lost planet is one hell of a game
story
well your names wayne and your father was killed by green eye and all you can remeber is how to fight and basically you are seeking revenge but at the same time killing the akrid as you progress through the game.The akrid are tough but to kill them you must kill their heat life system which is an orange coloured thing on their bodys which has to be damaged to kill them,once you destroy this it turns them into ice and once you break the ice they leave you there heat which also keeps you alive on the planet this is capcoms amazing plan and its really is just spectacular and whoever thought of it needs a raise.
The best thing is that you can use VS machines to kill as well they are another way of beating your enemies.
graphics
In short stunning visuals and explosions makes these some of the best on the 360 and the smoke effects are just stunning it is really like being in an avalanche its eye blurging.
multiplayer
there are a 4 game modes
deathmatch
team deathmatch
post grab
fugitive
and amazing maps to play in with lots of places to go.
The maps have more to them than meets the eye for example lost coast has loads of hiding places for fugitve and it feels like each map was done slowly to create a savage multiplayer experience.
Like the single player you need heat to live in the multiplayer so there are heat machine like things that you stand in to keep your self alive.
verdict
lost planet maybe short but its explosive from start to finish never getting boriing and showing how amazing the 360 really is pick this up now.
