"Capcom's "head of character contents business" Toshihiro Tokumaru was interviewed by his company, and while he talked a bit about the "Resident Evil" franchise and upcoming Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, he made a big reveal about Warner Bros. Pictures' big screen adaptation of Capcom's Lost Planet:
Speaking of "Lost Planet", that project will cost somewhere between 150 and 200 million dollars to make. The producer on the project is Avi Arad, producer of Spider-Man. I think that it..."
In the latest issue of weekly Famitsu, which brought you White Knight Chronicles' release date, comes a new game confirmation: originally slated as arcade-only, the newest Capcom Vs. fighter, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, will make its way to the Wii, releasing in Japan on December 11th.

David Hayter, the voice of Solid Snake, held a Q&A with fans during the Anime Expo, which was hosted in Los Angeles. During the Q&A, Hayter revealed that he is probably going to direct an unannounced action and adventure game and he will also be working on a screenplay for the film version of Lost Planet. Hayter is really looking forward to working on the Lost Planet movie, saying that he appreciates the core of the story.
Expanding on these rumblings of Capcom's upcoming secret projects, the company has said one of them will be 'a surprising take on a next-gen favourite.' Considering this recent interview with Street Fighter IV's producer, I'm betting on Lost Planet. How about you?
It was reported earlier that Capcom's upcoming port Lost Planet will require a 5GB installation, much like DMC4... however what they didn't mention is the fact the load times on the game are lightning fast thanks to the installation in comparison to the XBOX360 version.
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.
"First things first, the major news is that Street Fighter 4 is in development. No platforms were announced and the game is said to still be at least a year away, but a trailer was shown and it will surely find it's way onto the Internet shortly."
"Once costing 400 Points, the third set of multiplayer maps for Lost Planet have just become free today. Weighing in at 232.50 MB, the pack includes Ice Drop, Ruins, and Lost Technology. The content is available for ALL Xbox Live regions.
Looks like those who are used to the oddness of Lost Technology will be spending even more time showing newbies around and having them exclaim Ah dude, it looks just like something from Super Mario Bros.!."
"Ever since its release in January, Lost Planet: Extreme Condition has been a runaway success. The solidly reviewed Xbox 360 title was the best selling game on all non-PC platforms in January, selling over 408,000 copies in the US alone. By the end of February, that tally had shot up to in excess of 527,000 units, according to the latest Figures from the NPD group. To date, the game has topped the 1 million mark sales-wise worldwide.
Now, it appears that Lost Planet will be pulling another..."
Famitsu reports that Capcom's solid Xbox 360 shooter, Lost Planet: Extreme Condition, will be coming to PCs. As the game will be made to support the DirectX 10 API, you'll need a Vista-ready machine to run it. This goes against what producer Jun Takeuchi said earlier this year about Lost Planet remaining an Xbox 360 exclusive.
According to a machine translation of Famitsu's article, the game will support a display resolution of up to 2560 x 1600 pixels, and should be ready for a North Am...
