The rabbit hole goes deeper. In the latest bit of Aliens: Colonial Marines drama, an anonymous tester on the game has taken to Reddit to answer any and all questions pertaining to the game. And boy, is it a doozy. The tester’s account has since been deleted, along with all the answers to the great questions being asked. But that hasn’t stopped the internet machine to get some great quotes from the AMA.
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.
Man, this game is one of the biggest gaming debacles in recent memory. So many conspiracy theories and controversies. I wonder what kind of effect it will have on Gearbox and Sega.
I dont see this 'saga' ending any time soon.
Aww. They added more horrid things just for the WiiU :)
Enjoy,

I REALLY wanted this game to be good!!! :(
Well. Goddamn it. I mean I hope that isn't true, but damn it. Bad mini-games? Really? No extra effort in the AI, not closer to the demo, I mean what the hell? I mean, I still want to try the game, but why would the Wii U version's only difference be something like THAT?
