Seen@GDC: Homefront's free lunch
THQ's literal Homefront marketing machine, the "Korean taco"-peddling Pyongyang Express, has made its scheduled appearance at GDC 2011. Its "Subsidized Good Food for a Better America" is being (orderly) distributed free of charge -- although consuming it is, technically, eating away at freedom.
THQ redeploying North Korean BBQ trucks for glorious Homefront promo
THQ is deploying the Pyongyang Express, its fleet of North Korean-inspired food trucks, once again from February 22 through March 21 in Los Angeles and San Francisco. Homefront marketing like this is all fun and games until some food truck promotion sets off a nuclear incident. In the spirit of the franchise motto of "Subsidized Good Food for a Better America," the trucks will sell tacos, burritos and rice bowls for a couple bucks. If you're a local, track the trucks by following the PyongyangBBQ Twitter. Oh yeah, and if you want to actually play Homefront early, they'll have the game available to demo at the truck on select days. For those heading to the Game Developers Conference, a truck will apparently be stationed near San Francisco's Moscone Center from February 28 until March 4. Let us know how the food is!
