    Unfortunately, Lost Planet 2 is loaded with even more baffling design choices that often make it anything but enjoyable. The game doesn't play by any consistent set of rules. Sometimes, falling into water means instant death, yet some chapters take place exclusively underwater. You get a grapple hook to pull you to higher ground, yet there's no rhyme or reason to what surfaces you can grapple to. Furthermore, the game goes out of its way to wrest control away from you.

    • Fantastic production values, Loads of gameplay variety, A ton of online content, Competitive play can be good fun.
    • Abysmal friendly and enemy AI, Awful mission design, Relies too much on taking control away from the player, All sorts of small, deadly flaws.

    Lost Planet was a solid game but mostly a single player one. LP2 attempts multiplayer but compromises far too heavily on the single player experience. While having MP online support is nice the game shouldn't mandate its use, and the lacklustre AI makes the whole thing a mess. As does the writing. And the story. And... Pros Can be fun. Nice monster design. VS are cool to play with. Read more

    • Can't throw grenades while moving, godawful AI, underwater is idiotic, really not playable solo and not popular enough to find friends, incomprehensible story, some if...

    The original Lost Planet had much going for it, and on its release, delivered the goods. It was a straight-up third person shooter, which offered countless hours of solo and multiplayer entertainment. The single-player made a good attempt at a discernible story, with plenty of mechanised action and epic boss fights thrown in for good measure. Some time later, and upon its announcement, Lost Planet 2 appeared set to continue the tradition. Read more
