“For every massive movie that focuses on top of the line special effects or huge names to try and draw in an audience, there are often countless other movies that people watch simply because of how absurd the premise or special effects end up being. These movies are often called B movies and are often full of schlocky fun that, despite the overall quality, makes for a good time. For over two decades the Earth Defense Force franchise has settled itself quite nicely in this niche of action game by pitting players against hordes of oversized insects, aliens that are called random names, kaiju, and all kinds of robots with a fairly simple and absurd premise holding things together. Throughout these years some of these games have seen some highs and lows as well as some spin-offs in-between but now Sandlot has returned with the next main entry. After being Japanese exclusive for two years, Earth Defense Force 6 has finally made its way to the West and is it everything fans could expect?”
