I'm worried about this game, I don't think it's going to be good..

Concept is awesome, Graphics were ok, just ok and having the same studio that made brothers in arms make this game... that's what worries me..

I just don't think those guys know how to make a really good game..

they also did borderlands...so have some faith...

CYBERHATER4119d ago

It's hard to have faith these days.

Acidicpack4119d ago

Then I suggest crawling out of your cave and playing Borderlands 1 and 2 also made by Gearbox. Go back under your bridge troll.

@ lonesoul65

I didn't know they did borderlands... I played the first one and I heard the second one was really good...

so maybe, maybe this could be good, I hope so - I would love to get this one, I just have to wait on the reviews... lot of really good games coming out early.

thanks for the feedback lonesoul65 i didn't know they did borderlands.. So this could turn out to be really good.

if you enjoyed the first BL the second you will have a great time with. I would suggest you pick it up. I do agree that it is really hard to do a horror game in the first place much less something so familiar and well known as aliens. It is going to be hard to create that kind of atmosphere and animate the aliens so they are believable.
As technically far as we are...were not as far as we need to be to bring some things to life.

Hellshighway certainly wasn't as good as Road to Hill 30 or Earned in Blood, but it definitely wasn't awful. That and squad based World War 2 isn't something that pops up often.

I dunno, seems crazy to put down a game based on one you didn't like that came out 4 years ago.

@ Ravenor

Not really putting it down, I was just saying I was a little worried they would be able to pull it off the right way... Aliens was a pretty awesome movie

but that being said, I really don't know, maybe they nailed it.. we'll see..

Lol I took the week of from work so I could just sit down and play this game

Acidicpack4119d ago

It's going to be epic! Make sure your stocked up with pizza, beer and junk food. It's very important for playing hours of crap my pants intense games as the body will need to refeuled lol.

MizTv4118d ago

And don't forget......WEED!!!! Haha

How do you eat pizza and junk food while playing video games and not have a ontroller that looks like the inside of a garbage can?

Garethvk4118d ago

I have played it a couple of times at conventions. Mind you, multiplayer only but it was lots of fun. Think of a L4D in Aliens with amazing detail to the film. I do worry single play may have a simple enemy A.I. and simply charge the player directly but they have put a ton of effort into it and FOX has given them so much access to blueprints, art, and the source material to make it shine.

BladerunnerZX4118d ago

I have faith that Gearbox will deliver the best and most faithful Aliens game ever made.

The development team are big Aliens fans and were given every resource possible to make what is Aliens 3.

The game looks good so far. great wallpaper btw.

Roundtable: Games That Should Have Received a Sequel

Too many games aren't given a second shot. We at VGU choose which games we would love to see receive a sequel.

The Saboteur - criminally underrated and a fantastic mechanic of bringing colour back to Nazi-occupied Paris.

The article lists Bulletstorm, Sleeping Dogs, and Aliens: Colonial Marines.

Can't argue with any of those really, but I would add Resident Evil Operation Racoon City and Metal Gear Survive to that list. Both terrible games from good franchises.

Bulletstorm, I actually liked the gameplay but the atrocious writing and characters made me despise the game by the end of it.
