An alien race that happens to look exactly like giant insects and moves around using ant-hills—yet somehow still manages to be totally unrelated to the insects of earth—has started invading the planet in the only logical place, Detroit. Kill them! Kill them all! Don't stop killing them until your thumbs are ready to fall off. That's literally the extent of the story.The dialogue is so bad it feels like you're watching a B movie. You will constantly get updates from HQ over your com, but the person doing the voice work of your dispatcher sounds completely awkward.Once you realize you are better off just ignoring the story, you begin to see that there is actually some depth to the gameplay system here. Before you go off on your bug-killing rampage, you have to choose between one of four armor classes. Each armor class has its own spread of five or six different weapons to choose from, and it can equip two of them at a time. Each weapon category also has tiers of weapons that unlock as you level up by killing bugs and completing missions, and each weapon tier has multiple weapons in it that can be purchased from credits you acquire in the same way. All in all, there are about 300 weapons to unlock and customize your armors with. And there's variety, too. There are homing rockets for people with bad aim, explosive shotguns for people who like close range combat, assault rifles with clips longer than my small intestine, and sniper rifles for people who honestly don't get the concept of "blow up everything around you.That doesn't even begin to take into account the special abilities of each armor class. You basically have an MP bar that constantly regenerates, which you spend on nifty abilities that might as well be magic. Defensive armor classes can cause huge shockwaves that destroy everything around them, while offensive classes increase their damage. Also—and this is very important—there is a jet pack class that basically gives you full aerial mobility to rain death upon your insect enemies from above.you have infinite ammo. The only thing preventing you from laying volley after volley of bullets into your enemies is each gun's reload time. Second, each gun has an active reload function that you can activate with decent timing, pretty much making reload time a non-issue. Third, you have a lot of health, even if you play a weaker class, and health packs drop plentifully, even on the hard difficulties. It's nearly impossible to die in this game, and that feels great.The game is absolutely infested with faults outside of its repetitive gameplay.the visual aesthetic of the game just keeps me coming back. Spiders crumble buildings all around me as I pump an infinite number of rockets into them. Huge bipedal wasp things fire plasma cannons at innocent civilians as they scream and run away. Explosive ticks latch themselves on to me only to get blown up by my suit's shockwave first. It's just the kind of B-movie in a game.Read full review
Not the best looking game at all but you will have a lot of fun with it, it's fun blowing up ants.

Well there is no much I can say about this game since is somehow not very well know but let me tell you this if you decide to pick up this game you will not regret it as long as you play with friends you can also play solo campaign but is rather boring just playing by yourself so play ot with friends one more thing just because is a PS3 game do no expect like mesmerizing graphics because this game has not like outstanding graphics but that will not affect at all the overall experience of the game since is a nice game.
Item came on time and in great condition. ^_^ I got this game, as I was a fan of the game tiled "Earth Defense Force 2017". Supposedly there were others that were Japan only releases back on the ps2. I wonder how those are? This game is fun, be it playing online, or with a friend next to you. You have 4 types of soldiers to choose from and level up. My favorite though is the JET soldier. Yeah, you don't get as much health, but the idea of being able to fly and hover in the air for a bit, adds so much awesomeness to it in my opinion. Can't wait to see what I can do once I max it's level out. ^_^ A great game to get, for yourself, if you have a friend over o play online.
I love this game!
