F.y.i, this game still exists according to SEGA, as well.

Alan Pritchard had an interview in Game Informer last month and he said "Colonial Marines is still on [but] it won't be November 11th [their original launch date"

Is it just me or am I the only one that thinks SEGA just half ass makes games?

Those screen shots don't get me excited for SEGA Aliens Colonial Marines. SEGA needs to pump up the volume.

kramun4860d ago

Can't really get excited about that screenshot, but I have high hopes for this game. Hopefully this will an Aliens game worth getting, because AVP (the recent one) was terrible.

MadMax4860d ago

I really enjoyed the latest AVP. I thought it was very underrated actually. I have seriously had more fun playing AVP online, than i have with any of the Modern Warfare COD games!

ThanatosDMC4860d ago (Edited 4860d ago )

Not as great as AVP2. AVP3 is fun with friends in a private match though doing the Predator Hunt. They should have added the Alien and Predator classes instead of a reskin. I wanted to play a Pretorian which walks on it's two legs, high armor, and high damage. Runners for their high risk, but smaller bodies are awesome. Wish they let us evolve into Queens. Heavy Preds with their combi sticks, Light preds with their net guns, etc. They also shouldnt have change the leap ability of the Aliens from AVP2 compared to the lame leap attack in AVP3.

More than 6 players on the console version tends to lag the game.

Love the single player though. Always played on the hardest mode first.

I wish the co-op survival mode had more maps. Instead of selling them as DLCs. I bought them... but damn, i hate what they're doing with these DLC bullcrap.

What are you waiting for? Breakfast in bed?

Bolts4860d ago

It's a rescue mission, you'll love it. There's some juicy colonists' daughters we have to rescue from their virginity. Heh!

Apone4860d ago

Another glorious day in the Corps! A day in the Marine Corps is like a day on the farm. Every meal's a banquet! Every paycheck a fortune! Every formation a parade! I LOVE the Corps!

Rhezin4860d ago

I hope you get to see Bill Paxton eaten alive, and i hope you play as Michael Biehn, that dude is just a badass. There needs to be more movies with him in it. BTW nice quotations people.

I’m glad Embracer is selling them. I hope someone other than MS buys them and frees them up to make great games.

Knightofelemia24d ago

Says right in the article Take Two bought Gearbox off of Embracer.

Sgt_Slaughter24d ago

Reading the article is hard for most people it seems

@Sgt Slaughter

I just like how when a studio automatically goes up for sale. People automatically think Microsoft is just going to jump on it like a fat kit eating a cake.

I mean, having multiple CEOs is a redundancy, soooo... Good luck Randy!!!

Layoffs Hit Gearbox Staff Hours After Embracer Sale

Less than a day after the news that Take-Two Interactive would acquire Borderlands developer Gearbox Entertainment from the embattled Embracer Group, layoffs have already begun. In the hours since former Gearbox employees were made redundant, they've taken to Twitter, and while the total number of staff impacted remains hard to determine, it sounds significant.

I am glad to see Gearbox under Take Two. But lay offs I am not surprised they aren't the only company cutting staff and they won't be the last. And I have a feeling the Borderlands movie honestly will tank when it comes out. The cast is just wow a complete mess Lilith is too old Roland is to small and scrawny. They are missing Brick and Mordecai and I don't think Tiny Tina will be as bat shit nuts as she is in the games.

The movie will definitely flop. It has all the usual actors that have casted in all these video game movie adaptations. Whenever I see Kevin Hart or The Rock or Jack Black i just know it's a cash grab. More so when it's all three together. (The Rock isn't in it)

Juancho5129d ago

When you see actors like that in a movie you can expect it to be bad, i definitely do. They have good chemistry but the movie doesnt shine because it just banks on their presence and people going to see them.

Inverno29d ago

Pfft, literally said yesterday how it must be nerve wracking for the devs and then this shite. People aren't looking to get fired, and these companies don't care in the slightest.

Andrew33629d ago

People aren't looking to get fired. Good insight.

kaos8929d ago (Edited 29d ago )

Inflation post 1/20/2020 is really causing pain to everyone. The cherry on top was companies waiting post 11/8/2022 to start doing layoffs. Hmm, I wonder why they waited past that date... Staring with Google in January 2023 and everyone following suit there after.

anast29d ago

Companies that over-hire should be fined heavily and the CEO loses his/her bonus during layoffs, and that money can go to the workers that they laid off.

Leeroyw28d ago

There's a lot going on in this post that needs further scrutiny.

anast28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

It's a game forum. But you are free to chose one and argue it.

Shiore2u29d ago

I hope Pitchford got let go for the sake of employee safty. The man is a walking grease fire waiting to happen.
