter-Strike: Source vs Homefront
Counter-Strike: Source
Counter-Strike: Source is the second installment in the incredibly popular MMOFPS franchise, Counter-Strike. Despite being a rather old game, Counter-Strike: Source still manages to hold its own in this day and age, with some even claming this game is so much better than the more recent Counter-Strike: Global Offensive or CS:GO. Unlike CS:GO, this game doesn't offer buyable skins and the most important thing - the community is definitely not as toxic as those you'd find in the CS:GO servers. Although the game modes can be rather limited, you can easily find some really good new ones in modded servers.So, if you're looking for the Counter-Strike experience without all the hate that most new players will get, this might be a good game to start.
Homefront
Homefront lets you join the Resistance that's fighting against the bitter, ruthless and overwhelming armies of the Greater Korea Republic for the freedom of an occupied USA using guerrilla tactics. Experience an explosive first-person shooter gameplay as well as immersive vehicular combat in addition to experiencing the compelling story of the devastating cost of war penned by renowned author John Milius through interactive cut scenes. The graphics in the Homefront is also very well-done, presenting a bleak-looking landscape of abandoned and ruined structures, shopping malls-turned-detention centers, and walled towns filled with zombie-like people who just shamble around while the invaders stood guard with their rifles at the ready. Interestingly, Homefront even provides players with a large-scaled multiplayer mode where armies of different sides clash in an epic combat, though there aren't enough players around to get a match going.So, although the multiplayer aspect of the game is literally dead, the gameplay might be a tad bit too linear (invisible walls and the like) and that there are some glitches and bugs, Homefront still has an amazing campaign that will see you fighting for the independence of the USA against its Greater Korea Republic oppressors. It is worth the purchase, especially if you can get it at a discount.
