User Rating: 8 | Lost Planet: Extreme Condition Colonies Edition (Platinum Hits) X360
I never played the original version of the game so go with it if my score is higher than what Gamespot gave it. Lost Planet: Colonies Edition is here. This game is all Sci-Fi basically. You are a soldier who just lost your father and got caught in the snow storm and you loose your memory (bummer). You are rescued and then go on the hunt to destroy the alien nests and pirates. Since this is the first version I played I can't say if the campaign has extended or shortened but playing at the Acrid (the aliens) was a lot of fun. I was a little frustrated that you needed these energy things that the aliens have in order to survive. I thought it was a waste of time to activate these pods that give you 500 of these energy balls. But I did have fun in those walking pods. The controls in Lost Planet are solid and makes it fun to play. The weapons are good to use and usually help you kill the Acrid (I used grenades....pretty noobish). The multi-player I didn't really pay attention to it as much but it was fun while I used it. The colonies edition comes with extra maps and, as I said before, you can play as the Acrid. The graphics are pretty good to look at especially in some places. The campaign is short as well. If you never played the first version and you want to play it...get this version. If you played the other version...don't expect a lot more from this edition. It's the same campaign except you play as an Acrid and new maps. That's it! Lost Planet: Extreme Conditions Colonies Edition blows right in with a 8.0 out of 10.
