EDF: Insect Armageddon Out Now

This holiday weekend, you can do one of two things: watch a bunch of fireworks, or blast truck-sized insects into orbit. I think the choice it pretty clear.

Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon was set to launch next week, but retailers are selling it early. Did D3Publisher move the date to give people something to do over the extended weekend? Are retailers simply giving up? One thing's for sure: I personally strolled into a store an hour ago, plunked down $40, and grabbed a copy. You may want to call ahead before hopping into your car, but I am living proof that dreams do come true.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go do...something.

[Thanks for the tip, Ian and Kavon! Now I have something new to play!]

Nice. I'm going to call Gamestop now and see if they are selling it here yet. I hope so, it would be nice to get a hold on this game tonight.

I was wondering what that Pre-order text was about. I guess I'm getting it in the morning.

Yes .. yes. That's all well and good, but is it worth the money? Is it any fun?

If I didn't have to buy a new air conditioner tomorrow I would certainly pick this up.
by Kyle Sondergaard Saturday, July 02, 2011 at 06:35 PM

I just might have to go pick this up tonight if the GameStop near me is selling it early too.

EDIT: Just picked it up. Got the last copy they had. My Fourth of July weekend just became awesome.

This is true for those who live in West Virginia. Unfortunately, mine was sold out on the PS3 version. So...yeah. If WV got it, you guys probably got it too.
by james dortch Saturday, July 02, 2011 at 06:54 PM

i got the very last copy in my town since i was smart enough to pre order it. EDF!!!! SCORE!
by duraigo Saturday, July 02, 2011 at 07:05 PM

Is it possible to blow the insects up with fireworks so that i get the best of both worlds?
by Rob K Saturday, July 02, 2011 at 07:17 PM
