Re: Aliens colonial marines


[re: mrnelster] [link to this post]
 
I totally agree mate having just picked up the Devil May Cry Hd collection from the days of the playstation 2.i really used to adore those games but after playing a little tonight i have to ask myself the same question.

Why did i bother ?

There is no way on earth i am going to play through these games when i have the likes of Dead Space,Uncharted,MW3,Red Dead Redemption,Bulletstorm and many many more.

Im done with retro classic from the past as they just don't cut it anymore.

I knew then Gearbox has done something no one has been able to do with an Alien game yet. They have completely captured the chaos of a xenomorph attack. I felt as if I was playing out a scene from the movie Aliens. I was ecstatic to feel I was finally playing a proper Aliens game.


Sounds good to me. smile

I really don't see what you see in this game matey,ive watched the trailers and if i am totally honest it looks utter garbage.

Yeah the pulse rifles sound realistic along with the motion tracker but the actual killing of the aliens looks very tame indeed.sort of Playstation 2 graphics tame. tongue

Yeah, I wasn't blown away with the mp video demo either but I hadn't realised the aliens were human (and not AI) controlled.

Anyway, it's not really the mp mode that interests me as it's hard to see how being without a good gun, it's going to be a match for someone who has one, even if you can climb the walls.

I do like the Aliens universe and some of the films had really good survival stories to them. A game that could get anywhere near close to reliving that feeling has to be good and that's why I quoted the bit I did, as at least it offers some hope.

Anyway, I reckon it'll far too far flat on it actually being a game I'd consider worthwhile shelling out for but at least the graphics are looking good and from the positive remarks made by the guys previewing the game, if there's more than a slim chance it'll have a decent story to it, then I can remain a little hopeful until proven otherwise.

Its the developers that worry me to be plane and simple,not exactly ground breaking like Rockstar and a fair few others are they.

When its near release date Spook we will get a better idea,especially when the reviews start flooding in from the same sites that say its looking so so cool only to dish the dirt once released.........Ign been a prime example of promoting and hyping a game to death only to give it abysmal scores once reviewed.

If it turns out brilliant and really favourable then i will take a look but it wont be a game im going to pre/order thats a certainty wink

Made that mistake far to many times and its about time i went with my gut instincts with certain games and leave them for others to enjoy and stop been suckered in by the hype.

Saying that I'm really hyped for Prototype 2 and the destruction,then Max Payne 3 then Ghost Recon Future Soldier.

Wossa matter, you chicken? tongue

I honestly didn't think the graphics were that bad? The reviewer thought the textures were better than expected. I thought it looked far superior visually to Pukem, not that you need a AAA title to beat that eyesore. I agree about IGN and the like though. They anticipate 10/10 for graphics say, the game delivers 8/10 on release and they then give it 4.5 or something ridiculous for graphics because it didn't fulfil it's potential. Stuff and nonsense.
