There is the sequel to Homefront. It’s a bit different gameplay wise but it’s the same world. It does have some jank though and I haven’t tried it on Linux. Frankly I forgot about the series and I might actually scoop them both up to replay on the spring sale. Only a few dollars each.
I may pick up the newer Homefront. It sounded different, but it's old enough I can probably grab it on sale for peanuts.
No issues running with max graphics on a laptop with a 20xx series card, though it started as such a tiny window I could barely read the menu to make it full screen. Same deal on the desktop and over steamplay.
It definitely had that early 2000s vibe, but I actually prefer the controls over many modern games. Nowadays games are like "press E to sneak", "press E to kill the guard", "press E to climb to safety", "press E really quick to overpower the attacker".
My favorite part is "Do you want to exit to Windows?" Windows. Yes, that's definitely what I'm playing this on. :-P /s
