Pros
+ Gorgeous visuals plus lots of snow.
+ Great, addictive multiplayer. Grappling hooks!!!
+ Awesome arcade-type experience brought to next-gen with fun mech-play and shoot em' up action.

Cons
- Gameplay is not as deep as other Capcom titles have been such as 'Dead Rising' or 'Resident Evil 4'. Tends to be repetitive.
- Multiplayer mode is not as consistant as it should be.
- Controls could be smoother. Should be a way to not have to walk so much.

Comments
Lost Planet is one game that has a better multiplayer mode than the single player. The campaign is intriguing but the multiplayer is far more addictive and will keep you playing for months to come. There are a lot of things you will come to hate such as some of the aiming & movement issues but if you can get around them you will have fun.

Verdict
If you buy this buy it more for the Xbox Live experience. If you are looking for a great Capcom campaign on the 360 try 'Dead Rising' instead.

  "You're as cold as ice, you're willing to sacrifice..."
Review created: 03/01/07(updated 03/15/07)

When I first heard of Lost Planet I was excited. When I played the demo, I was amazed. When I finally played the retail version...well, not so much. It's not to say Lost Planet: Extreme Condition is a bad game, because it's not. There's a lot to like about it. Lot's of guns, Mech's (or as the game calls them, Vital Suits), creative monsters and a sweet grappling hook. I was very pleased with all the variety.

The game takes place on an ice cold planet run a muck with monsters called Akrid. Think Hoth and Starship Trooper bugs with glowing butts. These Akrid have a type of thermal energy within them that you and everyone else must use to keep warm and power all the equipment. Through out the game you have to collect this thermal energy to fill a meter that is constantly counting down and if it hits zero you die. And the only way to harvest said energy is, yep you guessed it, kill them. Killing off your only source of energy...humm, not very efficient if you look at it from an economical stand point.

One thing that completely bothered me was the thermal energy usage in certain environments. It seemed that no matter where you are, the loss of this energy remains at a constant. For some reason it drops even faster when you climb into a VS. Seriously, if you're inside one of these things, wouldn't you expect it to be warmer inside? Cripes! Even my 1995 Saturn has a heater in it! There was even one level and I kid you not, where you're inside of a volcano. Packed with lakes and rivers of hot lava and yet you can still "freeze" to death because you're meter is still dropping. Sure I can see if you're out in the tundra on foot but come on! A Volcano?!

What about the multiplayer? It's a bit janky, even incomplete in some areas. For starters you can't just leave a match once you've joined. When in a room and things aren't going well, too few people, don't like the map, a friend invites you or what ever it may be. You have to either exit to the 360 dashboard or completely shut the system down because the Start button does not work. It's a serious flaw by any standard. Another thing which really chaps my ass is that the multiplayer maps just weren't designed very well for this type of game play. In some cases you have a map that's way too small forcing everyone on top of each other (even with huge VS's bumping into things), while others are just too big leaving people to roam around searching for targets.

Reportedly Capcom is to release some updates to fix some of the technical issues, which is fine, but will they help in the big picture? The extras that come with the Limited Edition aren't all that great either. Unless you're a big fan of pretty concept pic's and/or want the extra map that comes with it, than you don't need to pay the extra $10 for it. Maybe my memory is failing me but not once do I recall it ever snowing in this game, very strange...

Review created: 08/08/07

Lost planet stands with some of my personal favorite games. The storyline takes you through much angst, and plot twists. One of the reasons I kept going was just to see what happened to the main character
HD musts
-Explosion clouds
-Snow effects
-Particles
Having an HDTV will makes these effects looks much better, lost planet had particle effects more beautiful than any other game I have seen for the Xbox 360
The playability is decent, but may frustrate some players on the time it takes the character to roll or jump, when in truth it makes it more realistic since your character needs to bend his legs.
Multiplayer is what you can expect from this Capcom game, there is a decent community and you seem to "level up" the more matches you play. The community on Lost Planet can sometimes be rude in my opinion, but that's expected of any Xbox LIVE game.
Sound is astonishingly well thought-out and, and treat to listen to, there is a separate CD that includes the soundtrack.
The Game comes with a metal case, with exclusive cover art. there is also a booklet included concept art and short descriptions of characters and Akrid (the aliens) You will also have the players book, and though it is no longer exclusive to collector's edition, there is a multi player map.
If you like large robots with heavy weapons, 3rd person shooting, a true challenge, and gorgeous effects; Lost Plant is a game that will deliver
From friends and others, you either love lost planet or dislike it.

