More evidence points to Lost Planet 2 hitting the PS3

Capcom's recent E3 line up announcement essentially confirms that Lost Planet 2 will indeed be coming to the PS3 at some point.

[sonarus]

sigh...360 needs this. Looks like it shall be timed and PS3 will get it later with some new feature. Good move by microsoft to get it timed though. Timed exclusives better than no exclusives

[CaseyRyback_CPO]

The first one coming out on ps3.. and capcom being a multiplatform developer.

My only problem with lost planet, is that the first one sucked on 360/pc/and sucked most on the ps3. I'm glad that i'm not relying on a LP2 announcement/footage at e3 for any of my consoles/computer. Capcom is in the business of making money. If you want some real exclusives, look to your first party devs folks. Not ones on the console/pc.

When Lp2 hits the ps3 it will of course run slightly worse than the 360 arcade version which it was optimized to run on, which always come in far behind any ps3 exclusive when it comes to performance, what ps3 owners are going to buy LP2 once it hits in the sea that is PSE3? The first one performed terribly as well. Capcom is giong to have to prove that its running well before they fool the 34 people that bought the ps3 version into buying it again instead of exclusives.

And why the hell do you invest in a timed exclusive of LP2? This is all wrong. SF4, yes. RE5, yes. LP2? ... Its like buyingn exclusive wheelman dlc..

oh wait.

[ThanatosDMC]

The way things are with Capcom games... we'll have another 5gb install... get ready for a sandwich spree.

[JokesOnYou]

because I thought they actually had "more evidence", damm was I wrong.

JOY

[sonarus]

yup 5Gb install is pretty much Guaranteed.

[Godmars290]

Why? Not like they went to any extra effort with the last one.

[snipermk0]

I will simply get it for the PC and problem solved.

[Ninver]

This whole timed exclusive thing is utter nonsense if you ask me. If you(the scum company) end up having the game released for a substantial amount of time before the rest, then you're basically beta testing the game for the ps3 and vise versa.

Regardless how much people try to deny it, third party exclusives are gone out the window. This is the sole reason why Sony will forever have the upper hand when it comes to games and momentum. They always have something new and groundbreaking to offer on a monthly basis.

A true gamer knows that moves like this are pathetic and M$ has lead in this department. I never thought i'd see the day when such a large corporations like Micro would be riding on third party games and false advertise them like they where exclusives. Truly and utterly pathetic. So are fools who follow such a underwhelming corporation.

[s8anicslayer]

unless MS can pay capcom what they would make on the ps3 it will not be exclusive to the 360, but then again it's ms so that is very possible

[Bnet343]

No one is denying that it's not coming to PS3 so I don't see why this is being dragged out like this. It's going to come out on PS3 and PC just like every other Capcom game this generation. For some people, "common sense isn't so common"

[Adolf Hitler]

Sweet more games to play.:)

[I did not murder him]

This is based on some of the same speculations we have already heard. The info isn't even accurate. No one ever said the game is in development for "PC" and the 360. I fail to see any new "evidence"

ps3center.net you say?

[IdleLeeSiuLung]

I personally thoroughly enjoyed the first one. I'm looking forward to the second one that so far looks amazing.

It will come to the PS3 with some extra content though.... I prefer not to have timed exclusives because it basically steals the early adopters of extra content while excluding other gamers.

It is a lose-lose situation for gamers in general, but the practice is here to stay.

edit: Obviously this won't happen, but I would laugh hard if it came out on the Wii instead of PS3.

[Traveler]

I played the first one on my 360 and thought it was fairly mediocre. This one does look more interesting though, so we'll see.

[Adolf Hitler]

It doesn't make sense to keep the T-eng system.If it's warm enough for plant life to grow why do they need thermal energy?

[7ero H3LL]

the MT engine works better with 360, and even more so when the project is xbox 360 lead.

if capcom wants to make it exclusive to 360 or make it a multiplatform that's up to them, but it's most def that ps3's version won't be worth paying attention to or worth buying.

[Sarcasm]

meh, I'm going to at least rent the 360 version. The first one was 7/10. It could have been better, but man it was annoying when you fell, it had a 3-5 second animation for you to get back up just for you to get knocked down again.

