Aliens: Colonial Marines

Wow, this game is getting absolutely shitroasted on every review site that I see

All reviewers are panning it for being a buggy and half finished mess (which is funny since it has been in dev for such a long time)

I was so looking forward to this as well.

Fuck

I'm sad that I won't be putting an awesome Power Loader figure on my shelf. Dazed keeps badgering me about getting a 3DS XL and Fire Emblem so I might do that instead when XLs go on sale again.

4.0 from GI:http://www.gameinformer.com/games/al...es-review.aspx

5.9 from GT:http://www.gametrailers.com/reviews/...marines-review

So yeah, looks like I'll be cancelling my order.

Really, it's just getting shit all over everywhere. I can't believe one site actually gave it a 9.0, everywhere else it's completely tanking.

At least we know who was paid for their review.

Seeing that it was Published by Sega it was probably all that they could afford.

Looks like DNF all over again. Gearbox should stop taking on projects that were in development hell and stick with their own IPs.

I just watched a stream of this last night. The entire campaign was 6 hours. The Ai is stupid, the story is stupider, and there are huge unexplained retcons to the movies. The aliens cannot even climb walls and ceilings in multiplayer, something AVP2 did very well over a decade ago. In short stay away stay far away.

heres the Vid of his stream if anyone is interested in skimming it.

Shit. Was looking forward to this.

lol what a shitpile, how do you fuck it up this badly?

Amazing how this game went from 'day 1' to 'not even going to pirate' for me

Are we never going to get a good Alien game/film ever again?

First Prometheus and now this..

It's fucking crushing being a Alien fanboi

Damn, i was really hoping this was going to turn out good. I remember being hyped for it like 6 years ago when it first showed up.

Oh hey, just wanted to remind everyone who negged me what I had to say about this back on the old boards... ya know.. how it looked like it was gonna turn out.

Pissed.

I bow to your clairvoyant skills sir. From this day forward, you are Nirgonstradamus, seer of shitty video games. May it rain +Nets on you for all your days.

Still pissed

Amateur hour

Playing it now. Yep, it sucks. :\
