SynopsisHome used to be where the heart was. America used to be free. Now, home is nothing but a bleak landscape of walled towns and abandoned suburbs, where high school stadiums have become detention centers and shopping malls shelter armored attack vehicles. Fear and despair have crept into the United States that you knew and loved. Worldwide conflict, dwindling resources and economic crisis have taken their toll; and now, in 2027, the savage, nuclear-armed Greater Korean Republic clenches the US in a brutal occupation. But the enemy forgot one little thing about the USA: they may have seized our land and weakened our state, but no one can weaken the spirit of the American people. Not since George Washington led the patriots in the Revolutionary War has America fought a battle so vital to the freedom of the nation and so close to the hearts of the people. Not since then have we had to band together to protect our Homefront. Take the front lines alongside the colorful characters of the Resistance as you employ daring guerrilla tactics, commandeer military vehicles and unleash epic warfare across sprawling battlefields with first-person sharpshooting action. The heart-pounding, hair-raising exhilaration of the struggle springs to life when you take the fight online and experience multiplayer infantry, helicopter and drone battles the likes of which you've never seen. Enter a ghost town where the residents have been relocated to nearby labor camps in the "Suburb" Xbox 360-exclusive multiplayer map. Featuring empty houses and buildings, this infantry- and drone-only map offers extensive cover locations while rooftops and tree houses make for ideal sniper locations. Mask your fear, take your weapon in hand and bear the title "American" with pride: this is the call to save your Homefront.

When initially hearing about this game, and seeing the trailer, I was excited. They had the ability and opportunity to combine the best of Call of Duty and BF:Bad Company. However, they missed the mark in a big way. The graphics seemed like they were from early 2000's and the script lacked any real feeling and was way to corny. The multiplayer was also a big letdown. As soon as you spawn into a map, you either get sniped from across the map, killed by a predator drone, hit by a hellfire missile, or killed by a helicopter... and there's nothing you can do about it. You have minimal points, and it's impossible to gain any if you get killed repeatedly upon spawning.
The premise of the game was good... and I think many people were excited for it. However, it turned out to be a pretty big flop in the end. I beat it and "played" a few games of multiplayer, then traded it in the next day before the trade value went down.
What's great about it: The idea and plot.
What's not so great: Overall character dialogue script, multiplayer, minimal length of campaign...

I don't believe so. Granted, it was a bit better, however, it was also a bit of a letdown. I was looking forward to this CD with great anticipation. And after hearing the sample releases, including "Leaderless and Self Enlisted", I was even more excited. Sad to say, the entire CD does not follow the same method.
It was still a decent CD, but nothing near what was expected, or anticipated from such a great band. Buy it only after hearing samples of the songs first to make your own judgment.
What's great about it: Some new, hard-hitting stuff...

This hard-hitting album stays true to Bullet for my Valentine's form, while adding new style. Long time fan, or new fan, you won't be disappointed with this one!

Definately a game worth buying. IW improved on mere perfection from COD: Modern Warfare. If you're thinking twice about getting it... DON'T! Get it! I hate spending so much for games, but it's definately worth the money.
I still wish there was a zombies mini-game, but I guess you can't have it all :)
What's great about it: Multiplayer, new weapons, perks
What's not so great: Storyline play a little short/easy, no party chat in most multiplayer modes

There are only a few good comedies that can make me laugh over and over again after repeatedly watching, and this is one of them. It's just good, genuine humor. Andy Samberg really gets into character as well as some of the others.
A true "must have" for any comedy fans!
What's great about it: Everything... cast, plot, scripts... so many funny quotes!

"Controller" is MS's best album to date. It's heavy-hitting, and the vocals are cutting and powerful. This is the album that initially got me interested and informative about MS.
I hope their future albums take similar form to "Controller"!

"Messengers" was a true work of art. However, ABR has outdone themselves yet again with "Constellations" This album is increased perfection. It contains simlilar style from "Messengers", but at the same time offering new hard-hitting style and intense riffs. This album is truly amazing.
What's great about it: Everything... hard-hitting, thrashing, improvment upon perfection
