In the most recent trailer for Lost Planet 2 about half way through the video Marcus and Doom show up and decimate a big alien, which is followed by the logo for Gears of War and Lost Planet combined. Just like everyone else I was confused but quickly found Cliff bleszinski’s explanation that he told to Kotaku.

They [Capcom] contacted us about the cameo and we said ‘heck yeah, We’re mutual fans of each other’s work and crossovers are darned cool so we sent over the Marcus and Dom models for implementation.

Does this mean Lost Planet will adopt the Gears of War controller configuration?

I can’t speak about the controls for LP2, Anything else about how it’s accessed or used in game remains to be revealed. I’ll leave that to Capcom’s capable hands.
