From the well planned and executed single player campaign to the never-ending online battles, it’s one of those rare games where you feel like you got every penny’s worth and then some. [JPN Import]
Japanese developers need to bring more class games like this to our markets to remind us that not every game needs to be western in origin, ideas, and style.
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition да, я ждал её так долго на РС, но когда она там вышла, у меня уже был Xbox 360 и проходил я игру именно на этой консоли, минуя все, как выяснилось, писишные тормоза и косяки.
Мои запросы к игре были очень высоки и........ они оправдались! Игра просто великолепная, во всем.
Начнем с сюжета. Ну, тут классический японский сюжет с потерей отца, местью и предательством, норма.
Теперь геймплей. В то время на пару с Gears of War один из лучших на консолях!
Персонажи. Ё маё они великолепны. Прописаны прекрасно. Анимация просто класс. Чем то похожи на DMC 4, но это Япония!
Боссы!!! Тут я просто не знаю! До сих пор (2020 год) в играх я не видел столь великолепных боссов. Невероятно красивые, каждый со своим подходом. Конечно это только акриды, люди, роботы попроще. Но все же!
Отмечу ещё графон и мехов для 2007 года они были просто идеальны!
Ну конечно всё это просто объединяет, дополняет, углубляет АТМОСФЕРА!
Эта игра лично для меня стоит на одной ступени с BioShock, The Last of Us, Deus Ex: Human Revolution!
Жаль, что Capcom так обосралась с Lost Planet 2! Столько было ожиданий и .... Это надо уметь, чтобы сказку превратить в такое дерьмо, что волосы дыбом, и все, чтоб угодить тогдашней моде на коопы и т.д.
Была ещё третья часть, но это другая история. Не те люди, не те деньги, не тот размах.
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition пока единственный бриллиант во всей этой франшизе.
In spite of missteps, if you can find yourself enjoying what Lost Planet does well (which is a lot), you’re bound to experience one hell of a ride that at times gets close to perfection, but just happens to miss its mark.
A little restraint may have resulted in a stronger game, but Lost Planet: Extreme Condition has its grand moments when you escape a wild shootout in supreme satisfaction of your dirty work. [Feb 2007, p.40]
Playing Lost Planet is like battering "Ghouls and Ghosts" for the first time. You simply won't believe how stunning it looks. But more imortantly, it's one of those games that pits you against incredible odds and satisfies by making it just about possible to beat them! [Jan 2007, p.8]
It’s great for a while, and then takes a steep nosedive into the realm of mediocre shooters. The potential was there, but the sloppy implementation of features is ultimately Lost Planet’s downfall.
At the end of the day, playing Lost Planet is like dating a supermodel with personality problems: it's great looking and has the potential for good times, but ultimately, it's just not worth the trouble. [Feb. 2007, p.64]
Lost Planet is nothing entirely unique, but it's a fine experience if you're into third person shooter/mech hybrids. It's a rather quick game to buzz through; I finished in about 4-5 hours on normal difficulty, earning 175 gamerscore. The missions are pretty mundane but the boss fights are a decent reward. I enjoyed the musical compositions, the art style, and the T-ENG mechanic essentially "timing" the missions and keeping the player focused on efficiency. An additional positive was the option to change the player perspective from third to first person (only while on foot).
Most of my frustrations with this game are due to the clunky controls and pacing. Traversing missions on foot takes way longer than it needs to, and there's not much to look at along the way in regards to level design. The game encourages you to use a VS (mech) to get around when possible, but it proves to be pretty annoying in tighter spaces on certain levels. Larger enemies love to push you into corners or up against walls, stunlocking you and forcing the camera to stare at the ceiling so you have no clue what's happening. Also, be sure to position yourself in the perfectly precise frame to get the correct B button prompt, or you may end up removing your VS' weapons instead of entering it mid-battle.
Overall, I am confident that I will never revisit this game, but it doesn't belong in the dumpster.
Pros: music, boss fights, art style, t-eng mechanic, third to first person options
Cons: level design, controls, pacing, and forgettable/cheesy/cliche plot
Even despite it having been easily a decade since I first played this game, something about it has always remained memorable to me. From my first impressions of it, I could tell it was trying to do something different - it has a unique way of managing mechanics such as warmth, and it had many cinematic set-pieces for you to fight horrifying, glowing monsters within. However, as time has gone on and I have revisited the game a couple times, I can't help but realize how cookie-cutter the game felt. Could I tell you the names of any of the characters? No. Can I describe any plot point from the game's story? No. What I can tell you was how it felt to fight a giant bug in a mech-suit in below-zero conditions. To me, this game is the essence of style over substance, but that doesn't mean its bad - just average with glossy paint.
The original Lost Planet is just as bad as it's sequel,with pretty much all the same problems,including the broken checkpoint system which will send you back multiple levels......F*CK THIS GAME!
Un jeu Capcom ne saurait mentir : techniquement c'est du beau travail (souvent spectaculaire et toujours fluide) mais pour le reste, quel désastre ! dans le genre TPS c'est l'un des pires : le personnage est rigide et aussi maniable qu'un tank.
Lost Planet se perd dans les situations répétitives et déjà vues entre deux boss dont le design et l'équlibrage sont foireux (problèmes de caméra, points faibles dissimulés par une avalanche d'effets spéciaux inutiles). Quant à l'histoire ou au semblant d'histoire, ça se débat dans des cinématiques aussi nombreuses qu'ennuyeuses. En bref, un jeu d'action très mal dégrossi qui ne mérite aucune indulgence.
SummaryIn Lost Planet, human snow pirates navigate VS (Vital Suits) through hostile ice-covered environments, fighting against the indigenous Akrid creatures for the precious thermal energy they need to survive. For one such pilot named Wayne, death almost seemed imminent until he was fortunately rescued. However, he can only remember a few fra...
