Looks alright. Aliens hasn't exactly been an award winning game franchise. I'd honestly like to see them do something else with the franchise besides constantly repackaging the plot of the 2nd movie.

I love aliens, and ive been waiting for this game for quite a while now. And yes, alien games have never really been that good, although when i was a kid i thought alien versus predator on the arcade was an absolute blast. I have hopes for this game, the engine theyre using has some really nice lighting effects from what ive seen so far, and with Aliens you really need that mix of light and shadow.

What else can you do with Aliens?

Theyre like zombies on steroids. Reptilian insectoid zombies, and they like brains too. I wouldnt mind seeing something different either, but you gotta admit they are typecast.


All I know is its gonna be fun.

I managed to like the recent AVP game beside its shortcomings but my favorite part of the was near the beginning of the Alien's mission, when you're in some kind of club and there's loud music and flickering lights and the Aliens come out of nowhere. I though it was fantastic. So when I was heard that a game based specifically on thet Aliens was coming, I was excited. Still can't wait to play it.
