Aliens: Colonial Marines... back on track!
So glad to read this:
http://kotaku.com/5482437/now-its-al...-time-to-shine
I couldn't care less about AvP. I want this game.
4 player Co-Op strategic/shooter based gameplay. You actually have to try to keep your squad alive by more than just run and gun.
I remember reading a scenario where your team will be in a room with a few moments to get it ready. You can weld the doors shut, move some stuff around, etc, and try to defend against the alien onslaught coming.
That would be sick. 3 members trying to weld doors shut quickly, and someone trying to get some vents all the while having to get ready to defend since that'll only hold them for so long.
Going... to... be... sick.

Now this is the kind of gameplay I can dig. I love **** like that, defending yourself and whatnot. Especially the way you can weld doors shut, move whatever you want around, etc. Looks gnar.

Oh dear god. I remember when this was announced AGES ago.
Good to see they're actually following through with this. The concept behind it was epic as hell.

Yeah,
I'm just glad it wasn't cancelled. I can understand Borderlands sort of taking over as that was a pretty high profile project. I'm just glad they didn't lose the contract, or get the plug pulled.
I remember when I read in either GI or EGM that it was shelved "indefinitely" and I was bummed.

Playing it Bogart

Yes, I realize I am bumping a 3 yearold thread.
Just a warning to those who have not bought the game yet. Dont bother!
It is terrible. Graphics are sub par, gameplay is awful, AI is atrocious, and the voice acting is the worst I have heard in ages.

i like it.. apparently its better on PC then consoles. The console versions are hella buggy. PC seems to run smooth except for lag going through doorways in campaign (this may just be my computer bc 3 of my 4 sticks or RAM failed on me) Graphics I think are pretty well done, alot better then majority of games out there. Lighting and sounds are great. The mutliplayer needs some work and some balancing. Also wish it was dedicated bc my connection blows its like trying to play COD.. a 280 ping vs 60 doesnt work for me. especially playing as a xeno XD
The co-op is really fun, but the campaigns short. Id imagine this is so they can make money off DLC. I can only see the game getting better as more patches come out.

You must have atrociously low standards for games
Game is **** on a stick. Won't hold most people's attention past an hour. There's just really no point in buying the game at all. Such a let down.

No, I just didnt have High expectations for this game considering how long it took. I learned my lesson with duke nukem forever... any game taking 5+ years is going to suck
Its still fun and bc im a aliens fan Its good enough for me.

I loved how the demo footage looked better than the final work.
As soon as I kept seeing it was held back I knew it was going to be ****.

I was WAY more excited for this game than I ever should have been, and this game took that excitement and raped it's best friend while making it watch.

Too bad it got asspowned by most mainstream reviewers. I'll scoop it when its around 9.99 used. /meh Good concept but sega just seems to have lost their touch these days.

It certainly wasn't SEGA's fault if "insider information" is to be believed.

Showed such early promise. I was beyond psyched.
Glad I was game swamped, and ended up behind so I didn't pre-purchase.
