Lost Planet Colonies Not Coming to PlayStation 3, Slap in the Face


A while back, Capcom announced at their Gamer's Day that they are bringing Lost Planet: Extreme Condition to the PlayStation 3, as an apology for moving development of Monster Hunter 3 off the PlayStation 3 and to the Nintendo Wii. The game, which was released last month, contained all the additional content as well as some new content.

Now, Capcom has slapped PlayStation 3 owners in the face. They've announced Lost Planet: Extreme Condition Colonies Edition. This contains multiplayer cross-play with the PC, along with new game modes and more such as Score Attack, Trial Battle Mode, and Off Limit Mode.

The addition content from the PlayStation 3 port of Lost Planet: Extreme Condition such as Luka, Frank West, Mega Man, and all the downloadable maps will be in Colonies as well.

New multiplayer modes will be present as well such as Akrid Hunter VS Annihlaator, CounterGrab, Point Snatcher, Akrid Egg Battle, and Egg Bandit. Four new multiplayer maps named Crossfire City, Area 921, Lost Arenan, and Assault Space will be available as well. New character models such as two new females, two new robots, and five other models have been added as well. A bunch of new weapons alongside those features. The game is launching at $29.95.

The catch is, that it's only coming to the Xbox 360 and PC. Please, tell me that isn't the biggest slap in the face that you've ever read to PlayStation 3 owners. For those who don't know, they released the (really bad, half-assed) PlayStation 3 version as an apology at a "budget price" of $40 last month with less content than this new edition.

Lost Planet Colonies Announced: Not for PlayStation 3

In a new magazine scan, Capcom finally announces Lost Planet Colonies, except it is not for PlayStation 3. I remember Capcom releasing Devil May Cry 4 as a multiplatform title to make "its titles available to as wide an audience as possible". Colonies was announced for the Xbox 360 & PC and should feature cross platform play, lets you play as bugs, and should be out in Japan on May 29, 2008. The scan does however feature Xbox Japan boss Takashi Sensui, so it's not so rock solid yet. We will let you know when we find out.

Lost Planet Colonies Announcement Next Week

According to CVG, due to a list of leaked Xbox 360 achievements, Capcom will be announcing it's upcoming Lost Planet Colonies next week. We have no idea what it's about, but expect snow. Expect for the PlayStation 3 version to play like crap compared to the Xbox 360 version if they have the same team working on it who worked on Lost Planet: Extreme Condition for PlayStation 3.
