Aliens Colonial Marines

I hate it that they push it so far when they just off the collector's edition so early. We seen enough of the game already and they have been working on it since 2006, it would be nice if they release it by April.

Lol, it won't be released by April, this is an official announcement of a delay. Fall 2012 is the new release date, unfortunately.

ALIENS is my favorite film of all time, and I've been waiting for this game since 2006. How do you think I feel?!

I was hoping they would plan to release it around April when they had a Spring 2012 release date. I feel like this game is going to end up like Duke Nukem Forever when it comes out, the game ends up getting so much bad word of mouth if the game is utter shit.

Duke Nukem got bad reviews because it wasn't like modern games, it still featured stuff from about 10 years ago.

Aliens came out in the 80's. That's older than 10 years.

Yeah, I'm really annoying. I know that.

I'm talking about in terms of gameplay mechanics, Duke Nukem Forever featured gameplay mechanics that where popular in shooters about a decade or so ago, most reviewers gave it a bad review because it wasn't like modern games and the graphics wheren't as nice as they should be by today's standards.

Really the only thing wrong with DNF is the horrendous loading times, other than that the game isn't that bad.

by **GojiFan** » Thu Jan 26, 2012 7:33 pm

Yep. DNF used the style that goes along the lines of:

Pull out giant and ridiculous weapon.
Make equally ridiculous one-liner.
Aim at durable, ugly alien.
Blow shit up.
Save the hot chick.

There was no concept of cover, regenerating health, etc back in those style of games. Reviewers clearly don't approve of anything that breaks the current mold (even though these same people gave the original DN raving reviews).

I agree, I mention DNF because it was development hell for so long that no one give a shit when it came out and the game got bash apart. Pushing this game back could be a good thing since they might be working on the gameplay but I really hope the new trailer could give us a full release date. As long if they don't release it in September then I'm fine seeing that Halo 4 comes out that month.

Cant wait for it!

Gave me a huge Gears of War vibe from the trailer but it was still cool non the less.

I wonder if the delay was so they could release it on Wii U too?

by **Giga Kaiju** » Fri Jan 27, 2012 10:05 pm

^ I like to think that the game got delayed because of Wii U since it has been delayed to Autumm and the console
probably will be released around that time if not around the holidays.

And the trailer has a GOW feel to it, i played "Mad World" from Gary Jules and it fit.

by **Goji** » Sat Jan 28, 2012 7:41 am

I'm sure the delay has a lot to do with making sure the game is of the highest quality, but could also be because they want to develop and release the Wii U version along with the other versions.

The Q&A with the developers is happening tomorrow on AvPgalaxy, so hopefully we'll find out a plethora of info from that.

I loved the use of music from Moon. Actually pretty excited for this now.

I curse the phallic image of the Queen's head all the time.

I hope they reveal the other new caste appearing in the game.

Gvamp wanted me to post the official box art.

I already saw this on AVPGalaxy and I like the box art a lot. It has a cool style to it.

by **Giga Kaiju** » Fri Feb 10, 2012 7:15 pm

^ Cool boxart. i like that Mysterious feel it has.

New preview of the multiplayer mode. In the video is a very big xenomorph that I presume is a praetorian.

by **Hellspawn28** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 11:59 am

It seems like that the competitive multiplayer was borrows heavily from Valve's Left 4 Dead going by Gamereactor's preview. Great to see some new info again for once.

I feel kinda stupid for never putting the link in my last post. Here it is:
