No, it's just a 360 exclusive map, every 360 version gets it.

Gamestop gives you 2 gun unlocks, Best Buy gives you camo colors I believe and a headset. Not sure of any other preorder deals.

I only order from Amazon now regardless of preorder deals. It's a $10 off anything with amazon with preorder. Got $20 with KZ3...adds up and I get free games.

Don't care about Gun Unlocks...part of the fun is unlocking stuff.

PSM3 Review - 83

Homefront's single-player campaign is five hours long, according to the latest review in PSM3 magazine.

Last week Official PlayStation Magazine Italy delivered its verdict on THQ's and Kaos Studios' upcoming shooter, awarding it an impressive 9/10 score.

This week PSM3 has put the FPS through its paces and given it a score of 83% in its six-page review.

And despite the campaign's length being on the short side, the mag says it doesn't feel it's a major problem:

"That short, short length of the main story may seem like a major sticking point, but it isn't as significant as you might fear," it says. "Homefront is relentlessly brutal and constantly puts you in new, unusual and memorable scenarios, varying the pace to keep things interesting."

PSM3 admits it was left wanting more at the end, "but not because we felt that the story was lacking or that we hadn't been playing for long enough - we were just keen to keep playing".

Multiplayer also fared well, with PSM3 praising guns that "really come into their own" and a battle point system ensures that games "rarely feel one-sided".

Homefront is already off to a good start thanks to record pre-order numbers for publisher THQ.

Do you have to preorder the 360 version from gamestop or something dumb like that to get this map, or just 360?

And for those of you wanting to wait til BF3...enjoy the next 7 months waiting. I think I'll get a sleeper game and play it.

I still want to play more BFBC2. If Homefront is as good as that one, I can pick it up when I have time for it.

As far as deals, best one I saw for Homefront is at Kmart. You get a free $20 XBLA or PSN card and 10K rewards points (equals $10 for a future Kmart purchase)

I can never have enough good FPS's. All I really play right now is sports and FPS's.

If I didnt have a TV and old PC monitor that I traded in at Best-buy where they give you $10 in store credit per item then I definately would have jumped on the K-Mart deal!!

Re: Homefront (360/PS3)

This game has a lot of nice PC exclusives. If I hadn't talked my Xbox friends into getting this for 360, I would be PCing it. Nonetheless, I can't believe there isn't more hype for this game around here. I think it looks great.

So is this a pre-order deal? I didn't even know that K-Mart did pre-orders. I may have to go there then. In my area the Gamespot Clerks are so pushy, I refuse to pre-order anything else from them.

No pre-order required for the Kmart deals. Just walk in. Only problem I had there was on NBA 2K11 - they got it in a day late - but it was worth saving $20 on my next game.

I was just coming to post this as well. Not sure how true or not this is but according to some people posting on this vid that this perticular game wasnt a full 16v16.

I do like the battle commander gametype though where you will have people assigned to take you out depending on your threat level. I also like that if you are the marked person they at least give you some buffs to try and stay alive. I really cant wait til next Tuesday. Not sure if our BB is doing a midnight release or not.

Oh yeah, the Show will hold me over. I'm done with KZ3 and since I'm on vacation, I'm looking for another game to play in combination with the Show. Fight Night Champion was fun, but I finished the story mode.

Re: Homefront (360/PS3)

This game wasn't even on my radar a month ago, and now I'm stoked for it. Was gonna get Crysis, but may only just get this since I'm addicted to KZ3 too and The Show.
