Lost planet sucks.

I remember when I first heard about Lost Planet.

It looked like Starship Troopers on Ice, and with Giant Mechs. (Starship Troopers 3 on Ice).

I remember the commercial showing you killing a giant worm, thinking it was awesome, etc... I remember hearing about the heat source thing and thinking. "That's kind of cool. Like a time limit that you extend by KILLING and BLOWING THINGS UP." Now, much, much later, I have the game.

Where do I fucking start.
Let's talk about the basic combat; you get a Machine gun at the start of every level, with 300 Bullets, 1000 heat points, and 10 grenades. The machine gun seems neat at first, until you realize it's a horribly weak weapon and most enemies will beat the ever loving fuck out of you if you use it. The grenades? Ha. Assuming you can actually land a target, they're only good against human enemies and even then they can just dodge it. The Mech suits either dodge or don't take any damage. The best you can do is pick up some sticky grenades or disc grenades and then fucking pray.

The heat points? Don't even get me started on that shit. To recharge it, you've either got to kill every motherfucker in the area or find as many of those control points or whatever the fuck they are and activate them before you're attacked. And the volcano level? What the fuck is that shit? I STILL need the heat points in an ACTIVE FUCKING VOLCANO?

Speaking of being attacked, ever time you're hit, you flinch. Even when you don't get hit. Even when there's a goddamn loud noise you throw a big hissy fit and refuse to shoot. The main character is an enormous pussy by the way. Your typical Amnesiac asian hero. His name's Wayne. Fucking faggot.

Your friends? Well, you've got Shaun white's retarded clone who apparently doesn't need to protect the top of his head from the cold and his sister who wears the most bullshit clothing I've ever seen. She's got a Cleavage from here to next tuesday and wears a PLAID SHIRT AND A VEST.

AGAINST A PLANET SO COLD THAT YOU TURN INTO ICE WHEN YOU DIE.

The multiplayer is laughable. Shitty deathmatch and Control Point attempts with terrible maps and slow as fuck mechs.

By the way, the only good weapon is the Plasma rifle. Not that you can keep weapons between levels. Or heat energy. Or Mechs.

Don't touch this abomination of a game. I remember hearing they were considering doing Megaman Legends 3 with the same engine. Let's fucking hope not.
