Deus Ex vs Homefront
Deus Ex
Deus Ex is the first game in the Deus Ex game series which has risen to fame and had gained a massive somewhat-cult following due to its second sequel. The game is incredibly old-school and hence, its graphics may put a lot of players off, but the game offers an immersively detailed storyline that is set in a rather chaotic year of 2052. You even get to play as a super-cool cyborg who has many amazing augments, skills and weapons at his disposal. The game is not all shoot and kill though. It also has many ways for you to avoid bloody confrontation, which frankly will definitely delight players who enjoy having alternative approaches to an encounter.Unlike many other games that adds in fantastical elements to enhance its gameplay, Deus Ex is a game that emphasize on the possible problems and issues that a futuristic human world may experience. It deals in conspiracy and the human nature rather than fantasy and that's what made the game incredibly unique back in the day (and this statement is also relevant until today).
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.
