Lost Planet

I trust you’ve already checked out other coverage of our recent MVP Summit at Microsoft. Well, I’ve finally had a chance to catch up a bit with my other work and get around to posting my pictures from the event.

So I flew down on Thursday afternoon with Alicia and Phil. We checked into our hotel, and then swung by MS to check in with the Community team there. They were busy setting up the two rooms we would be using the following day.

After that we had some time so we headed over to the Redmond Town Center. We popped our heads into the EB Games there, and then stuffed our faces (after a noon flight with no lunch) at Claimjumper’s.

Last week I mentioned a little event we were doing up at Microsoft. Well, the event has now come and gone…

We got to hang out with a great bunch of guys and talk all things “Lost Planet.” Thursday night we had a great sort of round-table discussion in the hotel lobby while we waited for the rest of the crew to roll in. Friday morning we headed over to MS to finish setting up (the MS Community team did most of the work) and run through our agenda for the day before the arrival of the MVPs. I took the crew through the single-player mode with the first 4 stages during a Q&A session about the game. Then it was time to take a tour of the Xbox facilities, including the XOC (Xbox Operations Center) before heading to the on-site Microsoft Cafe. After a hearty lunch, we moved into a different room for some multiplayer action.

I’ll have a full report and lots o’ pictures tomorrow. I forgot to bring the cable for my digital camera to work today, so you’ll just have to wait.

In the meantime, check out the coverage done by our guests at the event…

Okay, so it’s been a while since my last post. I’ve been out sick this week. So sue me.

A couple of things…

I’m heading up to Redmond this afternoon for a Lost Planet event we’re doing at Microsoft. I’ll be taking plenty of pictures and have a full report for you guys and gals next week.

Also, check back here soon, as I have some VERY big news to share with you in the coming day(s).

We sent out some playable versions of LP to certain press outlets, and it looks like coverage is starting to surface on Lost Planet.

If you haven’t already, check out the Lost Planet: Extreme Condition Preview on Gamespot, IGN’s Lost Planet Hands-On, and Team Xbox has their own Lost Planet Hands-on Preview. They all played through the first four stages or so, and they all have their own unique take on the game. Some even have new screenshots and videos, so look out for those too.