Jun Takeuchi eat a D*** with your crappy character controls (RE5 too)

[UnwanteDreamz]

[Beast_Master]

I would be lying if I said I didn't want to play this game.. I love me some Co-op games though. Get your rocks ready because... I actually want this and Army of Two: 40th day. I have a blast playing co-op games with my little Bro and buddies that come over to the house, to bad all I have to play is Army of 2, RE5 and Resistance 2 at the moment.

[Enigma_2099]

You bunch of hypocrites!!!

[DelbertGrady]

I agree with Adolf Hitler.

:-=0

[n4gn4gn4gn4g]

F U

[Godmars290]

Either come out and say yes, no or we're still unfamiliar with the PS3. At this point timed exclusives are only hurting publishers. Same applies to Sony and Ghostbusters.

[locos85]

Why all this commotion for this game. The 1st one was sh!t. This is as irrelevant as the stupid Ghostbusters timed exclusivity.

[Lfmesquite]

think it is. It's probably a timed exclusive because they've said that right now they're only working on the 360 version.

[OGharryjoysticks]

But since they are only working on the 360 version, it won't translate well when time comes to make the PS3 version. Regardless of what Capcom or any other publisher PR says about how they develop games and how the engines are supposedly built for multiplatform it's just PR talk. To build perfection for the PS3 you need to start ground up on that platform.

Lost Planet 2 on PS3 will be inferior.

[mastiffchild]

Yeah, there's absolutely no point in them releasing the PS3 version at all under these circumstances. Most games would lose out on PS3 sales purely with the later release but with the example of how a very mundane first game on 360 translated into an even worse experience on PS3 this one's properly dead in the water.

I'll rent it for 360 but after being stung by the first one it'll have to be incredibly different to make me buy it this time around. I dunno when I last really enjoyed a Capcom game, and I know people think they're on good form but , for me, DMC4 and LP were bad and everything else since has been pretty "meh" as well(possible exceptions of MM9 anmd SF2THDR)plus after ruining the SP of RE5 to add insult to injury with the Vs content fiasco means I just don't trust them anymore.

[chasegamez2]

it just doesn't work
which console gets it last
it sells poorly

[Narutone66]

beta testing it for the other console.

[II Necroplasm II]

Just hope the port will be much better than the port of the first game.

[gauntletpython]

i dont know who Capcom thinks they are fooling. Just announce timed exclusive and get it over with.

[GiantEnemyCrab]

Yes, it doesn't make much sense to be so vague about it.

If it's timed or an exclusive just say it. Then we won't have to listen to the hacks of the internet basically talking out of their arse like they know what is going to happen or going on with this game.

[Polluted]

Yeah, but they get a lot of free publicity out of fanatics arguing over whether their game will appear on their console of choice. This article is a good example.

[JD_Shadow]

I think you should say this to Bioware, as well, about Mass Effect 2.

[Sarcasm]

crab summed it up nicely with massive damage.

"It's not coming out for PS3... or is it?" "Is it?" "No... not right now. Exclusive to the 360." "Not right now?" "No, not ever!!! Maybe." "Maybe?" "No not maybe. Never. for now." "FOR NOW???"

"CONFIRMED: Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2"

:)

[bomboclaat_gamer]

let it come to the ps3, so these girls can stop whining. as long as its on the 360 im good

[OGharryjoysticks]

It's obvious what they would be getting if they played the first one on PS3. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

[bomboclaat_gamer]

remember killzone 1?

i guess u just wanna say crap. frikkin fanboy

[mastiffchild]

In what way do you think he was being a fanboy? The first LP was much worse on the PS3 than the 360(shockingly so) and with the dev process and engine being almost exactly the same isn't it fair enough to think the second game might do similar? To suggest PS3 gamers should be wary of this if it does release seems pretty good advice.

What concerns me more as a gamer is that the gameplay improves over the trudging numbness we all sat through last time. It deserves to as mechs are cool done right and the premise is as good as most but last time it was really one dimensional in terms of gameplay experience-and that was on 360, on PS3, as I said, it was even worse.

[Sony Rep]

timed exclusive like all 360 games

[swiftshot93]

thats interesting

[TheIneffableBob]

The game is actually being developed on PC hardware right now. All the videos Capcom have shown of Lost Planet 2 so far has been running off high-end PC hardware. If Capcom continues their trend of working on PC games in-house (first Lost Planet, DMC4, Bionic Commando, Street Fighter IV, Resident Evil 5), then LP2 will likely be on PC too.

