holy flarging crap!!! please let this mean that culdcept saga will release in the states! there are very few games that desperately need an update, and culdcept has always been one in my eyes.

one can only hope that they won't have that horrid music and voice overs any longer.........tho it did lead to hilarious moments like, "Giant Rat.....versus......Wll of Ice"

I had no intentions of buying a 360 until I heard about Culdcept Saga. Yes, I'm perfect willing to buy a system for that game.

Intense game, but is it really fun to play?

I was thinking the same thing, I will have to play it a couple more times but I don't see myself playing this for more than a few hours. As of now it's a AAA renter.

The lost planet demo was better than I had hoped.

Just checked the Culdcept SAGA trailer, and it looks more like a PS2 game than something that the 360 could produce.

meh, that's fine with me..........Culdcept for PS2 was a port of a PS1 or Saturn game, if I remember correctly........the sprite characters always looked like crap (low rez, 3 frames of animation...) but the game was just so much fun, regardless

with it being on xbox 360, it can have online multiplayer (great for when i just can't get 4 players to come over), downloadable content (more cards! joy!), and most importantly.....analog stick control of the cursor!!!! :)

it wouldn't matter to me if it didn't gain any graphical improvement. an internet enhanced version of the PS2 game would make me happy

Another one giving big ups to the Lost Planet demo here. It is just so visceral.

I've not felt pyrotechnics this... well.. meaty before. Great stuff from Capcom.

I'll keep an eye on Lost Planet in the future, moreso than I would've before the demo.

On another note, was anyone else a little underwhelmed by the new Too Human trailer? Maybe my expectations were just set too high, but the sounds of the weapons clanging against Baldur's robotic foes didn't sound right and the melee animations seemed a bit disjointed and repetitive.
