I will develop a game called "Fall and Rise" only to hear the narrator say "this is the rise and fall of fall and rise".

Ah my greatest memory of Homefront, glitching into a door in campaign and falling through the world.

American Devs: “We want to make a game where China takes control of America.” Chinese Control of America: “No, I don’t think you will.”

The Rise and Fall of ''Army of Two'' would be cool to see.

There was a real dry spell in the early 2010's where there were very few PC FPS's that weren't COD. This was my replacement.

The narrator of these videos should narrate everything.

I swear to god, I've listened GVMERS' narration so many times, but I still can't get over the fact that every time I feel like I'm watching a National Geographic WW2 documentary.

The first homefronts multiplayer was AMAZING, shame about the second game :(

I was actually a big fan of their multiplayer.

Just yesterday completed Homefront the Revolution. Yellow zones were easily best moments in the game it had more Deus Ex vibe than Far Cry. Made me desire to see immersive sim where you play as agent of resistance in occupied town, something like Saboteur but with Deus Ex depth and variety of play styles and gadgets

I would love to see a rise and fall of the Red Faction series

"Swiftly dismissed the idea" Yeah, I wonder why.

Homefront and the resistance franchises were handled poorly :(

Imagine a company named Trauma being forced to relocate to Stockholm. I'd leave too.

Legend says this is Kim Jong Un's favorite game franchise.

The scene where the parents get executed in front of their child and then the kid starts crying...That hit hard

The First one was pretty intense, the secone one was more like "I want to much in too little time" thing. Stil, the concept is, to this day, very unique

We need a vid for Freedom Fighters. Still waiting for that sequel...

Man, if Homefront: The Revolution was actually finished and totally working as originally intended, it probably would have been a huge hit, and we'd probably be seeing a sequel releasing right about now, here in 2021 with next Gen consoles. There's some really cool ideas in the original concept for it, you can see what they were going for and how original and fresh it would have been.

Did i hear Frontline fuel of war? What a frigging gem that game was

I had so much hope for Homefront: The Revolution. Sadly, the best part was the arcade with Timesplitters 2.

I like how they did all that dancing around a villain in the story really centered around a big problem today in gaming and overall entertainment industry; pleasing the Chinese market. The wanted to avoid something unbelievable (which was more believable) by picking one of the most bizarre scenarios.

The first game is 100% a guilty pleasure of mine. The multiplayer was really underrated. Damn shame it got shutdown. Bought it not too long ago in a bargain bin for $2. Totally worth it

i have huge appreciation for the narrator. big fan

Homefront had one of the greatest intros of all time.

A documentary on Homefront is something I always wanted to see, honestly. Thank you. Homefront: The Revolution always felt like it could've been set in the Half-Life 2 universe with a little tinkering.

Really hope you cover the Section 8 series one day. Such a great series, that kinda vanished.

I was hyped as a teen when the first one dropped

I like Homefront. Never played the second one though. I still remember that opening scene on the bus. Compelling stuff. I gotta say I’m really tired of everyone being afraid of China though. On one hand chinas not scary enough to be the antagonists but on the other hand we’re actually scared of being banned from the country if we do that. Oh so China is scary. I see. Same thing happened with the Red Dawn remake. NK stood in for China, the original invaders, because people didn’t want China to take action against them. I’m waiting for someone to tell them to go pound sand

Got me missing fuel of war’s multiplayer Also crytech and their signature weapon customization

This channel is outstanding, dope respect for the choices of the games that got broadcasted here.

this channel is still seriously underrated

I miss Homefronts multiplayer. Gotta love and hate dedicated servers.

Dont ever stop this channel please. I know that times probably are rough but the world needs you!

Ironic how China was seen as not powerful enough ten years ago, how times have changed

Homefront? Never smashed the like button so fast lol so many great memories with the first game

The on the fly weapon customization was so cool! Also these documentaries are so well made, I’ve enjoyed them all

Glad to see this. Was starting to think the days of your longer documentaries may be over. Thank you. Love the original game, and have the sequel, but have never played it. However, Xbox Series X recently released 60FPS boost for the title, and I know the game was lambasted for a poor frame rate, so maybe now it's time to give it a whirl. Keep up the great work!

This channel is the only one that I consistently watch all the videos from. Good work and delivery (documentary) as usual.

