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.
Battle the aliens that do not come in peace...but in a mother ship.
Teamxbox brings you new movies and 10 screenshots of this upcoming japanese title.
Earth Defense Force 2017 lands players on the front lines of an onslaught of extraterrestrial invaders, with non-stop swarms of hundreds of enemies on screen at once. Gamers aren't alone. Not only do they have more than 150 weapon variations to choose from-including assault rifles, rocket launchers and flamethrowers-but they have the support of AI-controlled Earth Defense Force teammates who battle beside them throughout the game.
all they need to do is fix some of the animations, some collision detection problems and they'd have a decent $40 game.
Perhaps the most on screen action ever in a game!
Ive been hearing about this game and they better bring it to the U.S and not just for Japan. Its supposed to be killer and from what ive seen so far it looks to be just one of those games you have to own!
Its nice to see that Microsoft is finally stepping up in the Japanese market with games they actually want! Blue Dragon is out, this game is about to come out, and Lost Planet is a month away! Microsoft is definatly stepping up their game! Good Job!
I thought I kept hearing from the Sony camp that this much stuff couldn't happen onscreen at once on the 360.
I dont see whats going on? Looks like a real big mess if you ask me.
Who is this marketed towards?
Looks like Saints Row with a different theme.
Its a 360 game so expect big disappoint, lag, a patch, and of course this should make a few more consoles die.
Not impressed. This is coming out AFTER gears?
I never said it looked the greatest, although some of the metal reflections looked nice. I said that people were saying that much action couldn't happen on the 360 at once. Graphics wise it looks about the same as Warhawk. The main character could use a little work though. Obviously not every game is going to look as good as Gears of War because not every studio, especially small Japanese studios, have the money to put into the projects.
Maybe fun, but it looks a little cheap.
I have the original on SNES and I thought it was cool. I didn't know they made more.
