During GamesCom 2012 Capcom treated Lost Planet 3 fans to some gameplay footage and more details about the third instalment set on an icy world.

A hookshot style weapon debuts too which grants players access to new areas, as well as outright kills foes when driving. Capcom showed some cave action against buzzing fire-wasps.

Some convenient cover hotspots were strewn throughout the cave and QTE played a role if one of the buzzing pests managed to grab you. Capcom also teased the wider story.

Lost Planet 3 releases on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC in 2013. It will be on the Gamescom floor this week.

The animation looks great, but I wonder what the game is going to be like. LP 2 was a disaster so I'll wait for a review before buying LP 3.

Not quite my thing, it looks decent though. I doubt i'll ever get this outside of a very decent sale if ever since there's not enough time to play that many games as there are out there.

LP 1 was good,nothing special but it kep my interest,LP 2 was horrendous,the only way you should ever play that is with friends but only on the consoles,the PC port had the worst controlls i`ve ever seen.

So yeah i`ll wait for reviews to see if i buy it but will only do so if it`s on sale,also where`s the gameplay? This is all cgi.

"LP" was interesting....to watch on YouTube. "LP2" a disgrace is hardly a good selling platform for pre-ordering this unknown quantity. Trailers are good and all, but as we should have learnt by now they do not reflect the actual final product.

I played Lost Planet one for a short while, and I haven't really seen two in action. Based on this trailer, this can be great, but I also know of the deception of trailers.
