Homefront should be compared to Half-Life 2 rather than Modern Warfare 2, according to Kaos Studios head Dave Votypka.
When asked in an interview about the inevitable comparisons between Homefront and rival FPS series Call of Duty, Votypka highlighted fundamental differences:
"When you look at the artwork for Homefront you can see that the America in [Modern Warfare 2] is very different to ours," he told PSM3 magazine.
"It's empty. There's no humanity, no civilians, just a bunch of soldiers fighting with a backdrop of America."
"Homefront is much more than that. It's about experiencing the occupation from a combat side and humanitarian side."
"Half-Life 2 was one of our ispirations for the game, especially when it comes to telling an engaging story and having a deeper world than most shooters," he continued.
"We want to take the America you know and show it twisted by the Korean occupation. That kind of thing wasn't in Modern Warfare 2 - It was in Half Life 2 to an extent - and it's a big focus for us."