Keep doing what you do GVMERS. this kind of quality made videos are a form of art.

I forgot about this game, underrated despite the short campaign

I actually really liked Honefront: The Revolution. It’s my second favourite Far Cry game (after Blood Dragon). Seriously though, while the story didn’t hit as hard as in the first game, the gameplay loop was far more entertaining and the gunplay far more enjoyable in Revolution. I got the game for $5 and I wouldn’t mind paying full price for it second time around. Granted, I played it only recently, so all major bugs have been fixed. Kudos to Dambuster Studios for not abandoning their game!

Oh my gosh... I love these documentary type style on video games!! Definitely a guilty pleasure to watch before bed!!

I only remember this game being 90% reduced in retail value by 2012 lol

Homefront Revolution, to me, is one of the most underrated games you can get for under 10$ The game was like 80% off a month after coming out, it was an incredible deal. Edit: I would like to add, that it's true that the story for homefront didn't really make sense. However I always thought it would work better if there was a touch of sci-fi (especially in revolutions). They should have had it that the Korean people discovered some sort of Alien tech that they used to have a quick jump in technology. this way it would explain how they first conquered the US and how they maintained a technological edge in Revolutions.

The multiplayer of the first homefront was amazing

Another great piece of video game history! Thanks a lot, guys. And congratulations

this truly is the best channel on youtube, I wish it had more content to enjoy

I so badly wish homefront and spec ops the line took off more than they did they were sooo good

It's kind of incredible how many franchises that shined through back in 2011 completely died or were ruined since

That is so good. The narration is top notch. I always enjoy.

I really appreciate your unique voice/tone, it's so easy to listen to 👍

Great production work! Can you do the High Moon Transformers games? War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron are underrated.

Spec-Ops: The Line was far more gripping and emotionally impactful than anything Homefront was trying to do.

Amazing content as usual guys! such a underated channel, criminal considering how many people love gaming!

This channel is awesome! So glad I found it! Also, I loved Homefront the revolution. Picked it up for £3 on an XB sale and it can be a really immersive FPS game.

My dad's favorite MP was on the first Homefront. RIP pops, cben830 if his buddies happen to see this video and, moreover, this comment. Y'all meant a lot to him in his gaming.

I played the alpha waaaay back on the 360 and absolutely loved their multiplayer. This game was awesome!

Another GREAT video. You guys are the best

You’ve come back with another banger.

Now that you’ve done Homefront, you have to do TimeSplitters!

I personally played the crap out of Homefront the revolution. I loved it, at least 60 hours into that game.

Love this channel and videos, keep em coming

i guess ill subscribe to this channel, Ive already watched like 3 of your videos and it brings me back to the memories of why doesnt this work anymore

I loved many THQ games as a kid, WWE Homefront Saints row I was so shocked when I saw that they got closed.

me: "30 minutes? what're they gonna do just play the story from the first game?!"

Great video! I’ve just discovered the channel a couple of weeks ago, and I’ve been going through the archives since! I’ve got a of story about _Homefront,_ even if I’ve never played it. If I paid attention right, the game was released in 2011. My wife and I used to shop at a certain GameStop location. It was a great store: my wife actually buys and plays more games than I do, but not only did the store manager know my wife’s tastes so well, he made sure to keep a new NIS published game available for her at all times, knowing that she’d be looking for it! He even got to understand me-introducing me to the _XCOM_ reimagined game, maybe one of my favorite games that I’ve played. But our favorite GameStop had suddenly closed down permanently with no notice at all, and one employee, when I later asked him about the story behind that closing intimated that the store manager who we liked so much was given a choice: either work at another GameStop as a part-time employee or walk. He walked. This would have been in 2012 or 2013- _XCOM_ for PS3 was released in 2012, and I think that’s the last game I bought at that store. And so, we shopped other, far lesser GameStops-at least for awhile.* At one of these, I noted the cover to _Homefront,_ and read the back of the box, and called the premise pure balderdash. I was and am something of a news junkie, and I didn’t believe there was any way in hell that its conventional military could be a threat to the US, and I said so. If you’re not convinced, check out this link to a 2014 article about the difference between North Korea and its neighbors. That country might have ballistic missiles these days, but its human cost is tremendous: www.nationalgeographic.com/pages/article/140226-north-korea-satellite-photos-darkness-energy Anyway, I must have made my opinion known too loudly, when the GameStop employee on duty at the time went a bit bat-nuts, trying to talk over me about how the game makers made a plausible case for North Korea being a major superpower, etc., etc… We walked out, having bought nothing. *About our last days dealing with latter-day GameStop: my wife, as I said, the more serious gamer of two of us, wasn’t taken seriously as a gamer because she was, you know, a girl-and we both skewed older than the evident usual GameStop customer; we were often asked what our kids were looking for instead of what we might’ve wanted! It got worse: one day a desperate salesperson truly chased my wife around the store, insisting my wife absolutely positively needed expert GameStop help! And I almost started fistfights with two belligerently pushy GameStop employees. We might not have been in a GameStop for at least five years…

