I placed an order with Amazon last October for the then-upcoming "Global Defense Force" game. It's originally a D3 Simple 2000 game called "Chikyuu Boueigun 2", the sequel to "Chikyuu Boueigun" which I played the UK release of under the name of "Monster Attack" for PS2.
The first game is not a brilliant game, but I liked it. It's simple, as it says. You run around 3rd person shooter and blow up giant ants. And the city. By accident. You get into vehicles and blow up more giant ants and some UFOs. And the city. By accident. You get bigger guns, blow up more giant ants and some UFOs. And the city. By accident. You can also blow up things collaboratively with a friend, if you like.
The 3rd game has come out for Xbox 360 in this country already.
Anyway.
On the 26th June Amazon finally decided to send me an email saying "we give up, we can't get this game, we cancelled your order". Meanwhile, play.com list it as available for despatch in 24 hours. So here's a link. ^_^

Darwin for PS2
I found an interesting-looking game while browsing Amazon (UK) today:
Darwin for PS2, released ont he 23rd March 2007. I'd never heard of it before! The blurb is:
"From ape to human lead the evolution of mankind! Darwin is on a mission to broaden his horizons, evolving himself and his surroundings to a new life. Evolve everyone in your village from ape to human by teaching your troops to hunt, fight and speak"
So I was thinking... perhaps it's like Evo or the new Seaman game...
As it's a brand new game with an interesting concept that is selling really cheaply, I thought "maybe it's a Simple 2000 game" and looked on the D3 website.
I found the game here:
Simple 2000 Series #99 - the Genshijin (Commercial to watch)
It looks kind of like Pikmin... but with monkeys that evolve into hairy cavemen. I placed my order, since this looks interesting. It's also unusual to see a game being rated for ages 3+ (according to Amazon's box art) with that much blood in it.
I've just found a review of the game here. They seem to think it's a really good game considering that it's a Simple 2000 budget release.
