Lost Planet 2 (Single Player) - What complete tripe! The first game honestly blew me away and even the whole thermal energy tick-down never bothered me. Overall it was just an amazing experience that was marred by its sequel. Gone was any semblance of a story or characters, the varied environments meant jackspit, AI allies that could not match up to the necessary human help; all to cater to the "online" people that are not even aware that a single player portion exists. The first time I played, I wasn't sure if I was accidentally online because the "campaign" starts in a lobby and even the AI have online-mimicking names.
And the worst part? It could have been good if the single player campaign was given though like the first one instead of being a strictly multiplayer experience. After renting for maybe a day and a half, I had to return it out of sickness.
