Hi there,On Tuesday January 9th game developer Capcom invited Dutch and Belgian game journalists for a rather unusual press presentation of the game 'Lost Planet: Extreme Condition', a Xbox 360 exclusive.
The game sets place on the ice planet E.D.N. III and the guys from Capcom thought it would be funny to introduce the game in an ice bar in the heart of the Dutch capital.
By temperatures of minus 7 degrees Celsius the only thing I remembered is that a shot of Jägermeister kept me on my feet and that the game has some great features like multifunctional Vital Suits that are great to explore the vast spaces or to maul thousands of alien Akrids, some of the best explosions ever experienced in a video game and a great storyline.
Things even got better when I received a great miniature (see picture) of a PTX-40A, the ultimate Vital Suit, equipped with a brainwave-reading supercomputer which allows the pilot to control it by thought alone, as stated on the backside of the package.
Bad news: these magnificent collectibles aren't for sale. You can only cross your fingers and hope that one of the attending journalists will sell it on eBay. But trust me, that wouldn't be mine.