[likedamaster]

Both Lost Planet & Lost Planet Colonies were on PC and 360(the latter with cross-platform play), only the first Lost Planet is on PS3.

[Says you]

Selling well and this one will to if its not already being ported already as I type XBox 360 fans believe anything these days in what Microsoft said like this is "Only on Xbox 360" and the next day its announced on the PS3 and of course they believed Microsoft fixed the RROD.

[ZEEBO4LIFESTFU]

ps3 kids didnt want this game?

[Sony Rep]

I thought M$ had exclusives?

[Shaka2K6]

.

[Mo0eY]

I hope Gears of Bugs 3 doesn't come to my console - that game is trash. Only decent part about it was that chainsaw weapon, but holy crap lay off the quick time events.

[nightelfmohawk]

...that powers the check-generator machine at M$? Looks like M$ isn't paying its "bills."

[PSP2]

bomboclaat gamer hear me now,im not a girl and dont care for lost planet 2.

jah!

[Bill Gates]

Stupid BABOONS, when will you learn...AHAHHAHAHHAHAHH

[eagle21]

"Step By Step: Free Yourself From Xbot Delusion"

360 has nothing to brag about anymore. Xbots should be glad that you at least have more exclusives than the 3DO and Pippen.... LMAO

[cayal]

The logic they use is a bit of a stretch.

[OmarJA]

There is no evidence needed, it's inevitable...

[Funky Town_TX]

I hope this game is good. IT makes zero sense for this game to be exclusive to any platform. We all should be able to enjoy this game.

[BURNDOWNTHEHOUSE]

Microsoft is begging (or paying) Capcom to keep the PS3 version secret so that they will have something to talk about at E3 besides DLC.

[Kaneda]

M$ can keep this game if they want.. LP1 sucked! Lp2 looks as suck as LP1

[onijutsu]

meh i would rather pick up street fighter 4 than this.

[likedamaster]

No street fighter 4 yet? What in God's name are you waiting for? Hands down the best fighter this gen. Warning though, you will get raped online if you don't practice.

[Godmars290]

If the main focus is four player multi its a sure bet that anything single player, given RE5, is going to suck.

Forget that there probably wont be a story, just a multiplayer campaign.

[solidjun5]

it's probably timed.

[PtRoLLFacE]

what a fuking losers

[Covenant]

$$$$$$$$$

Nuff said.

[Chuck Norris AAA]

This dudes right

[Unicron]

Sure, why not. Toss another on the massive pile this year. My wallet weeps.

[Rhezin]

NO XBOTS! damn they must be hurtin after that announcement. FIRST DEAD RISING NOW LOST PLANET! OUCH!

[ultimolu]

If it comes to the PS3, it's gonna look like crap. The first one was evidence enough.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

um-muh-guh!!!

I freakin' love your avatar! I was in love with her throughout the show...even though she was just a card.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

lols to your comment.

Ports:

360 to PS3 - 360 version looks better

PS3 to 360 - PS3 version looks better

Why is there still a debate???

[psiom]

why wouldn't it? The first one is on PS3, ergo the franchise is on PS3. No brainer I would have thought?

[Kamikaze135]

Capcom during E3 in 2008: 2009 will be the year of multiplatform titles. No more exclusives. Yep...case closed.

[likedamaster]

"By the time PS3ers get to play this game Xbox360ers would have moved on to the next great Capcom title." Ouch! History repeats itself. LOL

[eagle21]

and E74, RROD, and CCC games on 360. :)

[tha_meat_beater]

youll be on your next xbox

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Who cares?

What gamer will be bored enough to pick this game up?

[cmrbe]

i would not pick up this game if it ever shows its face on the PS3.

[HDgamer]

Lost planet didn't suck.

[caffman]

well since lost planet 1 was on PS3 it doesn't take einstein to work that one out and yet the droids are acting like they have just won the console war!

[Mo0eY]

Awww, he's butthurt because he lost another exclusive title.

[caffman]

you could drive a bus up your ringpiece after the FF13 announcement last year

[mac4u10]

the game looks dam good anyhow...1 more for my shopping list

[bomboclaat_gamer]

ps3 owners here are such cry babies. why all of a sudden LP 2 is crap. and some dumb asses say LP1 sucked so part 2 will also suck.

