More evidence points to Lost Planet 2 hitting the PS3

And while a definitive answer is still not available, Capcom has dropped yet another hint that Lost Planet 2 will indeed be headed to the PS3 eventually.  The Japanese publisher recently published their E3 2009 line up via their community blog.  Lost Planet 2 will be there, however, they specified that it was "currently" only for 360 and PC.  The use of the word "currently" would seem to indicate that it will be coming to another platform eventually. 

And it's pretty safe to assume, that platform WON'T be the Wii.

-------------------------

Now it's for the PC aswell?

It was 360 only a week or so ago.

 

it was announced for pc and 360 to start.

 

on topic; i always expected it to go multiplatform

Can I get a link for that?

A trailer was released on Xbox Live back in february, at which point most sites seemed to be reporting it as 360 only.

"While demonstrating Lost Planet 2 to the gathered writers last week, Takeuchi pointed out it was playing on PC, not Xbox 360. When asked about whether we could expect a PC version of the game he was a little coy.

"It is running off a PC now, so there may be something we can announce fairly shortly," he said.

Source.

As far as I know it wasn't announced on the PC until very recently.

 

 

 

 

i guess you are right. but i could have sworn that they announced it for both.

but why do people always ask for links from the people with dial-up

Capcom is stupid if they dont release it on ps3 aswell, it wont probably sell much as on 360 but i think it will atleast do a million.

 

 

why do you say that? if you look at the sales of the first one on the 360 compared to that of the ps3 you will see.

lost planet    

xbox 360;1.76 million

ps3;.42 million

and that is without colonies editions sales

Didn't you post a thread saying that "PS3 doesn't need Lost planet 2" a month ago?

Why the sudden flip-flop?

Yea but the PS3 version was released much later than the 360 version.  I think Lost Planet 2 has a good chance of showing up on PS3.  360 sales will do much better, but any time you can have at minimum of half million of sales, a developer is going to take it.

The install base is much bigger and ps3 have already proved for Capcom that it can sell much software.

Well the PS3 version of Lost Planet was a late port.

Take a look at Rainbow Six Vegas.

The first one was a late port for the PS3, it arrived 7 months after the 360 version.

Sales.

360: 1.94 million

PS3: 0.48 million

Then Rainbow Six Vegas 2 which launched on both consoles at the same time.

360: 1.98 million

PS3: 1.10 million

Notice how the 360 version sold roughly the same, while the PS3 version more then doubled in sales.

ohh, i misread your original post.

 my bad.

 buti think your right it could easily do a million on the ps3 as long as they launch it at the same time. because timed exclusives never sell anywhere as nice as the original.
