February 2010.
I've been waiting on a good Alien game since I was 12. This looks sweet.
They're already working on Aliens: Colonial Marines, which looks like a squad based game centered around just the marines. 10/27/2009 7:27:35 PM |

As far as good "space marines" vs. aliens games go, I've always liked that old game Natural Selection. In the standard Natural Selection play, the Frontiersmen attack the Kharaa (alien) hives and the Kharaa attack the Frontiersman command console (where the player commander sits). The whole game is build like an RTS, resources are in play with the building of resource towers on the resource nodes to be able to upgrade weapons and abilities. One marine is the Commander who sits in the command console and plays the game like a regular RTS with human players as his units. The aliens have distributed resources and can do as they please individually, but need to coordinate for success.
Once played a round as a marine that lasted 3 hours against a good alien team. The mod is old being based on HL1, but they're building a new one, NS 2 on their own engine.

This was *THE* game we played on ncsu's network when I was a freshman. My "hold this button to crawl on any surface" button is going to get wore out. 10/29/2009 3:04:44 PM |

Quote : | "The wristblades allow for the Predator to perform a "trophy kill," a nod to the movies in which the Predators take trophies, usually skulls, from their defeated enemies to show their prowess in the hunt. OXM labelled the trophy kill mechanic as so "spectacularly violent" that they believe it will be cut from the final game to avoid an Adults Only rating in the United States as it was "several measures more graphic" than any other recent games. The animation for trophy killing a marine with a Predator is the only one known, though the Aliens also have a trophy kill system that is "far less disturbing." To begin the Predator's trophy kill, a "terrified" marine is dragged into the centre of the screen by his or her throat, which the Predator then snaps effortlessly with the accompanying sound of "someone biting into raw celery." The neck broken, the Predator decapitates the marine, a "sizeable portion" of the spinal cord following. Even after this, the marine is still alive for a short period of time, "gasping his last, with nothing but bloodied, glistening vertebra beneath his chin."" |

I'm impressed that they got Lance Henriksen to play Bishop again. This story already looks about a smabillion times better than the AVP movies, which isn't hard to imagine. (Although I did actually like the Wolf Predator from the last one...) 1/20/2010 12:11:17 PM |

I always loved having 1 or 2 other aliens on my team to coordinate attacks and lure people into rooms. Oh, man hiding directly above doorways or leaping across...<shiver> wall crawling was so much fun. 1/21/2010 11:23:08 AM |

I can't decide if I want to get this for PC or 360 now. Controls aren't a factor for me since I have a mouse and keyboard for the 360. On the one hand, if the PC version has a console which can be manipulated, then that's the way I'll likely go. On the other hand, my friends will be getting this on 360. Hmmm... 1/21/2010 12:24:32 PM |

Here's some more gameplay as the predator. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYXehSi6KJQ LOL at using the severed head on the retina scanner.
Another video I watched had someone mention a mode of multiplayer where 8 marines are pursuing one predator. Whoever kills him gets to be the predator in the next round.
I'm hopeful that the alien mode begins with bursting through someones ribcage. 1/29/2010 6:10:34 PM |

I dunno, I'm going to claim poverty until the day it is released... Although you can buy it on steam right now and get a free game until then... But it's not Alien vs Predator 2000, it's some crappy RTS game. A good deal, I guess, to get a $20 game for free, but I'd seriously rather get the $5 related game for free. I guess I want that because I already own the old game, just doesn't run on any of my computers 2/1/2010 9:46:45 AM |