stellar video as always

This game was something else. What creeped me out the most was when a few Korean soldiers shot this kids parents in front of him and hearing him cry shortly after during the bus ride at the start of the game. I was a young lad when I 1st started the game. The game was also very hard to play, even on easy.

I’d love to see a Rise & Fall of Mortal Kombat at some point, it’s a series that’s definitely had its ups & downs & I love your in depth analysis

Love your work, cheers.

i used to love playing this game then i lent it to a friend when i had no internet and never got it back, his dad played it 24/7

The DLC really redeemed the revolution in my opinion, i enjoyed the base game, but the dlc added a voice to the main character and from there i could actually connect and care for the main character and the revolution

I don't remember this game having a rise at all.

One thing I distinctly remember about Homefront was the sniping. Felt so good!

Love the channel. Doesn't appear that these have been done yet, but here would be a few suggestions on titles to document thru the channel: Gun, Kane & Lynch, syphon filter, true crime (I believe sleeping dogs is somewhat of a successor but still) and hell, a Rare game of your pick like Banjo or Conker

This game came so close to perfection, but never had a chance with COD and Battlefield in the same market. Such a shame.

The Multi-player was the best part of Homefront even if the story was short

Excellent episode guys. 👏

Another great video as always. Still waiting for the history of unreal tournament.

I’ll always remember the mission where you hide under all the bodies and then you get up out of it ready to wage war

Personally, I enjoyed Homefront: The Revolution a lot. If you get the game on sale with all the DLC, I would highly recommend it!

These videos are amazing

I love the original homefront game. Great video!

I actually really loved Homefront Revolution.

I look forward to the rise and fall of Army of two!!

I was waiting for this ☝️

Stellar piece as always, GVMERS! I've always wanted to play the said game, but as I've seen gameplay footage, it does look like a run-of-the-mill shoot em up FPS where you bullet rings hollow in a paper-thin plot. I'd like to make a suggestion on what you can cover on next as a retrospective: *_The Front Mission Series._* I know the franchise is mostly 70% Japan-only, but when a North American Release comes out, it's usually a magnificient hit, or an embarrassing miss. Cheers, and thanks for the content. Definitely keeps the boredom off nowadays.

I wish they never removed the mission where you protect a baby in a trash can. I wanted to leave it there

It's a shame how linear 6-8 shooters seem to be a thing of the past now.

So many dope videos dropping today,between this Muta,and ALBO my days spoken for 😂

Front lines fuels of war is one of those games you randomly play cause your bored one day and then you fall in love with it lol. Or at least I did, I remember it was one of the only games I had at my grandparents house and I forgot halo one weekend so I decided it was worth a shot and I loved the campaign, beat it countless times.

I remember in 8th grade being so hoped for the first game but feeling totally meh. The occupied America setting felt scary and real but the story was extremely short

Homefront was underrated. Yeah it was short and the story definitely ended on a cliff but the shooting was good, the graphics were solid, the sound design was well above average and the environments were highly detailed and well designed. Would love to see a proper sequel.

great video, you earned my subscribe !

Genuinely surprised there was no mention of the absolutely KILLER soundtrack featuring some amazing covers from top-tier metal bands.

I remember buying the homefront 2011 as a precursor to prep myself for battlefield 3

“China is America’s factory.” Exactly why we are in this pickle.

I've played through the campaign of Revolution, twice, and loved it!

Homefronts multiplayer mode was straight fire. Pure chaos with the kinda broken score streak system.
