Support NeoGAF

[John Harker]

Pretty good. Looks way more interested to me than LP2 did... yah back in the snow!

Shame, too, because I bought an Xbox 360 for Lost Planet. That was a great game with a terrible story and premise. Hopefully they fix that up, I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

 

[def sim]

I hope this turns out alright. We don't get much pattern based shooters these days.

What a horrid pose.

 

[Warm Machine]

After LP1 gave you forced animations with no recovery time I can't see how anyone would champion another one made by Capcom themselves. LP was a frustrating gameplay punisher mess with an awesome look.

 

[AuthenticM]

This game kinda looks alright. Like a B-tier game.

 

[Schmitty]

What happened to the other protagonist from 1?

 

[PhaZZe]

So much preorder for PC

 

[nailbombxx]

We should have gotten EX Troopers instead of this.

 

[Fezan]

trailer looked nice and not another cover based shooter is a plus in my eyes

 

[victimroyalty]

Never really cared about the Lost Planet series. Bought the first one on sale years ago for about eight dollars. Worst eight dollars I ever spent.

 

[FrostuTheNinja]

We should have gotten EX Troopers instead of this.

You read my mind.

Speaking of which, I need to import it.

 

[Square Triangle]

R.A. Dickey?

 

[Save 'N Quit]

Hunk is playable?

Even though he's part of a preorder exclusive, that's still like the only positive thing this game has going for it right now.

 

[Raide]

Enjoyed LP2 and co-op, so I will keep an eye on this.

 

[Zeal]

Main character on the box looks like Christian Bale from Dark Knight Rises.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Dead Space?

That's what I thought. How did Capcom blow this series when they were one of the first new franchises going when the 360 launched?

 

[The_Monk]

I never managed to into Lost Planet series, I wonder if I will like this one better.

 

[Teknoman]

That's what I thought. How did Capcom blow this series when they were one of the first new franchises going when the 360 launched?

The seriously messed up part is that imo it seemed like an old school contra style shooter in 3d done right. The series could have really took off with 2, having to deal with two drastically different climates...but they just seemed to not know what direction to take the game.

I'm surprised he hasn't gotten his own game yet.

That is what revisiting Raccoon city should have been.

 

[inky]

Just let it die please. You already wasted all the potential there was in LP1.

 

[HardRojo]

Totally forgot about this, wasn't LP3 revealed during Capcom's last Captivate? That was ages ago, I don't think many people are that hyped for this title.

 

[Takao]

You're telling me they do not have any Japan only games to be released?

At the moment, they have no Japan-only stuff in the public pipelines for those platforms.

 

[madmackem]

I really do wonder if people will laud this if it has modern controls, something a few people have been moaning at tomb raider for doing. Strange this game business.

 

[Riposte]

Ah, the Lost Planet 3 I didn't want while Ex Troopers remains locked in Japan.

It isn't locked in Japan though. Not on PS3.

After LP1 gave you forced animations with no recovery time I can't see how anyone would champion another one made by Capcom themselves. LP was a frustrating gameplay punisher mess with an awesome look.

Punishment is good.

 

[dragonflys545]

Definitely Nicolas Cage

 

[JazzmanZ]

The cover has glasses-less gordon freeman, and some of the enemies look like portal sentry bots.

huh.

 

[xXBetter Off DadXx]

The guy looks like Nicolas Cage.

Came in to say this.

I'll gladly play this game pretending I am playing my long awaited Nicholas Cage action game!

 

[RiZ III]

That is one ugly ass cover, but I'm not going to lie, I'm pretty excited about this game. So glad they are returning to the frozen wasteland setting.

 

[Lyonaz]

I for one am excited about this game and the Nic Cage look-a-like protagonist is a plus in my book! Will get on PC.

 

[Xbudz]

CagePlanet3

 

[geebee]

I can't get over how stupid the character faces look in this game...

 

[dragonflys545]

I wonder if this game will be worst than Turning Point and Legendary.

 

[KingJ2002]

The game looks good... i hope it plays as well. This franchise has been a disappointment seeing that it's original intent was to rival other large franchises like Halo. Im not sure which way Spark will take this... but the first person mech experience seems like a let down already.

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

Trailer - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zV8yQmUz5Dk

cool concept for the story

but man, the technology running this game is ass; the lighting, the animation...URGHH

why didnt Capcom translate MTframework for their western partners?!

 

[v1oz]

This is somehow a step back from Lost Planet 2 in graphics. Especially faces.

MT Framework > Unreal Engine

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

Main character looks like if Kevin Costner and Yakov Smirnoff had a baby

 

[ArjanN]

I see that now DmC is out GAF needs a new game to hate on for reasons that have little to do with the actual game.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

Dead Space 3:On Ice!

ICE TO SEE YOU!

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

Oh yeah, this game exists.

damm I was gonna post that

 

[Dereck]

Does this have co-op campaign?

 

[Daante]

This will look freaking awesome maxed out on PC aye?

Edit - Whaaaat! , not MT framework engine /cry

 

[Furio53]

I see that now DmC is out GAF needs a new game to hate on for reasons that have little to do with the actual game.

Hate on main character is funny. GAF hates all the bald space marines. do something different? Looks dumb!

 

[PSGames]

Had no idea they were even making this. Loved the first Lost Planet.

 

[Supermanisdead]

Alex Rousseau?

 

[xXBetter Off DadXx]

CagePlanet3

Hahahahaha, hell.yes.

 

[Dark Ninja]

I see that now DmC is out GAF needs a new game to hate on for reasons that have little to do with the actual game.

Hating on the art has a lot to do with the game. The little gameplay they've shown looks super janky as well

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Alex Rousseau?

.

 

[Samir Sedlar]

Doesn't this remind you of Red Faction: Armageddon ?!, I mean it got the same potential of a good horror game, but it feels it is missing the point.


I am not sure that LP3 gameplay is up to par, the monsters look cool, and the environment looks interesting, the characters not so much, and when everything come together it feels all out of place.

 

[lowhighkang_LHK]

I always liked the first Lost Planet for it's star ship troopers feel it gave. Never really had any interest for the second one.

I don't mind this one taking a more horror approach, I'd rather have it more deliberately paced like a horror game than for them to go ape shit call of duty and just have dude bro explosions because they can't figure out what else to do.

 

[Heart Attack]

If Capcom is wise, they would price it at $40-$30. It's still gonna bomb, but at least it would sell more units.

 

[antitrop]

Can Spark Unlimited make up for Legendary: The Box?

Probably not.

 

[Ryuuga]

"Strap in and hold on tight, Jimmy! We are headed for the bargain bin!"

What happened to your disgustingly optimistic outlook?
