Lost Planet 1 demo review




Lost Planet 1 was released in 2006-7 and was a good game I am certain. This demo proves that the series has tremendous potential. The game has nice visual appeal and the snow effects are ok. If anything the game is an interesting spin on the shooter wheel. The gameplay is solid and using the many guns and the mechs are a last. Fun is definately going to be had while making a go at the sotry in this sci-fi cinematic shooter. The level contruction is unique and the most interesting thing that seems apparent here is that this game is FPS at heart but is in fact third person. The game has minor camera angle issues because of this and definately suffers when you are in tight spaces inside a mech suit. Yet the gameplay is riveting. For as old a game is this is now 3 years later, it holds up to the 360 standard for change and gameplay. It is also worth mentioning that this game was a Capcom releaase and does not suffer from their bizarre control schemes that usually ruin gameplay. This is a very approachable shooter regardless of view.
The score is even higher here for making some bad ass enemy creatures to take on with a final score of 4.11 out of 5. Coming soon will be the demo review of Lost Planet 2. The game is solid whores, so strap up or strap on and get down to business for some good achievement whore gaming goodness. This is one of the better demos on live if you are ok with 3rd person shooters. If not you will have missed out on a great story and some fun cinematic gameplay.
