Homefront is a new FPS game from THQ. It looks a lot like Call of Duty, to be honest. Like Call of Duty, Homefront will offer Xbox Live members first access to the future DLC for the game. Major Nelson has also announced that at launch the XBOX 360 version will come with an exclusive map called “Suburbs.” THQ partnering up with Microsoft to bring us these maps first is pretty awesome and I'm looking forward to it.

In 2009, Microsoft came out with a new game called 1 vs 100. This game was based on the hit game show on TV. The revolutionary thing about this game is that people all over the world could play the game like it was real life, they could even win prizes. At scheduled times this game would let you play as the main player or the “mob.” Unfortunately the game was cancelled later due to lack of support.
