THQ reveals the minimum and recommended system specifications for
Homefront, KAOS Studios' upcoming military shooter set during an invasion of the USA. On a related note,
Computer and Video Games has word from KAOS that the game should offer about an eight-hour solo campaign. "Some of them will get through it in eight hours, some of them will take longer than eight hours. There's a varying level of challenge depending on the skill of the player," designer Zach Wilson told them. "We've honestly seen players take more than an entire day play through the single-player campaign, sitting down and not doing anything else." Both sets of system specs follow.
Minimum Specification
- Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7
- Intel Pentium Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz or AMD Athlon X2 2.8GHz.
- 2 GB RAM
- Shader Model 3.0 graphics card with 256MB of memory
- NVIDIA GeForce 7900GS or ATI Radeon 1900XT
- 10GB of free hard drive space
Recommended
- Windows Vista or Windows 7
- Quad Core 2 GHz+ CPU
- 2 GB RAM
- NVidia GeForce 260 or ATI Radeon 4850
- 10 GB of free hard drive space

Yes, because every video game would be better if it was longer, whether it was good, mediocre, or shitty. Forget pacing, forget fatigue or that sense of being "done", we can simply measure how good a game is by how long it lasts.
Was Portal too short? No, it was just long enough not to overstay its welcome. It's refreshing to see a game that knocks off the repetition, keeps throwing new stuff at the player without settling into any one scenario for too long, and stops trying to appease people with attitudes like yours. |
