It’s been a harrowing past two weeks waking up to the Monday morning press-release deluge and realizing that, no, it’s still not the week that the U.S. gets Space Invaders Get Even, after its European WiiWare debut. Square Enix was kind enough, though, to cut the tension and announce that December 1st will be, err.. SI-day.

Why the excitement? Long overdue (30 years!) for some payback, Get Even, as the name suggests, finally breaks from the past and this time justly plays from the vantage point of the fluorescent invaders themselves, wreaking havok on the world and the defense forces it’s assembled, and serves as a fantastic light hearted and comic-book-colorful counterpoint to the slickly retro-futuristic DS/PSP/Xbox Live Arcade’s Space Invaders Extreme.
