This is one licensed game I have to buy. 

"Ubisoft is thrilled to be collaborating with ABC to develop this phenomenal television series into an interactive experience," said Helene Juguet, senior director of marketing for Ubisoft. "Ubisoft has worked closely with ABC Studios and the show's producers to create a compelling storyline that has the same mystery, adventure and intensity fans of the show have come to expect from the 'Lost' brand."

"We're very excited to be working with Ubisoft to develop a game that captures the same surprise and intrigue as 'Lost,'" said Bruce Gersh, senior vice president, business development, ABC Entertainment and ABC Studios. "The series has such a loyal audience, and we're happy to bring fans an additional way to interact and engage with their favorite characters."

"The sense of adventure and suspense that we strive for in the show is also captured in the Lost video game," said Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, executive producers of the 'Lost' television series. "Ubisoft has done a fantastic job and come up with a game that is visually amazing and imaginative both on its own and as an extension of the world of the show."

I love the show but don't think I could buy a videogame based on it.



To cash in my CC rewards points for $300 in Circuit City gift cards to purchase a 360 or not: That is the question.

Lost: The Video Game - Now you can play our game for 400 hours and still ask "WTF is going on!!!!????" just like the TV show!

Lets hope Ubisoft doesn't screw it up. More importantly, they better not do a half-assed job with Heroes.

I dont watch Lost or Heroes...I only watched the first few episodes of each...and I havent really had time to get into them...

Heroes sounds kinda boring to be honest...and Lost is apparently getting worse every season according to fans...

And a videogame based on it? No thanks hehe.



LEFT4DEAD411.COM
Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

YAY, finaly a good Lost game, compared to the one on the iPod this will rule, can't wait. And its for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC, can't they make a Wii verson.

I don't know, the idea of a Lost game is intriguing but I don't think it could work until the series ended. The game can't reveal any big secrets unless they're the secrets up until season 3 (or 4 if the game is released after season 4 is finished) and a game like that would just leave far too many questions. They really should have left this game until the series ended. They could make their own story, but that would only aggravate the fans, otherwise known as the only people that would buy this game (myself included).



Hey guys i work at Ubisoft. Here's the walkthrough for the first level:

"Theres a burning plane in front of you. Walk around dazed for a few hours and then lay down. Watch out because a Polar Bear might show up (in which case you need to run). Press the Action Button (X) to say a catchphrase, like "What the HECK was that??" to continue the storyline. Jack will explain to you that they need a shelter.

Now you have to go find sticks to build a house. Look for some bamboo and press the Bamboo Button (A) to start hacking away at the bamboo with a fire axe. Each piece takes about 4 chops before you can take it. When you have about 150 pieces, go back to the beach.

WARNING: If you see your father's ghost, do NOT walk up to him! He will just disappear and you will faint. Try walking around him, keeping your distance. If you see your mother's ghost though, you can walk through her. Go all the way back to the beach.

Now hold the Bamboo Button (A) to build your bamboo hut at the beach. Now watch a cut-scene of a floating smoke weird thing and try not to get killed by it. If you get killed, just start the game over."

 Ok I officially want this game now!
