On the other, I kinda wanted it to fail so that they'd go back to the old style of Resident Evil. On one hand, I’m glad RE5 sold so well.

The fact PS3 owners felt they'd been made to wait for no good reason didn't help, and in fact may have had even more to do with it - considering a good Bioshock port didn't do too well as a result with most PS3 forums knocking the game for arriving so late on the console and at full price. Really at the moment a solid, equal release on the HD twins is the way to go. Although clearly with Lost Planet 2 we're still seeing the effects of earlier arrangements between Capcom and MS.

Really impressed with the gameplay vids they've released. Lost Planet 2 actually looks very good graphically. Really impressed with the gameplay vids they’ve released.

They've managed to do well enough to establish it as another IP and they also released Colonies on 360 so I'd reason they'd be pretty happy with it thus far.
