Page 2 of 2 The last major game point of note is the health or Thermal Energy system. In essence the longer you stand around, the more heat is extracted from your body, likewise taking damage from the enemy will further reduce your heat reserves, reaching zero means activating the save point. Thermal Energy can be gained by destroying Akrid, and picking up the vital deposits left behind by their bodies. There are other ways to replenish heat, but generally this system keeps the player on the move, looking for more action. Graphically – on a HD TV the action is rendered spectacularly, especially in outdoor environments. Although your vision can be interrupted by the swirling snow, the spectacular explosions (some of the best I have seen rendered in a gaming world) and shuddering crunch of the larger Akrids is worth witnessing in glorious detail. All up, Lost Planet:Extreme Condition gets the job done. Despite the above review, it does not feel as innovative or hard-core as Gears of War, and the single player experience is somewhat short and uninspired. But generally this is a high explosive title that throws action at you at a constant rate. Multiplayer is fantastic and worth the coin shelled out on the title alone. {moscomment}
