Lost game this year Comments by Robert Purchese

Lets hope there's more bloody answers in the game than there is in the show, getting a bit sick of every answer we get spawning another 3 questions. Oh, and also they really should have licensed Cryengine 2 for this :)

"Juliet is the new Kate."

Not sure about that, but if they can get the Kate / Juliet mud-wrestling-while-chained-together bit into the game, I'm sold.

If its a survival and exploration game it could be good. But I still can't see how it will work =/.

A Lost game could become a new type of Fallout or Bioshock game but that's about as likely as Uwe Boll making a good movie.

(Oh and season 3 have been great even though season 2 was a bit rubbish)

Eko the Dolphin?

I'll meet you in roma

Oh, and also they really should have licensed Cryengine 2 for this :)

Ubisoft already owns the original Cryengine, so I imagine they'll be using that. ;)

Hopefully development of the game isn't like the show: just making it up as they go and hoping for the best.

@Waldo - You get that impression to?

Oddly though Im hopelessly addicted thinking each week will bring answers. As for Lockes father all I can imagine is that it will pan out to be something of interest.
Without giving anything away I believe that some of that story line is starting to tie up.

"Lost: The Game" - coming soon to a bargain bin near you.

Obsequious you spoiling twat. Not that I'm too interested in Lost at the moment cos I don't have Sky but I'll probably see it on dvd within a year. Thanks. Retroactive spoiler alert isn't so funny really. Anyways..

This game could be a cool open ended exploration game, with plot points activated by discovering new areas and unlocked by achieving certain problem solving events. Being able to explore the whole island should be essential, with certain death if you go to an area that is meant to be off limits from polar bears or whatever :p ... who knows if done right it could be cool.

the game without an end?

Kate is the new Juliet Bravo.

Black Cloudy stuff whisks her off to rural england where she takes up the role of outsider boss of country police station.

She looks good dressed as a copper and wins a Bafta.

Polar bear to make cameo(not camel-toe) appearances

Hurley still fat!

Hehehe, did anyone see the PVP Lost RPG strip?

I don't even watch Lost and I found it funny :)

@Obsequious

It's funny because he really does

It turns out they're all ghosts.

Kept saying it needed more ghosts.

let me guess: it's episodic? :D

btw it's been done

There's already a lost game. It's called Far Cry

At least they got a nice team developing it. Makes also sense that it's coming this year and not before, since it's only now that the series has started to unravel it's mysteries.

Does it come complete with annoying flashbacks?

...wait, you mean actual real people watch Lost?

Why is everyone intent on this game being about people stuck on the "island"? HALF of the TV series is portrayed in flashbacks, being half of the game might not even be set there, therefore opening up limitless possibilities for the development team.

I reckon DNF is more Lost than Far Cry, at least that made it to the shops :)

This better use the CryEngine2 there's really no other choice.

Obsequious
Thanks for spoiling it. And btw this isn't sarcasm. I've had enough of the garbage that is lost. I haven't seen anything of the third series except clips, but it gets more ridiculous as it goes on.
No offence to fans(I know plenty)but I just hate it and the characters.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R on an island would be good.

>This better use the CryEngine2 there's really no other choice.

sigh.

'or they're on the other side of the island or something'

Or the other island.

Series 3 is actually quite good compared to series 2. Lots of questions answered. Also, I like the flashback stories ... so na :P

Not sure how the story in the game would work, maybe if they use the other people who crashed but are only seen walking around as extras etc.

It will suck. Big time.

'It will suck. Big time.'

Yes, lets not stray from the point x)

Can anyone think of a single non animated, non movie spin off TV ip that served a decent game?

Who Wants to be a Millionaire!

surprised it took so long.

I doubt the game will involve itself directly in the narrative flow of the TV series. More of an expansion of the story I daresay. Possibilities include...

Lost: Pre-Crash
Set before the beginning of the show. Your character is an earlier resident of the island. Searching for escape you explore the island and uncover its secrets (some already seen and some hinting at things to come). In a postmodern twist your character meets his maker at the end and the secrets he learns die with him.

Lost: Side-Story
Seen the episode Expose yet? If you have then you get the idea, play as another of the often overlooked other crash survivors you weave in and out of the existing story whilst doing your own thing. Again there'll be lots of familiar landmarks combined with new revelations that hint at upcoming events.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say the last idea is the most likely as it allows for the presence of some of the show's acting talent. I'm also wondering about playable flashbacks.
