Lost Planet/YMMV

Demonic Spiders: The turrets from Episode 3-3. Without the right weapons, expect to waste ammo and time attempting to destroy them while you get blown off the train.
- Enemy snipers and Revolver-wielding enemies are no exceptions. They're the only non-Akrid enemies that can kill you in one hit (if they put one in your skull), and if you're busy with something else, they won't hesitate to auto-aim for your head, even when you're in the air. Ditto the multiplayer simulator A Is, as they aim for your head by default.
Fan Nickname: Gordiant, the first episode's final boss, was referred as Sir Om Nom Nom, among other names.
Goddamn Bats: The smaller Akrid on the higher difficulties.
Holy Shit Quotient: Try to count the number of times during this final trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyT9sM5xkQw
Nightmare Fuel: Some of the Akrid qualify.
Scrappy Level: Episode 3-3 ends with an amazing boss fight, but making it to the boss can be a test of patience.
That One Boss: It's easier to find one that isn't, even among some of the mini-bosses. However, it's not coming from completely out of left field, since Capcom helped invent Nintendo Hard.
That One Level: Chapter 3-2. Filled to the brim with snipers armed with a powerful rifle, a VS with a BFG rifle, and troops with the same BFG rifle.
That One Sidequest: Getting all the trophies/achievements in this game.
- Getting the "NUMBER 1" or "TOP TEN" Noms de Guerre.
