WC: This game has been in development longer than a very long thing that has been lengthened to make it longer. If you thought that was hard to read you should try reading Sega’s multiple announcements that the project had been cancelled or further delayed yet again. Just harrowing! Thankfully though, the twelve year wait for gamers to finally visit LV426 and take on one of cinema’s most famous beasts is nearly over. There is just one nagging thought though…most movie licensed games are appalling. Will this creature be sleek, expertly designed and dangerously infectious like the original hunter from the movies? Or will it be big, clumsy and stupid like that God-awful hybrid at the end of Alien: Resurrection?
Stay frosty, people!
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.
Can't wait! Be the first game I've played since a near a year ago.
avp2 was awesome, last alien game i have played, cant wait to play this.
