I don’t know why the 60’s were so fixated on satellite dish shaped weapons but I love them
It likely possessed a certain dramatic flair befitting a directed-energy weapon. While directional capabilities can be achieved using an array of numerous antennas, such a setup lacks visual appeal.
>>65340933The two newest EDF games have those as the primary armaments of some of the summoned vehicles. Man I should really reinstall 6, they finally made the early game for air raider not a fucking slog.
>>65341862I actually 100% completed 6 recently. I fucking love EDF. Right now I’m playing through insect Armageddon for the first time after having gone through 4.1, 5, 6 and Iron Rain
>>65341865I don't know how you could go back to any of the earlier ones after all the qol improvements in 6. Except maybe Iron Rain because that just did everything so differently that it's almost not an EDF game.
>>653418764.1 was my first EDF and it has an aesthetic I like way more than 5 and 6, things like the fencer and most of the enemies look far cooler. 5 and 6 are far better gameplay wise.Insect Armageddon and iron rain are both very different so they can’t really be compared.

>>65341880>4.1 was my first EDF Get on my level when I was playing Simple Series Earth Defense Force on a JPN PS2.I was surprised by the appearance of the 2017 version on the Xbox 360. Still like the Genocide Cannon even if it has bugs.
>>65342163I actually got into EDF before YouTubers discovered it and made it more popular, that has to count for something.I haven’t played the first three games sadly. I played 4-6, insect Armageddon, iron rain and the first world brothers game. I wasn’t into world brothers so I skipped out on the second one.
