THQ: CoD-level success still possible for Homefront
Homefront’s 2.6 million opening pitch may not have quite been the home run THQ was looking for, but it’s nothing to scoff at either. Well, unless you’re Call of Duty, in which case you’ve earned the right to take a sip of your incredibly fine wine and chortle at whatever numbers you please. THQ’s Brian Farrell, however, doesn’t think his game’s lost a battle or a war. After all, he explained, even Call of Duty wasn’t always an 800 lb industry gorilla.
