Lost Planet - Reading Glasses Not Required News
Capcom assures us that the text issue that plagues the multiplayer demo and Dead Rising won't be a problem - here's the pics to prove it...
By Chris LeytonPosted: 29/11/2006
Following the storm of controversy from disgruntled SD TV owners that followed the ineligible text in Capcom's Dead Rising, the Japanese publisher today promised to rectify the situation in its forthcoming Xbox 360 title, Lost Planet: Extreme Conditions.
After the recent release of the multiplayer demo, it had seemed as though Capcom were making the same mistake, with many complaints that scores in the 'Elimination' game type were too hard to read.
However it seems Capcom are listening to the criticisms of 360 owners with an update that boosts the size of text in the multiplayer mode if you're not playing on a HD screen - as you can see from the accompanying screens. Capcom assures us that all dialogue in the single-player is voice recorded, whilst updated objectives can easily be checked on the pause screen.
Our only question, why can't Capcom release an update to address the one issue that thwarts the otherwise superb Dead Rising?

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
