The co-op of Lost Planet 2 was truly one of a kind, few other games truly scratch that itch of tearing through pirates, NEVEC and Akrid alike with three buddies. For Capcom to have essentially left it to rot for years without ever fixing any of the issues playing on PC came with (namely Games for Windows Live) is a tragedy. Hopefully some day I'll be able to play the game again on PC with some buddies, new and old.
Lost planet 2 is my childhood through and through, this is a videogame I have wanted to be able to replay with my friends since the moment I moved on from Xbox to pc, this games coop is one of the best ever, i need this game back on GOG due to capcom neglecting the steam release for years now
Why this game? Imagine 3 friends and you sweep through a Jungle to harass some poor pirates and Akrid, then ride mechs to kick a towering Akrid Boss *sses. All of that aside, there's a f*king railway cannon for you to shoot the Dune worm to kingdom comes. Again, why? you ask, really? Why the hell not???
I used to play the demo over and over again on my PS3 back when it initially came out. When I finally got a PC and bought the game on that, it was amazing! The movement, the sound effects, the art direction; all resonated with me personally because it was all reminiscent of the media I grew up with and enjoyed (Lost Planet 1 also being one of the first games I played on the XBOX 360)
Even now I am still playing and going for full completion HOWEVER, I know many others can not. The issue of the game not running if your cpu has too many cores, the issue of Games for Windows Live STILL being a requirement in current year (insanity) but worst of all, CAPCOM straight up delisting Lost Planet 2 from the STEAM store for purchase... All roadblocks keeping many people from enjoying an absolute gem of a game that had multiplayer engagement in-mind from the start . It is my dream to see this game's online services populated again in both the campaign and multiplayer as well as making unobtainable content obtainable once again!
This game is a masterpiece a good long story with exciting gameplay the kind that makes u wanna go back and play that one mission again. Also they have a really fun lvling system with guns and equipment plus 4 player coop from back in the day is much better than it is now also as an fyi for people wanting to play lost planet two its on steam but doesnt like direct x and how many cores u run on so theres a video you can look up to change ur specs to work but it would be awesome if gog could fix it with their launcher
I got a used PS3 physical disc because the PC version was delisted but the disc i have is not working even though there's no scratches on the disc. Would be nice to see a GOG PC version since it still has Games For Windows Live and it has problems running on modern computers with more than 6 cores.
Lost Planet 2 was a very overlooked game back in the day and is a hidden gem to this day. It had some of the most fun co-op for it's time, and had a competitive mode for people looking to test their skill against others. The setting of the game was diverse, with each story episode offering new characters, locations and enemies. Sometimes the game felt like Monster Hunter when you're battling it out with giant insectoid aliens, and other missions had you creeping through dilapidated slums fighting human militia. Capcom has let this game and the series collect dust for years, it deserves a second chance.
Great mutiplayer, fine singleplayer
I don't care if it is "too Japanese" or whatever lame excuse they gave for it not selling as well as they wanted. Its a fun time
Well there's a lot of things that make lost planet 2 special but one thing I admire about it its almost like monster hunter in the future has lots of weapons that you can unlock and even character customization, multiplayer pvp and pve these are its most important aspects of the game cause that's where I fell in love with the game, it was the interaction of the player community and the experiences that we all shared, that and the gameplay was addicting. the steam release of lost planet 2 was missing its dlc releases in my opinion are things that should have been included in the steam release but never were, plus it was missing exclusive cheat code costumes you could get on console and those were amazing and i miss them, a lot, easily a 7 out of 10 for me and even though that seems like a lower score for somebody who wants to see this game freed from GAMES FOR WINDOWS LIVE it is a game that ill never forget and would buy it on release if I knew it would come back to a platform that has earned my respect

Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II PlusSEGA re-released in 2003 an updated version of Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II for the Nintendo GameCube in 2003 called Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II Plus.
Early in the effort to run unsigned code on the GameCube, people found that when playing PSO and connecting to a server using the GameCube Broadband Adapter, a regular PC could be made to pretend it was a server which would fool the game.
After making the connection, data could be streamed back to the GameCube, making it easy for hacking and false servers. Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II Plus was created in mind to fix this problem. Along with this problem, SEGA included extra content for offline with this game including:
- Episode II Challenge Mode, which was perviously only online.
- Perviously Online only quests, Seat of the Heart, West Tower and East Tower are now available offline.
- Central Dome Fire Swirl, a downloadable quest for the Xbox, is now available offline.
- The downloadable goods from Fake in Yellow quest are now available offline.
Aside from some extra cheat protection, Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II Plus ran exactly the same as the original version and all data from characters, items, ect, can be swapped between the two instantly.Action Fantasy Science fiction Sandbox
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake EaterMetal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is the follow up to Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. It is the first prequel in the series, taking the series to the year 1964. The player takes the role as the series' original antagonist, Big Boss, then known as Naked Snake.
MGS3 is the first game in the series to take place in a jungle. This unique setting created an opportunity for new mechanics. The player can adapt to the environment by swapping Snake's camouflage, hunt animals and gather plants for food. This iteration in the series introduced a new feature in which the player must apply medicine and perform medical procedures on Snake if he is damaged in combat. Apart from the survival themed features, the controls and gameplay of the game are very similar to Metal Gear Solid 2. Like other Metal Gear games, the focus is on stealth, but the player can go through the entire game like a shooter if they choose to. Throughout the game Snake acquires weapons of all types; non-lethal firearms, handguns, sniper rifles, machine guns, shotguns, sub-machine guns, and explosives.
Metal Gear Solid 3 was the first game to implement the CQC (close quarters combat) system. CQC allowed Snake to beat enemies down to knock them out, or put them in a chokehold to knock them out, kill them, or and/or question them.
Metal Gear Solid 3's health system required the player to occasionally pause the game and treat Snake's ailments. When Snake is shot, there is a chance that the bullet didn't pass through him, requiring the player to use a knife to remove the bullet, apply disinfectant, apply styptic and bandage the wound. This was done through a submenu in the pause screen. Other ailments the player must treat Snake for include: leeches, broken bones, burns, cut, arrow/bolts/needles, stomach sickness, colds, and food/venom poisoning.
Adding to the survival elements of the game, Snake Eater lives up to its name by requiring the player to scavenge food for Snake. Under the life bar there is stamina bar. If Snake does not eat any food the bar depletes, causing various effects. When the stamina bar is low, the player's ability to aim is severely handicapped, Snake's hands will shake in the first person aiming mode. Just like real life, Snake's stomach can also rumble, enemy soldiers can hear this, and will be alerted to Snake's presence.Action Fantasy Historical Stealth Survival Drama
