Please god

[GAME OVER MAN]

please god let this game be everything i'm hoping it is. AVP that came out last year was so fail...so so fail. the original avp in 2000 was sweet and avp 2 was good as well, but they had their shortcomings.

PLEASE let this be a true Aliens game. I want to be in a dark room, sweating it out, flinching at every noise, gripping my pulse rifle while i watch my teammate on co-op weld the door shut because the hive is coming.....

a co-op, realistic, aliens game could be so epic, i just really hope they don't screw it up. No uber-guns with unlimited ammo, no unrealistic run-and shoot jump shooting, yet not blocky and hard to move.

Should be survivors on hadley's hope type maps with limit weapons and ammo that you have to find, 'zombie-esc' type game but with freaky fast moving aliens.

If you can pick up and manipulate objects in 'Half-life 2' you should be able to do it in this game. I want to block air ducts, weld objects, and pick up supplies. Half life 2 came out years ago....they should be able to do it with this.

i have so many friends that are fans, and we're just WAITING for a good aliens game. we cried and held each other in the fetal position when AVP 2010 was so fail.

Ahh, very true and echoing the sentiments of so many people who come here. AvP3 has left a bitter taste in the mounths of the Aliens community that is going to need a great game from Gearbox to erase.

There are so many great FPS games out there. Halflife 2 is the king of shooters but there are also games such as Left 4 Dead which offer some great inspiration for a Aliens Game.

Welcome to the community. Make sure you tell them friends of yours to drop by too.

yea left for dead is a good example, so is nazi zombies on COD being able to board up windows and fall back into new areas. (except nazi zombies they get harder every level and that gets old and tedious.)

Glad to hear so many people are on the same page, here's hoping the developers listen to the fans and do us one right!

Trailer is out. This doesn't mean the game is out soon though.... But SEGA VP did say that we'd hear something in next couple months.

Ironically that teaser trailer was made back in 2008. They didn't even bother to release it until now it seems although the first time I saw it leaked onto the internet, it was a "live" version in front of a large audience. It must have been shown at a con or video gaming fair first.

As for whether this game will be all we have dreamed and hoped for since it was announced more than two years ago . . . I dunno! So far I am intrigued by what I have seen. It will be a squad based shooter with co-op playability. The game itself will feature no HUD and be quite a visceral experience, with only your proximity detector, trusty firearm and your buddies to help you out. Gearbox is often quite a competant developer, although "Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway" turned out to be only an "ok" game compared to the previous games in the franchise. However Gearbox since released "Borderlands" and that game was very well recieved among the gaming community (although I have not played it yet). The developing team for "Colonial Marines" seem pretty excited to reveal this game although that is no guarentee of quality as we saw with Rebellion's latest "AvP". Very few people who work on a game or film are honest enough to admit "it isn't good" before their product is released.

Here's hoping!
