Lost Planet: Extreme Condition was very fun to play at the start. It's unlike anything I've ever played before. Very innovative. It was exciting to explore the environment. Use the grappling rope. Fire away double machine guns with the mech and much more. However, the gameplay started to get boring after you play through 3-4 stages. It becomes very repetitive after awhile. Basically, in one stage, you have to kill as many enemies as possible and collect the Thermal energy to survive. Quickly, search and kill the boss, get outta there, That's it~. The only thing that makes you wanna go through this kind of game is the story. Somehow,I feel that the plot itself is a little broken. As the story continues, the plot becomes very predictable. There isn't very much in-dept about the characters' background either. It feels like they just appear without a proper introduction or how they are connected to the main character. Thanks to the poor English voice-acting, too.

The graphics is stunning. The aliens are pretty to look at as they are very well-rendered and detailed. As for the environment is pretty well-rendered too. However, there isn't much of a difference between Dx10 and Dx9 version as I had hoped, though. The sound effect is acceptable but not the poor voice-acting. As for the re-playability, well, after having finished this game, I think I'm going to left it on the shelf to collect dust. The multiplayer mode isn't much of a fun. After all, this game is pretty old for the X-box 360 and there are still issues with the game servers. After all, this game is the first game to support the Dx10 but its aging-engine doesn't really shows what Dx10 is capable of. Plus, the poor story and boring gameplay. This game is a total letdown
