"Late last month, we reported that Capcom were planning a Wii title similar to Lost Planet and Bionic Commando which would be announced over the coming weeks. Shortly after our story, Capcom announced the madcap Saturday morning TV style title Spyborgs, leading us to believe that Spyborgs was indeed the mysterious "or something like that" title. How wrong we were.

Issue #25 of NGamer Magazine features a very small preview of Spyborgs, with an enigmatic quote nestled within. "There's a bulle..."

"When you're done with the single-player game, you can go online and join 16 player battles. People from all over the world can play together. Since the game is not out in Europe yet, I found myself playing with a lot of japanese gamers. I was surprised by the lack of any lag even when my opponents were so far away. Online you have four modes: Elimination, Team Elimination, Post Grab and Fugitive. Nothing new here. Add 16 different stages and 6 item layouts and you have many hours of multi-pla..."

"Once you complete the install, which took us around fifteen-minutes, the load times were pretty much non-existent throughout the majority of the game that we have played. It was a bit tedious to wait at the start, but once that installation was done, the load times were lightning fast."

As you may recall DMC4 required 5GB of space to install the game before playing it, for the PS3 version. Well it seems Lost Planet has also taken the same route. Although unlike DMC4, the installation for Lost Planet won't have much on the screen, which may bore some of you for 15-20 minutes. Another sandwich break before playing.
One may ponder why capcom is doing this, will this be standard for all capcom games and will anything beneficial come out of it, lets wait and see.

Famitsu reports that Capcom's solid Xbox 360 shooter, Lost Planet: Extreme Condition, will be coming to PCs.
