You've just watched your father get crushed by some green-eyed swine in the intro level. Sure, there are a few humans knocking about, but in essence they're just smaller, less visually impressive things to kill. It's level after level of rampant insecticide, with very little in the way of diversion. But I don't think I'll be offending anyone at Capconi by suggesting that it's as far from rocket science as. Ost Planet Has rockets, and it also has science. Once inside a VS, you can jump large distances, transform into a tank or just hover and stomp about riddling enemies with Gatling gun bullets, missiles and the like.
Wayne has access to six types of Vital Suits ('great big mechs' to the rest of us). You can only carry two weapons, but Wayne has access to more than a dozen including shotguns, machine guns, sniper rifles, a grappling hook and a multitude of explosive devices to see off bugs and rival Snow Pirates alike. Your frozen world is overrun with insect-like creatures known as the Akrid, including flying arachnids that dive-bomb you from above to armoured beetles that curl up and roll you over like pastry. Lost Planet already has smooth mo-cap animation, beautiful HDR lighting, motion blur, atmospheric arctic environments and Hollywopd-standard fiery explosions. Along with a team of Snow Pirates called Rick, Luka (love interest) and Yuri, a conspiracy unravels (gasp!). Wayne Holden is the amnesiac hero trying to find an Akrid creature called the Green Eye that topped his dad.
Multiplayer is being tailored for PC, so consolitis will hopefully be avoided in its game types of Elimination, Team Elimination, Post Grab (the capturing of reinforcement posts) and Fugitive. Keep an eye on your vital kill-fuelled Thermal Energy. Lost Planet is set on a sub-zero world called EDN III, where all the buildings are half-buried in snow. It also includes massive deadly mechs you can climb into and blast Starship Troopers-style alien bugs with the biggest, most spectacular explosions this side of a 19-inch widescreen monitor. It promises major graphics improvements over the already-impressive Xbox 360 version, including higher-res icy textures and even more gorgeous lighting, and Lost Planet will also include mouse control and a lobby system for multiplayer designed especially for PC. After The Disappointment of the Resident Evil 4 conversion to PC, it seems Japanese games giant Capcom are determined to set things straight with the forthcoming release of frozen sci-fi third-person shooter Lost Planet: Extreme Condition.
