Anyone else take note of this 360 game, ported/expanded arcade game as far as I can tell, and it seems wonderfully stupid. Like a perfect tribute to Godzilla/Invading creature movies with you playing the generic hero.
Seems it'll turn out in a similar fashion to Bullet Witch and Vampire Rain, mostly ignored but ridiculously fun for no good reason.

Yikes-- It's unfortunate enough that I own the first SNES one.

The PS2/X360 Earth Defense Force games are completely different from the SNES title(s?)
I've played the second one on the PS2. Not quite as awesome as people would lead you to believe, but it's good stupid fun, so it fits its role nicely as a budget title. It has terrible frame rate problems though, which is why I'm looking forward to the 360 one being localized.
I could swear that I heard that Vampire Rain was being released in the US, but I think it was just under the title "Rain". Don't quote me on that. I think it's just a Splinter Cell ripoff with vampires. Or something.

I was a big fan of the first PS2 game and while the second is also good (better in fact), it was pretty much more of the same for me.
My friend brought EDF3 over the other day and I was blown away. It is such a beautiful game and I was honestly tempted to get a 360 again just for it.

Well, with Vampire Rain GameFAQs seems convinced that it's getting a US release (hey, but here's hoping for PAL because I want it too), I know some people believe these guys can be wrong a bit but I'd think it is being released. And Splinter Cell with Vamipres? Yes please.
Yes however EDFs3 really needs to be seen in motion it just has this crazy vibe to, basically it does over the top ridiculous action better then anything I've seen in quite a while, and is something the 360 sorely needs imo (unrealistic shooters) that and RPGs.
