INTRODUCTION
Capcom follows up their zombie smash success for the
Xbox 360 with a new futuristic shooter that takes place
in the ice-covered wastelands of a frozen planet inhabited
by alien creatures known as the Akrid. Humans sought
to colonize this icy planet of E.D.N. III only to find
a new life form that had adapted to the cold environment
that the planet endures. Some of the humans gave up
hope from lack of weapons and left the new world while
others remained and banded together in a group under
the name of Snow Pirates in an attempt to defeat the
Akrid menace. The remaining humans discovered that the
Akrid carry thermal energy deep inside their bodies
so the humans created new weapons known as Vital Suits
that harness the power of that thermal energy in an
attempt to help them fight back against the Akrid threat.
Under routine investigation, a small band of Snow Pirates
stumble upon a man in a Vital Suit encased in ice by
the name of Wayne Holden. Wayne is taken in and treated
from his near death experience through the mysterious
life support system known as the Harmonizer attached
to his wrist. The only traces of memory that Wayne now
retains are his own name and the name of the Akrid that
killed his father, "Green Eye". In an attempt
to regain his memory by finding the Green Eye, Wayne
joins up with the small group of Snow Pirates that rescued
him and helps them seek out the Akrid menace.
Lost Planet is a 3-D action shooter that places
the player in the role of Wayne Holden, a literal one-man
army. Fight through each mission filled with in- your-face
action, tons of explosions, and epic boss fights to
delve deeper into the story of this hostile world of
extreme cold. Pilot Vital Suits (VS) and take the Akrid
nests by storm as you hunt down this alien life form
in an attempt to take back the planet and regain your
memory.
One rocket left along with an empty machine gun and
two grenades while Wayne reloads and recovers from a
near fatal attack with very little thermal energy left
- an empty Vital Suit equipped with a missile launcher
can just barely be made out through the smoke that now
fills the area from the last oncoming rocket - should
you make a run for it, or reload and pray the enemy
VS is stumbling when the smoke clears?
The situation above is an example of one of the many
action-packed moments that you'll endure through the
missions of Lost Planet. To put it simply, in this frozen
wasteland...
The Intensity. Never. Stops.
