Anyone gonna get Lost Planet 2?

I really want to get a new PS3 game since summer break is imminent. My friends suggested Lost Planet 2 and from the previews it looked really promising. However the reviews online so far is making me change my mind. Any thoughts? What other games would you guys suggest?
 
I thought the first Lost Planet was ok at best. There were some interesting mechanics but the game was largely forgettable for me. LP2 looks to be more of the same in that regard. It looks interesting but nothing is jumping out and saying "Play me!". *shrug*

What kind of games do you like in general?
 
I liked the first game but the sequel is really a 4 player game. From what I read the single player portion of the game has you play with 3 AI's and that there really isn't any story nor does your character have any name/story behind it. I suppose you can just use those Gears guys, Frank West or Albert Wesker instead of that military dude you play as.. I think it all boils down to whether you liked the demo and if you have 3 friends you can play the whole game with. I'm skipping it myself since I rarely play multiplayer.

I was torn between getting this and Red Dead Redemption. I tried both the single player and multiplayer demos of LP2 and liked neither (really bad controls, gimmicky feeling gameplay, good graphics though).

IGN ripped on it (6/10, very bad for a AAA title). Try the demo, it might help you decide if it's for you.

As mentioned above though, what sort of games do you like?
 
yah I agree with you guys. I guess i'll give the demo a try when I get the chance to. I've only been playing FPS for the longest time. I might get a hold of Uncharted 2 from my friend and beat that.

I was really looking for some good multiplayer/coop games. I'm not a big sports game guy so that eliminates a lot I know.
 
I was gonna get it but I don't know. It seems very polarizing. I'm thinking of getting Red Dead instead but then...if that is anything like GTA, I'll get bored with it very fast.
