 PSP Chikyuu Boueigun 2 - New Import

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» The big bugs are back in D3 Publisher's PSP conversion of their groundbreaking game which was originally released on the Playstation 2. The date: June 12, 2019 - Three months after repelling the first alien invasion as chronicled in the original Earth Defense Force, the UFOs and massive insects are back for a surprise encore. Once again, players suit up in body armor, take up the gun(s), and fire heavy ordnance to bust up chitinous exoskeletons.

   The new alien attack vanguard targets London at first and eventually moves to Tokyo. Massive creatures including arachnids and insect invaders such as centipedes and flying ants are on the rampage and only a well armed soldier can stop their assault. Over 140 weapons are available for fending off the beasts including machine guns, rocket propelled grenades, and guided missiles. When the insects explode, they'll erupt into a dust cloud of yellowish debris but when UFOs are taken down, they'll explode into fiery conflagrations that will also destroy any insects that are nearby. Watching a bunch of ants swarm a building is fairly impressive. Destroying the building and watching it crush all of the ants that were once swarming is doubly so.


   New to the PSP game are 4 additional missions for a total of 71 missions and ad hoc gameplay. In addition to the regular edition of the game, a "Double Recruit Pack" in also available for preorders which is packaged with a second copy of the game so two players can collaborate.
