Earth Defense Force 4 - The bugs are BACK!

"Anyone want some Viagra ?"

[^Katsu]

I've had it re-confirmed tonight that the front room system set-up for EDF is GO.

Another month... This is boiling my jizz.

Former EDF Soldier requires permission for EDF set-up & re-confirmation? Yet this is the only thing to boil his jizz? I bet he's scoring Viagra from Robster as I type!

Get back to posting lovey dovey pussy **** on Facebook, Mr Floppy Cock.

It's showing up for ?15.97 to me. Either way, those prices can't be right and I don't believe they'll honour them.

I took a punt on this dubious preorder. Either way I can't wait for this game. I've played the hell out of the series but only in single player.

New English trailer!

Ranger: "I'll shoot your DICK!"

[Golgo]

Hehe! Great trailer. Hope it's got as many stupid dick put-downs as Bulletstorm:
"I will kill your dick!"
"You'll kill my dick?! What does that even mean?"

[QualityChimp]

He actually says "I'll shoot you dead", but I had to rewind it because I misheard it the first time!

EDF chatter is funny in its nonsensical nature, rather than cleverly scripted.

I can't wait for this! Here's a Gamespot preview focusing on the fun to be had.

Looks like this has gone to thirty notes on PS3 and 360 on Gamestop.
I wonder if they'll honour the pre-order price? Their date is set to the 21st February now.

Here are a couple of interviews to tide you over whilst your oiling your turrets:

Associate Marketing Manager Kaori Takasue

Producer Joe Fletcher

I'd let the marketing lass oil my turret, etc. and so forth....

Some of you guys might be worried about what to ask your partner to get you for Valentine's Day.

Have no fear, Chimp is here.

Simply print one of these EDF 2025 Valentines Day cards off and your betrothed will be overwhelmed with emotion and know what gift to buy you...

[Golgo]

^ That is effing genius, Chimp!!!

[QualityChimp]

Thanks, but I can't take the credit for them this time as they're genuinepromotional material for EDF 2025! :O

They're sending out boxes with the cards in (one for each class), a fake rose that flashes when you press a button, four dog tags (one for each character class), three packs of heart-shaped sweets and a plastic heart with three chocolate covered insects inside.


When you finally get to the bottom of the box, there are a couple of fake roaches in there too!

[Golgo]

That's a fan-made wind-up, it's gotta be! Hehe

[Deuteros]

I'll be joining the ranks of the Xbox 360 faithful as soon as I get this.

Since I missed that 'too good to be true' GameStop price (they wouldn't ship overseas), where can I find this for a decent price? The cheapest I've seen this for is ?34.99. Also, are any stores offering pre-order DLC?

[QualityChimp]

Yeah, that looks about right, I'm afraid. ?33.99 is the cheapest I've seen it:

There are some American pre-order incentives, but the UK will have to buy any additional DLC:

http://www.allaboutthegames.co.uk/feature_story.php?headline=Earth-Defense-Force-2025-Release-Date-and-DLC-Plans-News&article_id=12730

The game will arrive on the 21st of February on PS3 and Xbox 360 along with its first dose of DLC, Special Ops which adds 5 new mission and will cost just ?2.39.The Mutant Rampage and Beyond Despair DLC packs will follow on the 26th of February and March the 12th respectively, both will add an extra 20 missions and cost ?7.29 each.
Normally all this DLC talk before release would piss me off, but more EDF can never be a bad thing, right? Check out the trailer below and then tell me I'm wrong.

The first DLC pack for the Japanese version of the game, titled Earth Defense Force 4, also featured five new missions: Floating Armada, Fortress More, Silver Thread Squad Giant, Parade of Giants and Search Giant. It is not currently clear if the western DLC pack will contain these same missions.
Weapon-focused pre-order bonuses from various (US) retailers include The Fencer Weapons Pack, The Wing Diver Weapons Pack, The Ranger Weapons Pack and The Air Raider Weapons Pack.
