New DX10 features, multiplayer maps and free Xbox 360 content on the way...

Further DX10 improvements and new content is heading to Capcom's Lost Planet: Extreme Condition on August 10th, via a new patch and the release of a new multiplayer map-pack on August 16th.

Taking greater advantage of what DX10 has to offer, the patch utitlises Geometry Shader technology to improve overall visual quality through improved depth of field effects, better motion blur and fur shading techniques on opponents.

The patch will also implement a basic chatting system with the ability to communicate via four default messages in the lobby, in-game and after the match.

PC Map Pack #2 will also be available as a free download, including the following maps:

Battleground - an abandoned town scattered with rubble from ruined buildings, featuring indoor/outdoor areas with multi-level vantage points Lost Technology - a throw-back to the good ol' days of pixelated 8-bit gaming Ruins - ancient temples set amidst a lush jungle Ice Drop - a frigid glacier with lots of peaks, nooks and crannies.

Finally, not forgetting Xbox 360 owners, Capcom confirmed that the previously premium Lost Technology, Ruins and Ice Drop maps will be made available for free on Xbox Live Marketplace from August 16th. A further patch is also on the way to improve connectivity issues that some players have incurred.

to bring lost planet to the ps3 format was a good move but i do have this to say they should also bring gears of war to ps3 and gears of war2 when it comes out

I've got to be honest, I experienced no framerate issues while reviewing the game. Yes, PS3 games have been well known for it with previous ports/multi-format releases, but I experienced no slow-down at all (even during the busier boss battle sections). This is PS3 game that doesn't have that problem.

This is one of the most honest reviews for this version I have read next to Game Informer, and Playstation the official magazine. PSM3 and IGN are full of it

The framerate issues are blown way out of proportion by what I suspect to be xbox fanboys masquerading as un-bias editors. Don't believe the horrible scores, the game is not exacly the same but it is far from unplayable and the framerate is stable 80% of the time and when it dips it never gets that bad. The graphics are spot on with the 360 with the only differences being lighting and fire effects. I have played both versions and one is not overly better then another. The 360 one runs marginally better but the PS3 gives you all the DLC for free. If your on the fence just buy it, it is a great game. I bought it yesterday and I am glad I did.

You forgot to address the constant frame-rate problems plaguing this game.

Excellent, it's a shame Capcom haven't done enough to differentiate it from the 360 version, it makes forking over £40 much harder, especially when the 360 version can be found for a mere £20 if you look hard enough
