E3 Demo Reviews

I've found a few reviews of the E3 Demo

MTV:
‘Aliens: Colonial Marines’ Preview - E3 2011 MTV Multiplayer

^I have to admit, I'm not a fan of the new alien "The Crusher", I honestly felt fire in the bottom of my stomach, I've never felt that before. I'm kinda disappointed. I really want it to stay with the "1986 Aliens" theme, just the Queen, and the regular Xenos

I'm very very worried about how this game is finally shaping up.

I still can't see anything similar to a warrior cameralien in the game, just small rabid lizards with lololtails hopping like rabits (the part when that "alien" scapes from a marine shooting at It), very similar to the AVP aliens. About the crusher, well we will see how It is though..., sigh

I though this game was gonna be 100% faithful to Cameron's canon, not only the atmosphere, CM and settings but also the CAMERALIENS, most important thing of all after all.

Yeah, that Crusher alien also made me suspicious ... Maybe that's not the only one surprise awaiting for us.

Anyway, until I don't get my dirty and sweaty hands on demo/beta/something, will not dare to judge that decision (to put new type of alien in)

Btw, here's one more overwiew on SKNR.NET:
Aliens Colonial Marines Overview From E3 2011

"Using a shotgun and later a pulse rifle the demo showed that even with great firepower the marines are at a huge disadvantage." - this one actually made my stomach tickle, lol!

While we knew their were bound to be some surprises in the game. I for one think that just facing the normal swarm of warriors would get very tedious after a while. I'm not saying they should go over board but a little change could be for the better. I mean don't you guys want a variety of death to befall your fellow marines. Hey, at least it wasn't a porcupine alien God forbid.

On the idea of the Crusher, I don't mind it very much as I suspected GB would add in a new alien...Also it will probably act as a praetorian anyway but we'll see.

Also the whole scripted idea, I think that really was for the demo and I hope we don't get alot of scripting however there will be some to help tell the story.

I also agree that we should wait until we get a video/pictures of this "beta demo" before we start losing hope or whatever (I actually am quite happy with what I'm hearing).

E3 Preview: Aliens: Colonial Marines

Interesting, interesting ... : "Brian Martel, co-founder of Gearbox, said that they even sat down with Ridley Scott to get his perspective on the game and he gave them tons of stuff that wasn’t able to fit into the movies." Maybe this explains that new Crusher alien?

I hope this game is as bad azz as it should be... I want a multiplayer like zombies in CoD mode and I'll be happy.
