Earth Defence Force 2017

[HotFish]

I would actually like to play this game: EDF 2017 - it's right up my street and not a bad price considering.

Epic Battles Against Hordes of Alien Invaders - Players will face off against a wide variety of attackers ranging from giant ants and spiders to robots and monsters standing more than 20 stories tall. With non-stop swarms of literally hundreds of enemies on screen at once, these chaotic battles are like nothing you have ever played.

A Mighty Arsenal of Weapons of Mass Destruction - You will be armed to the teeth with 7 types of destructive weapons with more than 150 variations - assault rifles, rocket launchers, flamethrowers, grenades and more.

More than 50 Missions - Engage the enemy in more than 50 all-out battles. Battle alongside your EDF squad through city streets, underground caves, coastal zones and more to repel the alien attackers on all fronts.

Military Vehicles at your Command - Take control of battle tanks, armoured mechs, attack helicopters and hover bikes to help complete your mission.

No Man Fights Alone - Though the odds may seem impossible, you are not alone. Fighting by your side are your AI controlled EDF team mates. This crew of soldiers will fearlessly charge into battle and assist you throughout the game.

eh, i saw some gameplay, an i dont know they that changed, but it looked a little kiddy for me.

[phatmuther]

Hmm looks pretty crappy like your average Jap game, and average Jap achievements.

[Raff]

I dunno, looks like a bit of cheap fun, nothing wrong with that. A bit of tongue-in-cheek b-movie shooting is exactly what I need after GRAW2. It's only £20 on gameplay so I doubt I'll be able to resist!

Too kiddy? You sound like a fun bloke!;)

[Raff]

This came from Gameplay today, it's mega fun! :D

[Truplaya83]

looks good, trailer looks good, and it look slike fun/possible rental game for me.

Grumbler? 15 posts for a staff member? Am i missing something, or have you been somewhere?

[Tobes]

He's a new staff member that hasn't been active in the forums. Pretty much sums it up.

[Blaze Lord]

Sounds like another writer picked up from the blogosphere.

Lol. but I read on the achieve360points forum that completing all the levels for the achievements takes ages and gets really boring :unsure:

[JGClifton]

Who cares? Play games for fun...

[Raff]

Sounds like another writer picked up from the blogosphere.

Blogging sucks.:p


Yeah the achievements are pretty crapply done, you're not going to get any for hours and I doubt many people will get them all. Doesn't bother me though, achievements should never be a reason to not like a game.

[Daniel 89]

Play games for fun...

And for gamerscore...;)

[JGClifton]

And what does gamerscore get you exactly? not alot...

[Blaze Lord]

Respect, of course.

[Daniel 89]

And what does gamerscore get you exactly?

Self satisfaction

[Tomshi]

Giant spiders.... No am a ---- getting that

[JGClifton]

Self satisfaction

I wouldn't get alot of satisfaction from completing Open Season....

[Bongzilla]

I find it incredible that anyone worth a damn could glean any self-satisfaction from getting 1000 points in a game that they are playing purely for points. Surely their lives aren't that empty that they can't think of something more productive/fun to do?

[Tobes]

Don't just don't. Everyone has learned to just not say anything now. Your new so I will let you off. Daniel just plays for points. End of discussion. Don't even reply to this. lol

[rydo-uk]

Giant spiders.... No am a ---- getting that

Wahhahaah

And yeah, games are for fun not GS :).

[Truplaya83]

Can i edit that

**Daniel just plays CRAP GAMES OR EASY GAMES for points**

[Tobes]

Look just end it now. There is no point. Your just going to get Daniel started and that means reported posts and mods wanting to kill themselves. Get back on topic now.

[Truplaya83]

Anyway, earth Defence Force looks good, but not worth my hard earned cash. ill wait for another free rental voucher to come through the leterbox and ill give it a gander. Looks like lost planet but more low budget.

I have to say, I strongly disagree with Art's review. I don't remember ever smiling so much playing a game, the gameplay and the humour were just spot on. It was such a welcome change from all the melodramatic, testosterone soaked stuff we're usualy served on the 360. The technical shortcomings never got in the way of the game, and I knew exactly what I was getting when I paid £20 (not ~£30, rrp is £25). It's a budget game, and it's one of the best budget games I've ever played. I honestly would have given it an 8 or a 9.

Good god no it doesnt deserve an 8 or 9. Its not trying to be funny, thats a Japanese game trying to be serious, and thats what got spewed out.

[Raff]

I'm not even going to bother challenging that. If you can't even recognise some very unsubtle tongue-in-cheek humour, what's the point?

[phatmuther]

Thats your bog standard Jap game, bad script, awful voice acting, crap storyline, its not supposed to be tounge-in-cheek, thats a normal game. Its certainly not selling itself as a Destroy All Humans type game is it. No, its not.

[Raff]

Oh jesus christ..
