Product Description
Product Description
A decade has passed since the first game, and the face of E.D.N. III has changed dramatically. Terraforming efforts have been successful and the ice has begun to melt, giving way to lush tropical jungles and harsh unforgiving deserts. Players will enter this new environment and follow the exploits of their own customized snow pirate on their quest to seize control of the changing planet. Players will control their heroes across 6 interconnected episodes, creating a truly unique interactive experience that changes depending upon the actions of the players involved. The intense and action packed campaign mode comes with the ability to form teams of up to 4 players online to clear mission objectives with friends. Lost Planet 2 has a huge variety of hardware for players to unleash on unsuspecting enemies. Machine guns, shotguns, rocket launchers, lasers, sniper rifles, grenades and a host of other weapons are scattered across the game. However, Lost Planet 2's biggest weapons come on two legs: the heavily armed and armored robotic Vital Suits return in greater numbers and variety than the first game. There are VS that transform into other vehicles, hold up to three players and some that even take multiple players to operate.

Lost Planet 2, offers deeper insight into the world of E.D.N III, the fictional NEVEC (Neo-Venus Construction) Corporation's attempt to control the flow of Thermal Energy (T-ENG), that is the key to survival on the harsh planet, and the uncertain fate of mankind as they battle the huge insect creatures known as Akrid. A decade has passed since the events of the first game, and the face of E.D.N. III has changed dramatically. Terraforming efforts have been successful and the ice has begun to melt, giving way to lush tropical jungles and harsh unforgiving deserts. Players will enter this new environment and follow the exploits of their own customized snow pirate on their quest to seize control of the changing planet.
Gameplay
Lost Planet 2, like the original game in the series, is a third-person shooter featuring huge boss battles, challenging terrain and the ability to pop in and out of battle mechs, known in-game as Vital Suits. The primary difference in gameplay this time around hinges on the inclusion of RPG gameplay elements. Players can now customize many of the aspects of their playable snow pirate, including his physical attributes, clothing and to a certain extent, weaponry and gestures. Players will control these customized heroes across 6 interconnected episodes, creating a truly unique and interactive experience that changes depending upon the actions of the players involved. With this concept, players will have the opportunity to engage in the story in a much more dynamic way as plot threads evolve from different players' perspectives.
Multiplayer
Beyond the deep single player mode, Lost Planet 2 is loaded with extensive multiplayer modes and play options. This includes 16-player online versus action, as well as a 4-player online co-op support and two-player split-screen functionality in local co-op play. In addition, the intense and action packed campaign mode allows for 4-player online co-op play to clear mission objectives with friends, unlockable weapons and the ability to resurrect fallen comrades.
Weaponry and Gadgets
No action game would be complete without an arsenal of weaponry, and to that end Lost Planet 2 comes loaded with a huge variety of hardware for players to unleash on unsuspecting enemies. Machine guns, shotguns, rocket launchers, lasers, sniper rifles, grenades and a host of other weapons are scattered across the game. However, Lost Planet 2's biggest weapons come on two legs: the heavily armed and armored robotic Vital Suits return in greater numbers and variety than the first game. There are Vital Suits that transform into other vehicles, and even some that hold up to three players and take multiple players to operate. Also, the grappling hooks that made the gameplay in Lost Planet a true 3D experience are back, allowing gamers to gain tactical advantage by quickly scaling buildings.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Graphically there is not much to say. The game looks fantastic, your character is nicely detailed as are the imposing Akrid. There are some graphical glitches here and there particularly clipping. Music and sound effects are dead on with pumping musical scores that accompany the action and awesome weapon sound effects. (I just love the pumping sound of the rocket launcher reload ;)). The controls are tight and responsive.
In terms of replay value this game has tons, so its defenitily worth a full retail price in that this game will last you for some time. The campaign is lengthy (around 15 the first playthrough) with multiple difficulty modes to tackle. Then there`s the multiplayer which is shockful of playmodes and every battle is hectic and action packed. Then there is the training levels which help you hone your skills as well as serve as a challenge arena which reward you with points to use in the slot machine where you buy your upgrades, perks, weapons, and other goodies. The only complain I do have in this part is that there are way to many useless stuff (emotes, war names) that you might get over the good stuff (abilities, weapons). Although I like those extra things I just wish the ratio of extras to perks was more balanced. Still its kinda fun hitting the slot machine to see what you get.
This game is heavily focused on co-op. For me thats a huge bonus. Being able to play with friends, having to support each other in order to survive is one of the most fun experiences I can have in a video game. Not only is the co-op evident in the campaign but also in some multiplayer modes (special note VS annihilator). But if you choose to go solo I wanna say that if you have never played a shooter or simply lack the common notions of a video gamer, then you can believe what reviewers said, if not you will; as I did; find absolutely nothing wrong with the AI or difficulty of a solo play. If anything solo is kinda easier since the death of the AI partners dont count only yours unlike co-op and the AI IS helpful, it just wont win the game for you. Of course the game is much more fun with friends or human companions but its still enjoyable and challenging on your own. I highly recommend it.
The main problem with the critics was that the singlplayer was horrible and the AI was horrible, and that I agree with. However if you play online Co-op or multiplayer versus, the game is so much fun. Playing through the game on all difficulties was a blast, and there is a real difficulty ramp up from normal to hard. Weapons you unlock you can use for both campaign and multiplayer versus which is a plus. Levels can get repetitive though, since it's basically the same formula of fight your way to some boss and take down that boss using a specific strategy.
Unlocking weapons, though annoying at first becomes addictive and keeps you wanted to play more and more to unlock everything.
Also the PSN don't use mic rumors is pretty much true, although you will find some players who use mics and are willing to chat, which makes that gaming session a particular treat. You will also be gaming with many players from other countries, particularly I see a lot of Japanese players on during their time (late night, early morning for east coast people)
Overall if you like an arcade like 3rd person shooter with an addicting unlock mode then Lost Planet 2 is for you!
