Good Game Get! Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon

I haven’t played the original game and I know that this isn’t even made by the same team, but something shines about this budget title.

It’s the multiplayer.

The game uses pure split-screen couch co-op that is exactly the same as the single player campaign, which can be a rare things these days. EDF: IA also succeeds at having fun and engaging gameplay along with a pretty robust class and leveling up system.

While all this may sound generic and while I may not have too much to really say about the game - what is most important to me is the fact that I can play it with my girlfriend.

We love games and we love playing them together, and the trend from couch multiplayer to single player online gaming is unfortunately here to stay. I don’t really play online games though, and would much rather be playing with someone on the couch next to me, and that may sound purist or whatever but man if that isn’t how I feel.

Words of advice for the game; don’t pay more than thirty dollars for it, and don’t play it alone.
