Lost Planet to launch at discounted price

Frustrated PlayStation fans have been angry with Capcom recently. First, Devil May Cry 4 goes multiplatform. While that was understandable (as more and more titles go multi nowadays in order to turn a profit), when Monster Hunter 3 went to the Wii, PS3-owning Capcom fans shed a tear or two.

Hoping to put an end to their stream on bad news, they unveiled their "big" announcement. Capcom revealed that their previously Xbox 360 exclusive title, Lost Planet, would be arriving on PS3 in early 2008.

While this news certainly didn't hurt the PlayStation community, it didn't set it aflame either. Now though, it appears Capcom has made a smart decision in launching their year-old title at a discounted price for Sony's system. Instead of the usual $60 standard, Capcom will release Lost Planet at a reasonable $39.99. Considering that Lost Planet on the PS3 comes with all the downloadable content the 360 version at  a reduced price, it seems that Capcom may finally have something to please their PlayStation fans with.

More on Lost Planet soon.

    As long as Lost Planet and DMC4 are both better on the PS3 versions, I'll get both of them.

    Probably the best thing I have heard about concerning this game - but I still don't think it's even worth it - what a waste of time when there are so many other good games coming out, especially new ones - gotta "love" dem ports - especially the really bad ones.  Predicting 1,501 copies sold, all to children.....

    You rather as well wait for it as a greatest hits game.

    Now this is more like it.  They have me actually considering a purchase on this game.  If they do stuff like this they'll get some of us customers back.

    Just watched  the trailer seems a bit corny and lame story wise. Not interested, maybe they should reduce the price of a game that people actually want to buy.

    Guy’s i've played this game it's aright but nothing to shout about the online multiplayer is good but the single player game is very repetitive though, some nice graphics in there too, but it's not gow or killzone2, but if you like third person shooters and an extra map or two which the xbox 360 didn't get then get it because i think it will look better on ps3.
