Starting on September 8, you can save a good $20 by purchasing Dead Rising, Lost Planet: Colonies Edition, and Devil May Cry 4 together in one Capcom lovefest bundle that's making it to retail at $39.99.
Now is as good of time as any to pick up these fine wares, if you ask me. I happen to be one of the few humans on this planet that didn't fall head over heels for Dead Rising (I still liked it; don't kill me!), but it would be hard even for me to turn down at this price.
I couldn't tell you how well Lost Planet has aged, but I remember enjoying my time with it during launch. As for Devil May Cry 4, sure, it needed more Dante, but it wasn't horrible or anything. It's also got to be one of the few current gen games in my collection with a frame rate above 30, which is a major plus.
And greatness? It's earned.

A link would be nice.
It's too bad the only game I don't own is lost planet, but played through it.
I got Lost Planet on PC and it's a very underrated game in my opinion... great graphics and good shooting action, though the story is lame.
Never played DMC4... not really my kind of game, but I hear it is excellent if you like those games.
-Rolling makes you invincible
-Uncontrollable movement animation (eg: like stumbling)
-You get 10-15(!) Grenades by default rather than 2-3. Grenade spam on the smaller maps is horribly common place.
-A frontal hit interrupts any action including shooting back.
-One must stop moving in order to change weapons.
Still the multi is a lot fun, especially Akrid Hunter and on the big maps with VS suits. Broken but fun.
I'll chime in with everyone else about how this is a mandatory purchase for those just getting a 360, or those who don't own the games. DMC4 is an incredible action game (superior to NG2, I'd say), Lost Planet is a very solid 3rd-person-shooter, and Dead Rising is a must-have for any fan or horror or zombies!
it was decent in almost everything it did. Its a good game for $20 but no reviewer could really tell people to get it for $60.
If only I didn't own 2/3 of these games this would be a steal. great for late 360 adopters.
pass. :/
Oh and expect Michael Pachter to come out and say something like this was "his idea" too.
I agree with everything you said.
DMC4 was good until it makes you play the entire game over with another character, making the game pretend it's twice as long.
And Lost Planet was pretty fun, too bad it pretty much had the stupidest plot of this generation, even if you turn your brain off you'll probably still get confused and or face palm by the end.
