Quantcast



With such a heavy focus on co-op and the inclusion of certain characters in Lost Planet 2, I was starting to wonder if there would be any sort of serious story elements in the game, or if you'd simply be tasked with moving from area to area, killing everything in your way.

The latter choice would have been perfectly acceptable in my book; not every videogame has to tell a gripping narrative. Based on this latest trailer, though, a full story will be present. Capcom just hasn't been showing off much in the way of cut scenes so far.

Plus, giant boss battles make for better marketing. If you've got four minutes of free time, why not spend them watching this Lost Planet 2 trailer? It is indeed epic. Also, the pirate love can only be seen if you read between the lines (yes, you can read between the lines of a video).

Ridiculously over the top action, check. Incomprehensible story, check. Yup, it's a Lost Planet game alright.

I played the demo and it was pretty boring as well...then I played with a group and got all the way to the boss. It was great fun and I love how the boss can even run away making you fail the mission. It's like a multiplayer Shadow of the Colossus

Wow, I don't really know what to say. The first half of the video was really stupid, corny and obnoxious, while the second half was just stupid and corny. I have never had something make me so disinterested in a game. I don't think I'll get this one.

Borrachos is Spanish for "drunks," by the way.

Yeah, I think I hear Liquid Snake in there. Cam Clarke's in everything, I swear, even if it's NOT him in this.

Also, is it just me, or did the transforming VS look like it's going to work exactly like Cypher from Virtual On?
