We traverse the ice and snow in PS3's Lost Planet

Anyone who missed Capcom's Lost Planet for Xbox 360 when it first came out sidestepped one of the system's most underrated pleasures. While the game may seem slow-of-foot at first glance (compared to high-flying third-person action games like Devil May Cry or Ninja Gaiden), savvy gamers found a more measured Mega Man-style method to the madness. After all, trudging through snow and ice-covered landscapes was never the fastest business, and once the initial learning curve was over, most gamers found that Lost Planet owed much to long-ignored Capcom stablemate, Bionic Commando. The grappling hook mechanic was not only an innovative device to move around 3D space, but also lent itself to some clever level design in both the single-player modes and the feverishly entertaining online play.

this game looks interesting from the trailer i've watched. i hope they will release a demo of this soon as i'd like to give it a spin. from what this stated that it's similar to "Mega Man" & "Bionic Commando" that already has me more interested in this title

BLuKhaos5939d ago

The multi-player demo has been released in the Japanese PSN store,so far the game looks and plays ok but I going to have to go with the X360 version as my choice.

TheHater5939d ago

This game is not very good. If you have a Japanese PSN account, then you can download it today. If you have xbox live, then you can download from there also. This game is not very good.

meepmoopmeep5939d ago

i always give a game that intersts me the benefit of the doubt and give it a try to see it i like it or not, since my opinion is what decides if a game is good or not. but thanks for the input

sonarus5939d ago

hate it when ppl complain about the ps3 controller. saying analog is too lose so not as precise. Wish there was a cross platform game that could be played online across platforms like to see a 360 owner best me on my ps3 controller. At the end it all boils dwn to getting used to the controller and considering i play more ps3 than 360 i am far more used to ps3 controller. But from time to time i play 360 when friends come over for madden. thats the only game i play on my 360 now. but 2 be fair only playing unreal and warhawk on ps3 so...

at least it looks on par with the 360 version now

OC Shock Value5939d ago

Yea i beat this game on 360.. if your a PS3 owner that never got your hands on this one.. its worth a play thru.. especially with the Zelda calibur boss battles..

its personally my kinda game.. gives you that go thru hell, fight boss at the end of stage.. Old school feeling.. back when games were at tip top condition

Grodd5939d ago

So the PS3 version has new content? This is the first I've heard of that! Also the article was incorrect this game DOES support the DualShock.
The article says
"Luka has missions of her own, much like Ada Wong's excursions in Resident Evil 4."

Time to add another classic to my collection!

lxeasy1906d ago

This is absolutely amazing! To this day Lost Planet is still my all time favorite online game. Love the Lost planet franchise!

ActualWhiteMan1906d ago

Glad I kept this one. Great game, very underrated.

Movefasta19931906d ago

lost planet 1 and 2 are gems imo

spicelicka1906d ago

2 is the one with 4 player co-op right? That was amazing! Being able to fight giant monsters in co-op was so awesome. It was like Monster hunter with guns.

Movefasta19931906d ago

it had an underrated pvp mode too

Not another one of these “treatment” articles

darthv721951d ago

Remasters are still popular so... yeah.

I personally like when there are remastered compilations. More than just remaking one game but to take a couple (or more) in a series and remake them as one nice compilation. Viewtiful Joe comes to mind. to have a full remake of all the games on one disc would be sweet.

I know many want to see Powerstone come back (as do I) but i'd go even deeper into their vault and bring back darkstalkers, cyberbots or even project justice / rival schools combo.

FallenAngel19841950d ago

This isn’t a remaster it’s a remake

galmi1951d ago

well for me there's
dino crisis
clock tower
haunting ground
resident evil 3
the whole onimusha series (except 4)
chaos legion
crimson tears
ring of red

PapaBop1951d ago

Imagine Clock Tower done in a similar style to RE7 in first person with VR support.. that would be so so damn good.

SuperDuke12901951d ago

That would be superawesome

JonTheGod1951d ago

I loved Haunting Ground. Very underrated.

Adexus1951d ago

Onimusha instantly came to mind.

JonTheGod1951d ago

Already happening (although it's a remaster as opposed to a remake).

Adexus1951d ago

Yeeeah, I definitely wouldn't say that's nearly on the level the RE2 Remake is.

monkey6021951d ago (Edited 1951d ago )

This is a horrible list!
There are a load of titles far more deserving of a remaster than these picks. Seriously ! Dead Rising, Lost Planet and Dragons Dogma aren't even old games and have had recent sequels already!

Top of the list should be Dino Crisis,
I'll accept Resi 3 because I'm hoping that happens.
Clock tower and Haunting Ground are good choices too, It would be nice to be able to get them for a non extortionate rate.

Shadow of Rome was an amazing game and I'd love a remaster or new entry but I genuinely don't think they'd get away with it today unless it was massively toned down

Vetalka831951d ago

Resident Evil 3 yes,Dino Crisis games?Yes.Onimusha 2 hell yes.never got to play Powerstone properly so yeah i would love to see it remade,others on that list i just dont care about.
