Welcome to the new look Aliens: Colonial Marines. It can't have escaped your notice that I have upgraded the look of the forums. Let me know what you think of the new look. Personally, I'm rather pleased with it.
And with a new look comes a new start for Aliens: Colonial Marines. With AvP just around the corner, maybe, just maybe we'll start to see some information heading our way about Aliens: Colonial Marines.
In preparation for when Aliens: Colonial Marines reaches us, I have created a Steam Group: AliensColonialMarines (ACM). Please join the group and I'm sure we'll be able to hook up some time for some co-op action (or deathmatch!). AvP is due to be released on Steam shortly, so we'll be able to play some of that cool stuff too.
To celebrate the news of our relaunch. I'm going to be running a little contest. Starting on Monday 1 February and running until Sunday 28 February, we're going to hold a referral contest. Details of the contest can be found elsewhere, but the prize has already been decided.
We'll be gifting the winner of the referral contest a copy of Aliens vs Predator 3 on PC (via Steam):
There will be certain rules to follow. Look in on the competition thread elsewhere for more details.
I hope you all enjoy the new look Aliens: Colonial Marines.

I'm pretty sure you all will get a kick out to the game and feel it was worth the wait.

This was posted on the GBX forums and has been the source for a news item that has hit a number of websites across the internet.
Essentially, this is Gearbox telling us that only Alien, Aliens and Alien 3 are considered true Aliens movies and the rest are just a bit pants. Alien Resurrection, Alien vs. Predator and Alien vs. Predator: Requiem ate rpo be ignored, which is pretty much what every one else in the Alien community thinks anyway.
So thanks, Chris and thanks Lorin. Here are your links:

You hear that? "Gearbox Is Still Working On Aliens: Colonial Marines"
An anonymous "tipster", who may or may not be friends with our mole inside Eidos, told us that testers were called in this week to play some Aliens: Colonial Marines. The game is still in the "very early stages", and that's about all there is to say about it. The good news is, they're still working on it! That's enough to get you excited, right? I'm excited. Fish was unavailable for comment as he is pre-ordering the game for the 8th time.
