What Happened to Homefront?

In 2011 THQ released a first-person shooter by the name of  "Homefront" the concept was an invasion of foreign soldiers on U.S. land. This game through you into the position of a civilian that was caught in the middle of this war. However once this game was released nothing was said of it again. Most recently however while browsing Gamestop's list of games I noticed "Homefront: The Revolution." The first installment was an okay game the graphics and mechanics were clunky but not impossible to deal with. Seeing THQ release a sequel for this game will be a breathe of fresh air if they can pull it off correctly using the next-gen tools at their disposal.
