Lost Planet's Map Pack #3 to be free

Continuing the conversion from paid map packs to free ones Capcom has announced that Lost Planet's Map Pack #3 will become a free download starting Thursday, August 16th. We're pretty sure Map Pack #3 becoming free content is due to the fact that its PC counterpart will be offering the maps for free, just like what was done with Map Packs #1 and #2. So, you ask, what maps are included? Well, Map Pack #3 features three maps; the jungle inspired Ruins, the frigid Ice Drop and our favorite pixelated wonder Lost Technology. So, if you've been in the market for some Lost Planet DLC lately and were thinking about picking up Map Pack #3, just hold off until next Thursday when everyone will be treated to some free map fun.

[Thanks, DjDATZ]

Does anyone still play LP? It would be a shame for it to have already died off. It was a beauty to play online.

A ton of people play it! I havent even noticed a drop off. Almost every day I meet some one new online that just picked up the game and 80% love it. I dont understand why this game had a hard time to start with. Its a game that takes a lot of talent to master. And the payoff is tremendous. Best of all no matter how good you think you are there is always some one out there to teach you some thing new on this game.

I'm very interesting in finally picking this game up now that's dropped and price AND has free map packs, but the online play is the main reason I would have to buy this over renting it.

Someone convince me!
