I don't really care, given that LP2 is based around a bunch of faceless characters. They're probably unlockable player models or something.
This or possibly DLC

Pretty much sums up my thoughts on this trailer.

Got to love Capcom and their addiction to crossovers.

Gaming needs more crossovers, especially ones that make no sense (like a squad of ODST's dropping into the middle of Modern warfare 3 for no good reason).
I would play that. That would be f-in' sweet.

Worst Tuesday ever.

Not only do I just find out that Zero is only playable in the Wii version of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, but now I've completely lost interest in Lost Planet 2. I fucking hate Gears of War with an unburning passion.

In just a few years, Epic went from my all-time favorite game company to my all time most hated (right next to Bungie and Bioware) in a downward spiral.
You must stem from the "I hate anything and everything popular" school of thought.

I can't understand the people getting so angry about this; it's pretty obvious that they're just going to be alternate characters for the multiplayer.

Both Marcus Fenix and Dominic Santiago made an appearance in the trailer. Word is they will be exclusive downloadable characters for the Xbox 360 version of the game, and they won't play any role in the story mode.
It's pretty much stated there, they're not going to have any real presence in the story.

Close. I'm from the "Epic should have focused on UT3, instead of giving us the leftovers" train of thought. Nice try, though.

Based around faceless characters that have more personality than those unmasked gears characters.

You DO realise that on the Escapist, you're not really supposed to post stuff so directly inflammatory?

Aw sweet! It's things like this that show developers do have a sense of humour when they get drunk at award shows and conventions.

So this is the hyped-up cross-over? A couple of downloadable multiplayer skins for a sequel to an excruciatingly mediocre shooter? I was hoping for something different, y'know, something actually interesting.

Well... that was odd.

Cool trailer though. I especially liked the inclusion of the roadie run and Marcus and Dom walking away at the end looking like they were thinkinng "bunch of amateurs"

Also, how's it lost? THERE STANDING ON IT!
Because they lost the planet to the Akrid. Its not a "I've lost it, i can't find it" kind of lost. Its a "I've lost it, i don't have it anymore".

Think of it as the phrase of "I lost my virginity". You lost it, but you know where it is.

I played some of the first Lost Planet. It had a lot of teenagers saving the world when no one else could. Now they've added 2 of Yahtzee's favorite (/sarcasm) characters to it.
Ya, I can see how this will end up...