KZ1 sucked, but KZ 2 did good, altho the sales sucked. but the game was still good, non the less.

i cant even tell u guys to grow up, cuz i know u r not adults.

[Mo0eY]

I liked the part where he disagreed that LP1 was full of suck.

[Man_of_the_year]

Wow...the maturity level truly is much higher in the 360 fans than the Ps3 fans.

The only "new hint" that the game is coming to the PS3 is because of the word "currently". LOL and all the PS3 idiots get hardon's thinking that MS lost an exclusive.

Most likely it is a timed exclusive so MS has not lost anything. The only "exclusive" about this game is that xbox Live got the first exclusive trailer...Big Facking Deal.

You Droids are so upset that Sony is Failing hard this Gen then they did last gen that you will get excited about the smallest of things and then turn it around like its a shot at MS...LOL you poor sad pathetic people.

[spartan400]

Its its anything like the first one.I dont want(period)

[II Necroplasm II]

I want to kill the bugz!

[kewlkat007]

.........

[ELite_Ghost]

its gonna suck, u move so slow in that game which pisses a lot of ppl off. multiplayer wasn't great either.

[ThaGeNeCySt]

eh, regardless of whatever... i'm highly anticipating this game... loved the first one (outside of it's foolish story)... 2nd one should be a gem if they focus more on the story... the game play mechanics were great, the graphics were great, the mech's were great, some of the bosses were great (others were decent) CAN'T WAIT!

[Shane Kim]

Don't really care about this game, but it looks pretty good from what I've seen.

[Kleptic]

yeah it definitely doesn't look bad...at least whats been shown...the first title didn't look good on either platform, and the ridiculous crysis like PC requirements made it look like pile on even a strong PC too...

but the sequel looks like RE5 in open environments with faster pacing...which definitely isn't a bad thing...

pretty funny how Capcom loves to say 'everything will be multiplatform from us now' at any chance when speaking to Sony oriented sites...but still is accepting offers for timed exclusitivity obviously...feck capcom in that sense...every single thing they have made this generation, save SFIV...has fallen relatively short of expectations...funny how this keeps happening to eastern publishers when they seem to embrace the 360 more and more...Capcom and SE are both well under their previous par in terms of game quality...yet seem to be reaching out to the 360 more than any other platform...

[Shane Kim]

Hahaha agreed Kleptic.

[Socomer 1979]

its was okay. great explosions but very very boring. i kept comparing the boss fights to fights in shadow of colosus. not on purpose i just kept getting reminded and in the end I had even more respect for shadow of the colosus. the multiplayer was okay too for lost planet but after 2 games you are so bored with the simplicity of it.

the most fun you can have online is the voice changer effect.
im surprised capcom decided to do a part 2 because after i beat this game I felt it was a wrap, over and done.

Today, I couldnt care about lost planet at all. but i guess the 360 needs to recycle every game they have had in the past. Just because of that I already know there will be very little improvements over the first game and I dont have time for that.

[aldesko]

Capcom should either release it on all platforms simultaneously or make it exclusive... they're just shooting themselves in the foot releasing the game 6 months to a year later on PS3. Look at what happened with the original Lost Planet, plus games like Bioshock and Eternal Sonata (they didn't sell well). Not many people are interested in buying a year-old game.

[Stryfeno2]

Leftovers? Nothing to see here.

[GameGambits]

The Japanese are still really new to the shooter experience, but the two Japanese third person shooters that have come out for me that were success' online were Lost Planet and Metal Gear Online. Both of those games feature very similar characteristics in gameplay mechanics and not being something everyone will be good at. However, if you sink your time 5+hours into the online for MGO or Lost Planet you'll find yourself in a great place.

I personally will buy Lost Planet 2 day one unless a sea of reviews all give it terrible scores.(Terrible being less than 8...sorry. That's just rental at most once it goes below an 8 but an 8 can still merit a purchase if its a consistent 8)

The Japanese have to do a catch up game on how an action shooter title in third person works. They'll def. be looking at Gears of Wars' success and hopefully soon Uncharted 2's. With those as building blocks then maybe soon enough the best shooters could eventually be made in Japan.(So long as they get it done right)
