Was thinking about Lost Planet 2 the other day by Capcom and how much I enjoyed it. I didn’t get the chance to play it co-op or multiplayer but Lost Planet 1’s multiplayer was fun, especially the mode where you can be an alien and fight snow pirates. I think the west just wanted another Gears Of War clone, and even though 2 took a lot of inspiration from Gears (it even featured it’s hero as an unlockable character) wasn’t enough and critics and players panned the game. It’s hard today to find anyone even playing it anymore and it seems to be dead. Shame.
I don’t play videogames for good politics. I just enjoyed having a drill hand and also shooting lightning from my hands. It’s been a decade since I played it I couldn’t even tell you what the message was.
I wonder if I’d been less tankie if I hadn’t played anti-communist propaganda “Command and Conquer: Red Alert” as a kid. shrugs
