As Lost heads into the homestretch of its third season, the show is also venturing into new territory--the realm of games. Last May, Ubisoft announced that it was making a game based on the sci-fi drama and that the game would be released in 2007 on unspecified consoles and handhelds as well as the PC.
"Speaking of Lost, I just lost my train of thought."
The publisher has been as quiet on details as Mr. Ecko was during his vow of silence, but earlier this week a few nuggets of information leaked courtesy of the show's producers, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse.
Speaking on their weekly Lost podcast, the two television execs answered a fan's e-mail regarding the game's platforms. Lindelof confirmed that the game is headed to the Xbox 360, and Cuse stated that it will also be on the PC and PlayStation 3.
The two didn't get into details, saying only that Ubisoft Montreal showed them a "very impressive" demo of the game and that it would be "really cool," though "not as cool as Galaga."
Mobile game developer Gameloft has also taken advantage of the doomed passengers of Flight 815. The company has released Lost The Mobile Game, which features Jack as a playable character and a storyline created by Lost writers.
