Lost Planet Collectors Edition

Lost Planet has great graphics, and has a good story. The story is that Earth died, so all the survivors abandoned Earth to go to this other planet which has extremely colder climates than Earth. The people have survived there for a little while, and discovered all sorts of creatures. The biggest, is Green Eye. You play the game as Wayne, a stubborn, young survivor who is working with his dad. In the beginning, you meet Green Eye, who doesn't give a very nice welcome. You run to the right, take the stairs and keep following the other people until you find a suit. Jump in the suit, and attempt to kill the giant lobster. Of course, you don't kill him, but your dad (Wayne's dad) gives up his life for you, by taking a hit from Green Eye. Horrified, you become a popsicle in your suit. Later, a group of people find you and let join their group. Oh, and don't worry! You'll meet up with Green Eye again, and this time, you have to kill him.

I'm new to the whole XBox scene so my current definition of difficult may change with playing experience, but I'll say this is a hard game to play. While you may be able to run through some parts without doing anything, when you play it out, it's intense. The graphics are incredible, the action intense and the story is okay. My major disappointment is the lack of coorperative play in the campaign. My daughter bought this for my birthday and when we went to play in co-op, like Halo 3, found it non-exisitent. This was a real downer.

I would like to see more XBox 360 games designed with co-op play against good AI and not just for the XBox Live arena.

Having waited for this game as long as a year and a half I can honestly say it is by itself a decent game. I put decent instead of great simply because after waiting for something for so long you (IE:myself) start to think that WOW this game is gonna be the best thing since sliced bread. Basically what I am saying is Lost Planet is a good game. I just expected and assumed it was gonna be SOOO much more. So in the end I let myself get too overhyped. The online is sweet though!! (WARNING for newbies! Link up with people you play with first because the online community is pretty tough on noobs) The main game is very scenic if snowny wastelands can be counted as scenic. LOST PLANET gets a soild 7.5 in my book. Thanks for reading!!
