It didn’t take long for other retailers to follow, including EB Games who posted about it on their Facebook Page. Of course, as is usually the case with these unexpected launches, not every store were prepared and many had no idea the game was available."
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.
Player 2 takes some quiet time to look back at some of the most hyped failures of the past 10 years.
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.
Thanks to a bustling mod community on Steam, Gearbox's Aliens: Colonial Marines actually has a stellar multiplayer experience to offer these days.
New Zealand isn't breaking the street date :(
How come you Aussies can do that lol!?
i haven't seen a lot of ads for this, i have high hopes but someone who got the game accidentally early from store said it was pretty average
here is hoping that person was wrong
It still won't help this_____________!

I have a feeling this one will end up as just a mediocre as the last sadly. About as far back as I remember playing a good Aliens game was at the Arcade.
