Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon- PS3

The Japanese B-movie style of previously released games in the series has been replaced with a slightly more serious tone. Don't be fooled though, this is still Earth Defense Force inside and out; and its heart is in the right place.

The year after a championship can be tricky. You may be the team to \r\nbeat, but you still have a long road ahead of you as you try to \r\nrecapture that magic. Last year, EA came out with a great college \r\nfootball product that captured the feeling...
