Neither the Radeon HD 4850s or HD 4870 fare greatly in Lost Planet.

Frame-rates are unplayable across the board. CrossFire, SLI or an NVIDIA GTX 2x0 card would be needed to maintain playable, let alone smooth, frame-rates.

Our emulated GeForce 9800 GTX+ actually scored lower than the standard card in this test, likely due to the different drivers used.
