Earth Defense Force X

As promised here is another video of Earth Defense Force X, this time with enemies a tad more dangerous than a giant ant. I must admit I'm totally taken by surprise by how much fun this game can be, it's like a reminder of what mindlessly fun games can be even with a small budget.

I've received Earth Defense Force X a few weeks ago now, and immediately gave it a quick run. I soon quit playing the game in disgust and never had the courage to put it in my 360 again for some video recording. Since my friend Prune was coming today I asked him to play the game and after some fiddling with the controls it turns out the game was actually pretty fun, if still incredibly cheap in term of graphics and animation. A game I would never recommend at full price, but cheaper it's quite decent. If you guys ask me to nicely I'll record some footage from more advanced levels with more interesting enemies.

D3 released five sweet screenshots of Earth Defense Forces X, last instalment of an excellent PS2 action series. The game is available in Japan since last week, and the impressions from the people who imported it are very good. Hopefully, with the US version planned to hit the shelves in march 07, we can hope an Euro release date to be announced quickly.

D3 updated the official Earth Defense Force 3 site with a brand new trailer along with a TV ad. Looks like a lot of mindless fun!

D3 has updated the Earth Defense Force X web site with this new trailer, that I've of course captured and converted to something less annoying that flash streaming. Looks like a lot of fun!

Thanks to japanese ITmedia site here are some new images of Oneechanbara vorteX and Earth Defense Force 3, as already mentioned both games will be published by D3, 14th of December in Japan.

Here is the last video from the TGS, and this honor goes to the very nice Earth Defense 3 showing some solo and coop gameplay. I'd really like to see what these developers could do with a big budget.

New installment of the cult PS2 series is here at TGS, and here is the first clip we got from it. Unfortunelately, the guy playing is really having a hard time with his pad. But it should help you to wait untill the developers's presentation tomorrow, which should be a lot more interesting.

Already earning cult status on PS2, EDF franchise will be coming to japanese Xbox360 this winter in a shape of Earth Defense Force X; as always in this game you'll be protecting earth from giant insects and aliens, this time with better graphics and hopefully online co-op.
