Instead, the new Aliens vs. Predator pulls its source material from the early Alien and Predator movies, books and comics. So if you're still holding your breath for a shooter where you can play as a paleontologist who spelunks into an arctic cave or a hopelessly romantic backwoods teen who finds intergalactic trouble while searching for his car keys in a storm drain, this is not the game for you."

+Alien character models look fantastic
+Being chased by their shadows in the air ducts is haunting and unnerving.
Iffy:
-Franchise aside, it could just end up being another derivative corridor shooter

''With Aliens: Colonial Marines being a utter disappointment, a lot of people are looking for something to fill the void. Something to fill that intense atmosphere steeped in tension. People are wanting to feel vulnerable and easily killed. Others wish to play as the ones doing the killing. These are a few alternatives to Aliens: Colonial Marines that will certainly fill the void.''

His smiling face makes me want to punch it. For shipping unfinished, bland, and shallow games he should get the absolute opposite of an award.
