Love it or hate it, you have to admit that Lost Planet is the best third-person shooter featuring a snowy planet filled with giant bugs to come out on current gen systems.

Those who skipped out on the game, however, may want to continue to not play it until Lost Planet: Extreme Condition Colonies Edition is released on May 27 for the Xbox 360 and PC, as it contains new maps, characters, modes, and more.

Some of the new content Colonies includes is shown in the gallery below, including the mode “Akrid Hunter,” which finally puts you in control of those damned oversized bugs. Also depicted is a cameo by a certain photographer that's looking surprisingly relaxed for a man who's wearing so little clothing for such frigid weather.

Anyone interested in Colonies, or are you all so content with Grand Theft Auto IV that you can't fathom purchasing another game so soon?

Reface: Yup, in the Desert. I played this a couple of months ago, so much fun. Especially the humans vs. bugs gametypes.

I loved the original, I'll be picking this up, hopefully I'll have beaten GTA by then.

This cover art should certainly ensure people keep buying used copies of the game.

Im sorry, is this just like an expansion pack to Lost PLanet? Or is this an entirely new game altogether? I liked lost PLanet, wasnt thrilled with the MP, but was fun none the less.

It's lost planet with a ton of extra content including a bunch of new shit and all the DLC maps and maps that weren't originally on the 360 version.

Screens look amazing. I played bits of Lost Planet but never bought it so I might just get this one when it gets released.

Good timing. I was just about to pick up Lost Colony in the store the other day (got Saints Row instead), but now I guess I'll just wait.
