While Gearbox Software celebrates the release of the critically acclaimed Borderlands 2 this week, GamesBeat sat Gearbox's John Mulkey to talk about the studio’s other big shooter. The long-in-development Aliens: Colonial Marines is set for a February 12 street date next year, and it’s considered the canonical sequel to James Cameron’s Aliens film. Gearbox is also promising to make Alien 3 a better movie. What wizardry do they wield?! Find out inside.
Too many games aren't given a second shot. We at VGU choose which games we would love to see receive a sequel.
