This really is a faithful, yet fun Aliens game. Just what we needed to wash away the horror that was Colonial Marines.

ActualWhiteMan1405d ago

Alien Isolation was a fantastic game. Hope this is just as good.

AnotherGamer1405d ago

I keep reading mixed reviews for this game, is it good or not?

akurtz1405d ago

Play it yourself and find out

frostypants1405d ago

So...no free demo then, I take it? How do you propose we try it?

ElvisHuxley1405d ago

You'd be better off flipping a coin than relying on reviews these days. Better off to just give it a shot yourself, talk to a friend that's played it or use gamefly or something.

Darkborn1405d ago

A multiplat game is also reviewed more honestly than some of these biased reviewers and journalists.

TheHan1405d ago

Omg I forgot all about GameFly 🤦🏻‍♂️

TheSinsibleOne1405d ago

Watch ACG. He's usually pretty accurate with reviews.

KillaJamm1405d ago

I would usually agree but he recently praised The Ascent which I though was terrible, but the reviews were all over the place for that as well. Seems the same for this so I'd say if you love the Alien IP then it's got to be worth a shot, at least it's not a full priced £70 game.

Are you actually reading all of the reviews though? Because they basically all say the same.

The game runs very well and it's a lot of fun to play with friends while being extremely faithful to the franchise.

But it doesn't have a lot of content and the missions are all basically the same. Run from A to point B, hold that position from swarms of enemies while hitting all switches you need to, or by protecting someone. Run from point B to point C, repeat.

For me, I love Aliens and Me and my friends just want an intense game we can play together, and all accounts say this does that, even if the missions are very much the same.

Kurt Russell1405d ago

I have played only a couple of hours, but I have enjoyed the experience so far. In all honesty though, I have Alien bias.

Kratos_Kart20071405d ago

Nothing wrong with Alien bias...

Best action-based game in the Alien universe? Better than Alien Trilogy?

DoomsdayMayBeOkay1405d ago

I don't know man, seeing hundreds of xenomorphs being dropped like flies triggers me. lol

CorndogBurglar1405d ago (Edited 1405d ago )

You gotta remember this game takes place 20 years after Alien 3. Humans are well aware of Xenomorphs and what they are capable of by now. The marines are much more prepared for them this time around than when they basically walked in blind to the unknown in the movie. They had never encountered Xenomorphs in the movie and Ripley was the only surviving human that had ever seen one. The marines didn't even really take Ripley's descriptions seriously.

DoomsdayMayBeOkay1405d ago

I do use my own imagination to fill the gaps in a lot of games as well so fair enough bro, have fun.

akurtz1405d ago

There are different tiers of aliens in the game, the ones being dropped like flies are probably the scout/grunts. There are stronger ones i saw in the gameplay viseos

They put the money up a massive amount and we get this junk!
Sony are trying to pull that money back from what there management has balls up over the past 3 years with GAAS failure! There greed will be there failure.. we mess up it's on you to take the hit our loyal fans!

Hereandthere606d ago

They raise prices on plus, then go on to feed us trash and expect us to smile?

Einhander1972605d ago

At least PS Plus still gives monthly games.

Rhythmattic441d ago

Hey Ronny, its not always perfect, but im loving F1 23

Crows90605d ago

Games with gold is junk yes...but this is about ps plus offerings which are decent this month.

Mafia 2 is a decent game and aliens fire team is a decent game. Not a junk month...you must have PTSD from gwg

blackblades605d ago

Whoever live off ps+ games got issues. Seriously who the hell pay this much attention to these games and call them junk because you don't have the interest to play them. Go out there and buy you a game to enjoy.

Abear21605d ago

Truth, but after raising prices I think some thought Sony would want to foster some good will. Arrogant Sony is officially back!

Crows90605d ago

Yes the games are average...just like Starfield. Lol

monkey602606d ago

Not a great selection. They're okay I guess but I'm not interested

RpgSama606d ago

Not the best month and not the worst month, nothing that interest me though, hopefully the Plus Premium will be better, still need to get to Sea of Stars though.

monkey602605d ago

I've been too busy to catch up myself. Going to get through Spiderman 2 and then I want to play Disco Elysium

crazyCoconuts605d ago

I'm thinking it might be the worst month for PS since PS5 came out...
Still way better than any gold month has been of course.

S2Killinit605d ago (Edited 605d ago )

This from the article about the Sony Pictures Benefits for Plus members:

Starting on November 1 all PlayStation Plus members will receive a 15% discount on all content available for purchase and rental in Sony Pictures Core during the month of November.

Lastly, we hope you caught the premiere of the new mind-bending interactive streaming series Silent Hill: Ascension which made its debut yesterday. In addition to the interactive series, a weekly compilation of audience-influenced storylines will be packaged into TV episodes, and PlayStation Plus Premium/Deluxe members will have exclusive access to all weekly compilation episodes 24-hours before they debut on other platforms.

What is this all about?

Abnor_Mal606d ago

I heard Aliens Fire Team was good before, so I’ll give that a try. The rest I’m not interested in, but will still add to my library.

thesoftware730606d ago

Aliens is really fun, and even better with friends.

VersusDMC606d ago

Had fun playing Aliens single player. Will add to the library to replay at some point.

Becuzisaid606d ago

Was curious about Aliens, and I have the first and third Mafia games already, so this at least completes the trilogy for me.
