About this product

Product Information

A 3D update of 1980's coin-op classic, Defender has players guiding a star fighter from a behind-the-ship perspective in an attempt to thwart an alien invasion. Pilots must once again rescue potential abductees, only this time the threats are bloodthirsty bugs called Manti. Battles take place in a campaign format, playable with a friend in cooperative mode, as pilots engage alien swarms across planetary surfaces on Venus, Mars, and Earth, as well as in the far reaches of space. Players will be able to control pitch and roll using the left thumbstick, perform evasive maneuvers with the right thumbstick, and use both forward and reverse thrusters to blast ahead or to fall back. A lock-on targeting system lets players isolate an objective, enemy, or friendly unit. <br><br>Six ships are available to pilot, each offering different characteristics in speed, armor, agility, strength, and special weapon. All ships have the capability to pick up items on the ground or in the air, including colonists and friendly units such as tanks. Whether it's the light and nimble fighter or the slow and heavily armed bomber, techniques such as barrel rolls, loops, and reversals are also possible, and familiar weapons such as smart bombs can eradicate multiple threats in one blinding flash. Navigating the environments is accomplished with the help of a scanner, which delineates enemy fighters in red and friendly units in blue. Various upgrades in weaponry as well as extra lives can be purchased with credits earned during missions.<br><br>Once players find and rescue colonists during their mission, they can drop them off at multiple locales. Colonists returned to a drop zone will earn players power-ups, while colonists deployed at either a missile crawler or a tank factory will allow players to build ground units for additional support. Those brave souls who have been captured by the Manti will mutate into new and more deadly Manti craft. Two-player options include cooperative play as well as a deathmatch mode, where both combatants face off against one another in a kill-or-be-killed scenario. Both modes are played from a horizontally split screen. DVD Extras include a "making of" featurette, a retrospective on the game's history, and "coming soon" trailers for Midway games in development.

  • Amazing game, gem of the Xbox era. Must have for Original Xbox collection.

    This is one of the greats from the original Xbox console, and common enough to still be easily found and enjoyed. It has a long campaign with variable difficulties and several different ships that you can customize in the fight against the alien horde. It had good graphics for the day, and is very pleasing to watch and play. The controls came a little bit before the modern flight standard was established, so might take a little getting used to, but you'll be blasting aliens in style in no time as they are smooth and intuitive. Gameplay is fun, and the objective system never leaves you guessing what you're supposed to be doing. In general though, you are trying to protect bases, rescue and deliver to safety colonists, and above all fight off the invading waves of aliens. You get credits for ...

  • Oh dear.....

    This is probably the worst game I have seen on any platform. The only resemblance to the classic arcade game is the sound of the guns on the defender ship. I was bored after 10 minutes of the erratic, confusing and pointless gameplay. The idea of picking up humans on the ground and flying them back clutching to the wings of my spacecraft rather than them being mauled during the hi-speed pickup had me laughing out loud. Don&apos;t bother.

  • wheee

    for some stupid reason, i love this game, and along with crimson skies, hope that they update it for the 360 multiplayer mayhem and fun that i like so much now. i like the spaceships, the futuristic feel, i even have the playstation 2 version of it, but play the xbox one now on my sweet 360
