Hands-On With Lost Planet and Assassin's Creed

Lost Planet is coming to the 360 soonish, and is a 3rd person shooter about being cold and shooting bugs. From the GameDaily Lost Planet hands-on: "Our second time through the level we used a bit more strategy by taking down the first set of pirates with our rifle, sniping them from a distance. Before the mech was alerted to our presence we sniped the pirate in the cockpit and hopped in ourselves. From there we used the dual machine guns in the mech to take down the tower guards and moved on from there." There's a demo up on Live Arcade if you're interested. And you should be, because it's very good. Assassin's Creed, meanwhile, is slated for the PS3 and has whispers of 'Best of Show' following it around. From the Next Generation Assassin's Creed hands-on: "Eliminating targets is completely up to the user. Where, when and how you take out your enemies left completely open. You can stalk your prey, scale buildings to get a better view of their actions, mount horses and follow them or just blend into the crowds and keep an eye on them from afar."
