So, apparenlty there’s a gorgeous Lost Planet spin-off series called E.X. Troopers, which is a game GEARED for gamers like us. Monster fighting, giant robots and bursting at the seams with anime style that looks like the perfect marriage between a GAINAX production and Phantasy Star Online, versus its kinda ugly gritty (wants to look like Gears of War western shooter) counter-part… this is the one fans like us would want! Siliconera.Com recently did an interview with Capcom to see if we could get hooked up over here in the west.

Capcom basically says, maybe.

“Whether it’s E.X. Troopers or any other Japan-only games we do or even games we are considering doing, the best thing we can get is input,” Szymanski replied. “I don’t need an online petition. I just need people to go on the community sites, e-mail some of our community guys, and say these are the kinds of games we want to see.”

The game is due out later this year. If it ever reaches our western shores… well, that’s up to you.
