I'm excited. The inclusion of co-op pretty much pushes it to "must-buy" simply so I can have the following conversation.

"Man this is a big freaking signal!"
"That can't be that's inside the room!"
"It's reading right man!"
"Well you're not reading it right!"
(yes I know that's not the full quotation. As my office mates know as I recited it for them from memory the other day...)


I am not the least bit ashamed at my similar ability to quote most of the movie from memory. It's one of those movies they should make kids watch in school as part of a proper education.

@ Para-medic: If it doesn't I'll be writing an angry letter lol.

Am I alone in finding Ripley the worst part of Aliens and very glad she isn't anywhere near the game?


I'll admit my initial response was to say

"Get away from here you ****"  =]

:whistle:

Any mention of mapping or modding tools? Some custom co-op missions and campaigns down the line would be good.

I have loved all the screen shots so far, I think its especially awesome they included the Human skull to be faintly visible under the carapace (of I think they are calling it the lurker) like the one from the first film.

I remember reading that they met with Scott when he was working on Prometheus, & there might be some element from that film in the game too. I hope they don't harm Alien 3, film had horrifying back story & it gets allot of hate. But that assembly cut is one of my favorite films of all time, & the docu for it was pretty awesome too.

Also. Its kindof out there, but I'm hoping they'll reveal why the company wants the xeno's. That had been one of wishes for Prometheus & I didn't feal satisfied there. Always thought it would be hilarious if the company had a very good reason, like a very very good reason to need the xeno all along. 
Another thing, what happened between Alien & Aliens that the company seemingly forgot about LV426. That might be nice to explore.

No, Gearbox haven't said anything about that yet.

I´d consider the Dark Horse sequel canon if they hadn´t butchered Ripley´s character when they finally got Weaver´s permission to use her face (or something along that line), and some other issues. But late-teens Newt and Hicks in the second series were great.

I also heard Weyland-Yutani soldiers will be enemies too. Would actually make for an interesting multiplayer match where the two opposing teams try to complete their objectives while xenos run around and attack both groups.

I don't think that would be right, because the Weyland-Yutani Corporation controls, (or at least has very strong ties to) the USCM. Unless the marines eventually go rogue for whatever reason.

Nah, I'm sure they won't go rogue. After all, the marines go there because of the distress call so the two groups have no idea about each other being there until they meet. I was actually more interested in how the hell Hadley's Hope survived the blast. Oh well, hopefully Gearbox manages to make it right.

And here's a pic

A lot of good points in the video and if you go over Colonial Marines again after this video you can see how Alien 3 is an important film in the series.

And I did enjoy Alien 3 long before this video made (years and years before) any movie following the second film had a tough hill to climb but they created a very unique film that by itself is enjoyable with some great segments like the Alien corridor hunt at the end, great camera work and sense of being closed in and hunted.

It´s a horror movie that doesn´t scare at any moment, whose director wasn´t allowed to edit it (and almost quit directing because of it), undid the previous two films, tried to go back to the roots and failed miserably (and when the roots are that close to perfection, it´s always going to be bad trying to do the same), had lots of plot holes, and couldn´t tell most characters apart from each other. Yeah, atmosphere was great and so was music, but that´s about it. Even the best scene was cut from the film, the first trap to the alien was quite different and much better in origin.

At least with Prometheus and the first AvP I was laughing most of the time.

Hope this time he has Aliens personality and not the arrogant one from A3 (the actual one when briefly reactivated). And wasn´t Mead also who designed Blade Runner?

I love the design of the UD-4L Cheyenne dropship. I really hope they do more in game than just crash on occasion. Which seems to be the fate of most sci-fi dropships.

yep, as well as Tron and Neill Blomkamp's new movie Elysium, I also think some of his work was the inspiration for the Presidium.

Hopefully the MP will be more like Primal Carnage in terms of selection where you can immediately choose any class you want to play as instead of building up points in order to unlock or "evolve" like in Natural Selection 2.

So far it looks like they made the aliens less durable. Guess it will be difficult to find a server that won't have marines on "full". Seen that sort of thing on NS2. But hey, the xenomorpohs will be playable from third person so perhaps it'll be easier to handle.

So apparently this game is a disaster/letdown/fail. Meh.

Well I'm damn glad now that I didn't preorder it, and decided to wait for reviews.
Turns out I'll skip this one.
