Fortnite vs Homefront: The Revolution
Fortnite
Fortnite is a unique tower-defense-like co-op game where players will be given a limited amount of time to make a coordinated effort to gather resources like metal, brick, wood and nuts and bolts, from their surroundings, build a base to defend from, and set up traps to protect said base. Oh and don't forget to upgrade the base whenever's possible and make sure to reinforce your passive defenses before the next wave of enemies arrives!Set in a world where most of humanity was somehow turned by a freak and mystical storm into mindless creatures called Husks, this game will have you fight for the last of humanity while playing as the world's last remaining heroes. You'll get to choose from one of four classes, namely the Outlander, Soldier, Constructor, and Ninja, each of which has their own unique roles to play in the team.
Fortnite may have lost some of its shine in the limelight due to the immense success of its battle royale add-on game mode, Fortnite Battle Royale, but this doesn't at all diminish the exciting multiplayer gameplay it has to offer. This is definitely a game to watch... and to play once it's officially released - hopefully as a free-to-play.
If you would like to jump into the game a bit earlier than the masses, you can purchase the early access bundle which will not only get you access to the game, but also some nice little, and exclusive, extras.
Homefront: The Revolution
Homefront: The Revolution is the latest installment in the Homefront game series and this time around, the game features an open-world set in the war-torn suburbs of Philadelphia. In this game, you'll be expected to lead your own Resistance cell in an occupied and oppressed USA, and hopefully, through your team's guerilla actions, bring hope to the people and possibly give rise to a revolution. Despite the odds, you'll need to build bases and safe-houses for your Resistance fighters, recruit more revolutionaries to your cause, craft a variety of guerilla tools as well as capture an arsenal of better weapons from the enemy. Although there isn't a multiplayer mode in this game, you can play cooperatively with your friends to assemble a resistance that will earn the respect and adoration of other revolutionaries.Homefront: The Revolution may start out looking like a cut scene-laden game, but once you've gotten through the first 2 hours, you'll find that the game isn't at all that bad. It may not be comparable some of the most epic open world shooters out there, but it's still a pretty decent game, especially if you like the idea of building up a resistance cell rather than being the one stomping out the resistance.
