III to mine what seemed to be a unique type of resource in the known universe.
Jim is part of that expedition, and while it pains him to have to be separated from his wife and newborn child for over a year in contract, it pays well and he will be able to provide for his family back home by assisting in mining the resource known as thermal energy.
However, Jim's job extends way beyond the sole task of mining, as E.D.N.
III is anything but a friendly planet.
When not mining and tending to repairs, he earns his pay by fighting various Akrid species, an indigenous lifeform that is swarming this barren place.
One day, while diligently performing his duties, Jim stumbles upon an old abandoned NEVEC base, and ultimately finds himself on the brink of death while fighting Akrids, only to be saved by unknown inhabitants of this planet.
Has NEVEC already been there before? What happened to the people of the "real" first expedition? Why was it kept secret? And who saved his life? The questions in Jim's head won't let him rest until he finds the truth behind it all and lead the plot toward the events that transpired in the original game.
While its gameplay is similar to the previous two installments, Lost Planet 3 is more story-driven than mission-themed, which makes it more alike the original game than the sequel.

The game progresses as you complete main quests that move the story forward, but many sidequests are also available to earn various bonuses.
Thermal energy is the main resource, and as such, the cur
About Xbox 360
Microsoft's second console, the Xbox 360 (2005), is remembered for popularizing online multiplayer through Xbox Live and for a notoriously high hardware failure rate (the "Red Ring of Death") — which ironically makes well-preserved, working units and complete game cases more collectible today. Physical 360 games are still generally affordable, though limited Kinect-era peripherals and bundles are becoming harder to find complete.
Gamevaro tracks Lost Planet 3 for Xbox 360 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Lost Planet 3 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This X360 release dates back to 2013.
