Aliens : Colonial Marines - FPS ( They're back ! )

[MadMossy]

I'm just baffled by how a game that has been in development for the best part of 7 years can be so pants. No wonder they put an embargo on reviews until release day. I bet it still makes a profit as well despite it being worse than a poke in the eye with a rusty spork. To me it was rushed and there is no way on earth this is 7 years of work. More like 6 months.

The game is ruff, but i shall get my moneys worth if that's possible.

After those reviews and comments only one thing left to say ' Marines, we are leaving'

I played SP and MP last night for a few hours..

Actually quite like the game... yeah its not graphically intense and MP is a bit basic but its the only game that's been out recently that I actually look forward to going home and playing..

I finally got my copy to work and download and as expected the game is crud of the highest order.

I totally agree, i think it looks pretty good, action is great. AI not too bad either.

I like the back to basics game play too, no twaddling about all over the place,its a good old corridor shooterwiith some cool weapon upgrades, and finding the dog tags, well i never look for that kind of thing in games, but this time i am.

Overall if you lower your expectations a bit, its a very good enjoyable romp

Yeah but if i heard right it was left in limbo for a few years and wasn't touched.

Only 30 secs long, but it is quite funny.

My mate decided to buy this so I might head round tonight and see the game myself. Sometimes I enjoy games which get awful reviews;p
