Unleash Your Inner Akrid In Lost Planet Colonies
3:40AM Mike Fahey | Here’s a clip of the game mode that just might have me heading back to the icy reaches of Lost Planet all over again when Lost Planet: Extreme Condition Colonies Edition is released later this month. Akrid Hunt features a team of players going up against a player-controlled giant bug. Finally a chance to pay back those bastards for round after round of spawn-sniped in the head-repeat. Not that I ever sniped myself mind you. I like to think of it as surprise, long-range, precision brain removal. Those other guys? Dirty, dirty snipers. More »
How’s Lost Planet Colonies Lookin’?
5:30PM Luke Plunkett | Don’t know why Capcom bothered with all these. There’s 14 shots of Lost Planet: Colonies here, and they really only needed to send one, because when you show Frank West in naught but his Capcom-flavoured undies, we kinda get all distracted… More »Lost Planet: Colonies Trailer

3:00AM Flynn De Marco |Lost Planet Colonies Finally Announced
8:00PM Luke Plunkett | Capcom (may) have, via leaked mag scans, had the wraps taken off Lost Planet Colonies, the successor to snowy bug-killing simulator Lost Planet: Extreme Condition. What’s new? There’s a new playable character (that girl in snow gear) and in online play you’ll get the option of playing as the bugs against the humans. That online play will feature cross-platform play between PCs and 360s. There’s more weapons and more monsters to fight (including their eggs), and it’ll be out in Japan on May 29. Oh, and no word of a PS3 release as of yet. Bear in mind: all this info comes courtesy of a leaked magazine scan that’s been…modified to include super-awesome Xbox Japan boss Takashi Sensui, so until we get some more concrete info, take it all with a grain of salt.

1:46PM Michael McWhertor | Capcom’s announcement of Lost Planet: Colonies shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone when it hits next week. The trademark was filed last Spring and the ESRB rating hit last month. Yesterday, the Achievements for the Xbox 360 expansion to Lost Planet: Extreme Condition were leaked, posted, then pulled by Xbox 360 Sync. They don’t tell us too much about the game, other than that it would appear the game may have a serious multiplayer focus. We’ll know soon enough. Lost Planet: Colonies Achievements!
