It really sounds like Capcom is stepping up their game for the Lost Planet sequel. As he walks down what must be a throat you can see organs pulsating in the distance, beyond rows of bones, perhaps a rib cage. Inside this giant frog the player is surrounded by fluids and flesh. Then he jumps in its mouth and appears inside the creature. The developer climbs down the creatures back, moving around its giant feet to position himself in front of the creature.
Sounds like that could be cool, but then there's the whole "inside" thing. The size of the creature, the simultaneous attacks happening from the ground, the constantly swaying field of grass, all combine to deliver a cinematic, epic moment in the game. As the ground attack continues, the player starts hacking at the spikes on the creature's back. Three of the players work on the creature from all sides while the fourth player, the one whose camera we are watching, works his way up the back of the creature. This provides some interesting possibilities to the game's four player co-op mode. It's a bit like Shadow of the Colossus on the PS2, but slightly more brutal and with friends. Kotaku is bringing on the detail that big monsters play a huge role in the game as players not only work together with their teammates to bring it down from the outside, but the inside too. The current Xbox 360 exclusive features a four player co-op mode that numerous members of the media got to check out last week at Capcom's Captivate event.
Details are beginning to trickle out today about Lost Planet 2 from Capcom.
