Customer Reviews

Only An Expansion Pack - Great For Those New to Xbox
My son recently purchased an Xbox and this game. He enjoys this game a lot. Please note that this is an expansion pack game and will not be enjoyed by those that already have the original Lost Planet Extreme Condition game. The bad reviews are due to the disappointment of gamers seeking a new and different game. If you do not currently have the original Lost Planet game, you will most likely enjoy this one.

Brand New [...], I Cant Complain!
Brand new for ten Bucks, I Cant Complain! I got this at the Circuit City close out sale with a big discount. It came out to be cheaper than advertised as the case was mismarked.

This is not a groundbreaking game nor is it an awful game. Its your run of the mill action adventure game. Along the lines of Resident Evil, Dino Crsis, and Dead Rising. The only thing i hated about this game was the 2nd analog controller. You can only use it to alter your Z-Target as oppose to rotating the camera at a somewhat 360 degree angle. Why cant all games do Z-Targets like Zelda: Orcarina of Time? Nintendo really perfected that flawlessly! Instead Capcom releases this nonsense feature that doesnt have a good Z-Targeting system like Zelda.

However, i found this game to be enjoyable. I really wanted to rate this a 3.5, but i'll be generous and let this semi good-Capcom game slide. Other than that, i really enjoyed my purchase and would recommend this title only if you can get a copy for under ten bucks. Nothing more, nothing less.

Good package for the Lost Planet fan
I purchased this as a gift for my husband, whose maturity is well below the number of years he's spent on Earth. He loved it and also loved the new enhancements. My 15 year old nephew also enjoyed coming over and playing this game.
