In support of the scheduled March 15th release of the highly anticipated video game Homefront, THQ proudly presents the "Defend Your Homefront" rally, taking place on Wednesday, March 2nd at the Yerba Buena Gardens in San Francisco from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m.
The event will give fans an exclusive, in-depth look at the speculative fiction fueled by Homefront's narrative. Scheduled guest speaker Dr. William Forstchen, a published author and leading expert on Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) blasts, will discuss the little known, yet extremely dangerous threat posed by such an attack. Also scheduled to address the crowd is Tae Kim, a foreign relations expert and former CIA Officer who will present Homefront’s fictional timeline and examine how the United States has come to suffer an oppressive occupation by a nuclear armed Greater Korean Republic in the year 2027. The event is scheduled to conclude with a free live performance by The Dillinger Escape Plan, a leading metalcore band.
"As one of the most strategically important cities to the Greater Korean Republic in Homefront, San Francisco is the perfect place for fans to participate in our rally," said Tyrone Miller, Director Public Relations, THQ. "We look forward to sharing the future history detailed in Homefront while educating and entertaining fans with thought provoking presentations and an energetic performance from The Dillinger Escape Plan."
