karka Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 (edited) Lost Planet is a 360 exclusive title by Capcom. From IGN: Lost Planet takes place in a freezing cold world of giant glaciers. People, calling themselves Snow Pirates, wear so-called Vitality Suits to explore the harsh frontiers of this world. The cold isn't the only thing to fear, though, as mankind isn't the dominant species in this world. That honor goes to the monstrous Eecrid. The main character was once saved by the Snow Pirates and, having lost most of his memory, remembers just one thing: his father dieing at the hands of the Eecrid. Some big names are lending their talents (and faces) to the development of this game. Keiji Inafune (Onimusha, Dead Rising, Mega Man Battle Network) was announced as executive producer with Jun Takeuchi (Onimusha 3 and Resident Evil 5) listed as producer. Kenji Ohguro, a designer on both the original Onimusha and part 3, is chief designer for the game and is also co-directing with Shin Kurosawa, who wrote the screenplay. Continuing the tradition started with Onimusha (but not inherited by Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams), the main character in Lost Planet is based off a real person. Capcom has based the character off Korean star Byung Hun Lee, one of the most popular Korean personalities in Japan right now. At the unveiling event, Lee claimed to be a big fan of games like Resident Evil and Onimusha, while Inafune claimed personal respect for Lee's work, so everyone seemed happy. And gamers outside of Japan should be most happy of all, as Lost Planet has first person style gameplay! You actually play from behind the back of the main character, controling the character directly, or boarding a mech to do battle. Online play through Xbox Live is one of the main points of the game, Inafune revealed at the event. For the trailer: http://www.capcom.co.jp/lostplanet/trailer.html And for screens: http://media.xbox360.ign.com/articles/674/674990/imgs_1.html It looks damn good!

ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 (edited) Sorry reading the freezing cold bit after those 360's catching fire just made me laugh. Ok wiped away the tears 1. I've seen it before 2. It looks good 3. I have a thing for mech games. Especially the Japanese ones. 4. Still wont be buying a 360. 5. Does it have a release date ? Edited December 11, 2005 by ShadowPaladin V1.0 I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now. Deals like this kills development studios. 478327[/snapback] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musopticon? Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Frank Herbert's Dune is snow. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai. So let us go and embrace the rustling smells of unseen worlds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darque Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Capcom doesn't know the meaning of the word "exclusive" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanschu Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Yes they do. For example, the PS2 version of a RE can only be played exclusively on a PS2. If you try running it in an X-Box, it doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Child of Flame Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Ditto. It'll be ported to the PS3, and maybe even the Revolution, depending on how powerful it is relative to the 360 in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musopticon? Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 I couldn't make out whether other monsters then those burrowing beasts or not. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.
