Lost: The Video Game (Xbox 360)

The computer game tie-in is normally the most cynical exercise in money making this side of the housing market. Every major film release is surrounded by marketing and products, including the inevitable computer game. Over the years these games have got the reputation of being absolutely shocking and for the most part the critics are right. However, in the case of 'Lost' surely this will not be true? 'Lost' is amongst the most intelligent and exciting TV shows around so the game will reflect this? It appears that the makers of the game and the makers of the show may not actually talk to one another. Gameplay You play as a survivor of the plane ...  Read the complete review

If your a Lost fan, then this might be the game for you. However, if your a real gamer then this is a must to avoid. Having to play for my sister since it was her game & she can't play, I was bored out of my mind. Although I do agree the storyline is pretty good if you follow the Lost series. I liked the idea of playing a new character overall even to the series itself. A nice touch of this game is that they made a complete ne plot to the story which doesnt affect the storyline of the series for those who havent played the game, but adds a little touch to those who have played this game. the puzzles are quite annoying in this game. such as piecing together the jigsaw ...  Read the complete review

As a fan of the ABC TV series of Lost I was intrigued to find that a video game had been made to collaborate with the series. The Game is similar to the ABC TV series and this game is set within season one of the TV series. The game is about a plane crash, Oceanic flight 815, which gets into trouble and crashes over a deserted Island. You play a character that is not in the TV Series: a male Photo journalist who has lost his memory and your initial task is to find out whom you are and if anyone in the flight has an idea of who you are. Your character has many flash backs and you have to try and piece the puzzles together in order to help get your ...  Read the complete review

Being a huge lost fan I decided I had to buy this game. So I did. You play as Elliot Maslow a photojournalist and a survivor of Oceanic Flight 815 who suffers from amnesia. Your goal in this game is to find items and solve puzzles to trigger your memory. The graphics are pretty impressive, with all main characters looking very, very similar. At the start of the game freedom to explore the island is restricted to paths, but as you progress you get much more freedom. The challenges are reasonably challenging, but nothing too hard. The overall story of your characters past is quite interesting and just ...  Read the complete review