  Inappropriate for Pre-Teens
Review created: 07/11/07(updated 09/29/07)

My 12-year old son received this game as a birthday present from one of his classmates. In my opinion as a parent, the game is not appropriate for pre-teens and I would recommend that parents review the game in advance of allowing your children to play the game.

  Lost Planet.....You need to find it...NOW

Well I have played several 360 games and this one ranks up there among the best so far. Plenty of weapons and enemies. The graphics are superb and the storyline is good as well. The bosses are pretty tough. The music is some of the best of any 360 game out there. I highly recommend this game, especially if you are a CAPCOM fan.

Another thing, this is IMO the best XBOX Live game out there. I have had more fun and met better online gamers on this game than any other I have ever played.

  Lost planet
Review created: 08/27/08

The extreme conditions mentioned in the title are no joke. Lost Planet takes place on a planet that is so cold, freezing to death would happen quite rapidly if it weren't for a strange orange ooze that the local residents known as the Akrid produce and store. This thermal energy can be harvested and used to keep the main character from succumbing to the elements. Unfortunately, the Akrid are a collective of giant bug-like aliens who haven't bought into the human ideas of colonizing and terra forming the planet. Rather than looking for a more suitable planet to colonize, humanity took the next logical step; build giant mechs called vital suits and make bigger guns to fight back.



The indoor environments can be breathtaking.Lost Planet's campaign mode places you in the role of Wayne, a man whose last memory is of his father being killed by a large and dangerous Akrid named Green Eye before being knocked into a coma. This memory lays down the groundwork for his motivation to rid the planet of the nasty critters one hive at a time which is how you spend the early portions of the game. Other characters and human enemies are quickly introduced to round out the action and confuse the story, but it is the gameplay that makes this title fulfilling, so let's ignore the story issues for a while.

The action in Lost Planet takes place either on foot or from within one of the aforementioned vital suits. The gameplay gimmick that helps to keep Lost Planet fresh is the thermal energy bar. In this frozen planet, you're required to kill or be killed…or freeze to death. Each enemy you take down or piece of machinery you destroy leaves behind a small puddle of thermal energy that helps to restore your constantly draining supply. Rather than employing a standard life bar, Lost Planet opted to tie your life completely to the thermal energy. If you take a hit from an enemy, your thermal energy will drain into your life bar. The energy doesn't drain fast enough to ever become a serious issue in most stages, but it does provide a nice nudge to the player to keep them moving along towards the next big fight. In this way, the thermal energy mechanic is an excellent addition to an action game - if you don't keep moving and fighting and spend all of your time doing uneventful exploring, you'll find yourself in big trouble.

The weapons and vital suits also do a great job of keeping the action steady and rocking. The guns have a nice variety to them, but it's the grenades and vital suits that ensure that you have the firepower needed to take down anything and everything (which you can thanks to the largely destructible bits of cover). The vital suits range from simple walkers and transforming snowmobiles to chainsaw equipped death machines and spider-esque drilling mechs. And the guns these vital suits come with are no joke. You can equip up to two interchangeable weapons per machine, or you can rip them off and tote them around on foot. These huge guns do massive damage for very satisfactory results. It's a good thing too, because Lost Planet does a nice job of ramping up the intensity as the game progresses, from being faced with a few car sized bugs at the beginning stages to all out war.

takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you,
this is 100% real. I will answer you on any question! Here is what you
do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is
the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete
the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do).This

different pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with
nothing else to buy...No commitments!!!

There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster
online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would
regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use
them to get a free PS3 System or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 30 day
free trial and it never cost me a penny and I received credit for it the
same day). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you.
After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 8-13 people

Then they will ship your PS3 System or your selected item for free, I
chose the PS3 80gb System. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these

  Lost Planet Collector's Edition
Review created: 02/26/08

Great game fun to play. Looks really good with the snow effects. Haven't tried multiplayer though. IMO no game is worth $60 unless it's a 50+ hour RPG but this game is worth at least $30.

  One Of The Better Xbox 360 Titles
Review created: 06/23/07
by:

I think that this is a great action shooter game with Xbox 360 quality graphics. The snow effects are amazing and has above average graphics. I feel that the great thing about this game is the ability to keep picking up and exchanging a variety of weapons and I like the VS. The title could've used a bit more variety with the gameplay and background. Overall, I think that this game is one of the better Xbox 360 games to date, and gives it a better value.

I bought the game because of the good reviews it got with gaming magazines. It was, indeed, a great game. However, it was not as long as I would have hoped for. I finished it rather quickly. That being said, the graphics were awesome and the storyline was amazing. It was definately worth the money. :-)
