    Good game with one massive problem. The game is actually registered as an entirely different game to the normal version on the same console. They completely split the playerbase and the amount of people to pick up the colonies edition is so few it will always be hard to play online. Myself and a friend didnt realise this was the case. We heard the multiplayer was pretty good and played theGood game with one massive problem. The game is actually registered as an entirely different game to the normal version on the same console. They completely split the playerbase and the amount of people to pick up the colonies edition is so few it will always be hard to play online. Myself and a friend didnt realise this was the case. We heard the multiplayer was pretty good and played the multiplayer demo which is still on Live. We assumed colonies was like any other special edition and just included the download content from before. One of us bought colonies and the other bought a pre owned copy of the original only to find we had the same game but couldnt play each other. Seems like such a huge mistake to make for one of the worlds biggest publishers Capcom. Its not worth the hassle.… Expand

    This game is only worth buying if you didnt pick it up the first time round. This company should be working on better titles not re-making old ones.

    A worthwhile bargain purchase for hardcore LP fans and for anyone who missed the title the first time around, but this is not going to knock everyone off their feet nor is it a "must play" for anyone with less than a fanatical interest in the original.

    It's the same game as before, but better. Lost Planet isn't perfect, but it looks good and is certainly different from the other third-person shooters out there. [Issue#34, p.97]

    Overall LPECCE is something of a contradiction. While its additional features are aimed at the hardcore lovers of tundran gaming, the fact that it is incompatible with the original Lost Planet is mystifying. Forcing players to start from scratch, with their only reward being some more achievements is an unnecessary irritation.
