Starship Troopers was a walk in the park compared to Earth Defense Force 5.
ESTNN Writes: "“EDF! EDF!”, my friend and I cheer into the microphones late at night as hordes of ants, wasps, and frogs with laserguns threaten to overrun our position. The screen is littered with the remains of their comrades, making it hard to see how many they are.
In moments like these, I remember why I love video games, when a friend and I have at it with the same glee we had before we became bitter adults. Even if those games are just about shooting bugs with bigger and bigger guns.
In short: Earth Defense Force 5 is excellent, and you should grab someone dear to you to shoot some bugs."
It really is. The dialog is complete hilarity. Every person is just so dumb and nonsensical. 5/5
Because blowing up UFO's never gets old.
Satisfying visual feedback, so many games have lost this principle and it's sad. Almost everything you do has an interesting and Satisfying reaction, making everything physics based is the key to that, watching everything fly, crumble, and react to your weapons, and slowly increasing you weapons capabilities to do so to an absurd degree, just keeps ramping up the satisfaction of how good it feels to play this game.
"The video game publisher PQube and game developer SANDLOT are today super excited and pleased to announce that the physical edition of "Earth Defense Force 5" is now available physically in EU and NA for the PS4." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
This looks so awesome. Unfortunately, it will probably be a year after its release in Japan until we see it here. If at all. Not sure how the last games performed saleswise, last time out. I love them though, they mix that 80s arcade feel with modern tech. This looks like the engine finally got updated with new lighting, speedtree and possibly physically based rendering.
Looking at other videos on the site, it seems that it will release in Japan with English subtitles. This may be the first game Ive ever imported(at least, via the Japanese Playstation Store).
Very nice
Game looks like a free to play game.

I would've liked some graphical updates by now, this looks like the very first game that game out 10 years ago. Still looks fun though.
