Professional reviews from gaming critics
“The Sandlot is back with more bug-squashing action, and Earth Defense Force 2025 is the best realization yet of the developer's vision.”
The insects return from dormancy to end humanity with over-the-top action and massive city-leveling explosions that will entrench the EDF and the citizens of Earth into a state of emergency.
Earth Defense Force 2025, a game about fighting giant bugs, has been dragged down by significant performance bugs. I can forgive (and even enjoy) the quirky physics and awkward voice acting EDF is known for, but the terrible frame rate turns this fast-paced action game into a slow-motion chug-fest when it matters most. Killing bugs with these varied classes and weapons is still a ton of fun (especially in co-op) but not what it should be.
Underneath the relentless swarms of giant insects you can shoot, you'll find... giant robots to shoot. It's an onion of shooting. Mike takes on EDF 2025.
