That's rather comical. I wonder how they'll work them into the story. If they even bother to try that is.

This is Capcom!

Also, awesome video.

It'll be like one of those old Marvel/DC crossovers where Spider-Man meets Superman. At first, they will assume the other is an ENEMY and they will FIGHT, and then they will discover they are NOT ENEMIES and then they will find a BIG ENEMY to fight TOGETHER.

Lost Planet 2 bundle

Quote

Microsoft is putting forth its best effort in the hope that Japanese consumers who want to play Lost Planet 2 won't just buy it for the PS3, which they already own. The company has announced a Lost Planet 2 Xbox 360 bundle, to be released May 20 for ¥24,800 ($265) in Japan.

The set includes a 60GB Xbox 360 with a D-connector HD cable, the game and a headset. It'll also include bonus Lost Planet content -- on a 2GB USB stick; taking advantage of the new Dashboard update that allows such drives to be used as 360 storage devices! This bonus seems destined to become a standard for special-edition Xbox 360 bundles.

yeah, the versus demo was bad. the monster hunter co-op one was fun, and I liked versus in LP1, but versus in LP2 is bad bad. It's just a bunch of staggering and grenade spam.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #27 on:** April 02, 2010, 12:54:17 AM »

My little confession is that I didn't especially like the original Lost Planet and in general I don't like the way Japan handles nearly all of their "shooter" games. They feel weird and not natural after playing years of American shooters.

I really want to like Lost Planet 2 though because it looks cool but I have a feeling deep down I won't.

cool breeze · « **Reply #28 on:** April 02, 2010, 12:55:01 AM »

In general you can avoid grenade spam by having alternatives, but it seems like grenade spamming is the best option. Guns are like peashooters in this game and they haven't improved any of the movement controls to let you dodge the grenades, which have a huge blast radius btw, since the first game. You have a pissy little run now, but it is an awkward locked animation.

Feels typically Japanese as a MP shooter.

Meaning I'm pretty sure I won't touch the MP part.

This is what I want to do but impressions have been saying that the whole game is multiplayer-centric. I don't want to miss out on that.

Is the Bore going to get together for some LP2 goodness when it comes out?

I'm interested to try the co-op campaign. I'll probably gamefly it for that and try to play with anybody who gets it here. But I can't see that MP really pulling me away from the games I already currently play MP.

This game is a full of fail.

What the hell went through the design team's mind i'll never comprehend. Lets get rid of the single player since Lost Planet 1 sold due to the MP, let's make CO OP the big thing, let's completely do away with the characters and focus on delivering a Monster Hunter kind of thing.

What the fuck. Couldn't they had made a new game? Instead of calling it Lost Planet 2?

I'll probably pull this one out of queue.

Had issues with the first and if IGN who likes everything doesn't like the second, I have a feeling I'm not going to like it either.

How about you guys rent the game and judge it yourself instead of letting a game reviewer tell you what to do.

I didn't especially like the first. I didn't like the multiplayer demo. And a review site that slobbers over any and everything also says its bad.

That's enough for me to not rent it unless hands on impressions from other people are terrific.

I'm still getting this. I enjoyed the original's multiplayer quite a bit, and the demo was pretty fun. Don't think I care too much about the co-op and wish that there was a story mode like the original had, however.

Gamespot review: 5.5

http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/lostplanet2/review.html

Capcom is really turning a tide. Went from making great "next-gen" games, to shitty ones like this, Dark Void and Bionic.

I hope Capcom won't rape my Resident Evil. Oh wait, they already did. Let's just hope they won't ruin Dead Rising. Though I fear the worst...

I enjoyed parts of the first one, but the only problems I had were glaringly obvious design flaws that I expected would be fixed the second time around. I guess not.

I don't think the original reviewed that well anyway, so whatever. I really liked the multiplayer demo of LP2, and I played the hell out of the first game online. You can't go into LP thinking it'll be like Gears or whatever, it's a very unique experience and requires different tactics. I'll definitely be grabbing this day one!

The first one was an ok arcade action game. Like playing an old quarter shooter similar to contra in 3d. The controls were kind of bad and the story was lolz, but it was decent. People liked that multiplayer though.

I would've cared about LP2 if it had a single player like the first game but with better controls and cooler stages/bosses. Don't care about MH so LPMH2 doesn't do anything for me.

bork · « **Reply #58 on:** May 11, 2010, 01:07:35 PM »

Did some multiplayer versus and it was a lot of fun. The controls feel tighter than the original and the use of B for multiple actions is not a problem. There's some little nods to other games like custom tags ("Street Fighter," "BSAA," "I've covered wars you know," etc.) and character parts (Servbot head, Frank West backpack) available too. You can choose from five character factions (Rounders, Fight Junkies, Snow Pirate Elites, NEVEC Black Ops, and Femme Fatales) and customize their looks, emotes, abilities, weapon types, and tags by unlocking stuff and leveling up.

I have a feeling that the game's major problems are in its campaign mode, but that's not why I bought it. I loved LP1's multiplayer versus.

Jansen · « **Reply #59 on:** May 11, 2010, 01:54:54 PM »

well gamestop forced me into a purchase (tried to cancel last week and was told it had already been packaged) so if anyone wants to do some co-op or versus hit me up. GT: xeroxinlola
