What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
May 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $1.99. It has been discounted 89 times in the 11 years tracked here, typically at 80 percent off, with about 5 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 5 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 5 weeks.
It is pricier than 78 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 87 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 ($19.99, scores 18) beats it on value, while it beats theHunter Classic (scores 4).
Players rate it 61 percent positive over its lifetime, and the last 30 days run 71 percent. It is aging into a better game than its average suggests. Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 12 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written July 2023 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 32 percent of the 1,770 reviews written there were positive, against 61 percent overall, and those are 16 percent of everything written about it.

What players say
Underrated game. Not gonna pretend I experienced this at launch, but there's a lot of things to adore in this FPS despite it being ye olde Ubisoft checklist game. Cryengine pretty much enabled the devs to take you to vertically expansive, mini-open areas where you can cause the usual ubi activities (camps, of course!) with the main objective of taking over districts, with some 'radiant' side stuff and collecathon in...
Por el precio de un refresco tienes Timesplitters 2, que está bastante bien y una copia de Far Cry 3 en entornos urbanos con una moral en bancarrota y unos diálogos de absoluta vergüenza ajena.
Even years after release the game is still a buggy mess. Don't buy unless you REALLY have nothing else to play and this is on sale.
Player reviews from Steam: the most helpful all-time, plus the newest that clear the same quality bar, with the hours each player had put in when they wrote it. The mix of Recommended and Not recommended follows the game's Steam ratio. Rotates daily. Opinions are theirs.

Homefront®: The Revolution scores 8/100 on the BANG Score (a skip). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/223100/homefront-the-revolutionThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 16, price as of Sep 24.
