Aliens: Colonial Marines still alive, DS edition planned

Release!

I hope this game comes out. I didn't like AVP game, maybe because I like the mystery of the alien movies.

why are they focusing on the soso looking Borderlands when they have one of the biggest IP"s out there especally when a rival company are also making one,this company are losing thier grip,it will flop just like the long delayed dissappointingly bland BIA and everybody will buy AVP instead,great management dumbf*cks

I have been waiting for this game all to long, but it looks like it'll be worth it. All "Alien" fans be warned, there is a rumor going around from a very reliable source that 20th century fox is trying to remake the first Alien movie, knowing how the AVP franchise has been going you can only imagine what the movie would be like.

after all this time - jerking fans around - these games had better be worth the $70 - $80 that they're gonna want out of everybodies pockets when and if they ever do come out.

What I saw posted on the gamestop page for this was that it was coming out on the last day of December... and AVP was coming out January 19th... Just wanted to tell all of you guys that.

@TWayne1020, I fully agree, a game like this is way better 1st person. My buddies and me all grew up loving the movies, how awesome is it going to be to play it co-op over xbox live? Pulse rifles, smart guns and the blip of the motion tracker? Two words: Freakin' awesome!

It's great this is coming out, with the markets flooded with FPS games (many of which are actually real good), hopefully they can build some innovative elements into the game and capture the tension of the film, but I'm sure I'll buy it regardless.

Thank God it's first person !!!

Man I hope this game comes out. I will put on reserve now if I could. r4

I'd still prefer to get the new AVP, this has been in production for far too long will probably end up like Duke Nukem, never coming out awww bless

WHOO-HOO!!! I'm really looking forward to this game. The movie has to be one of my all-time favorites. I really hope they can capture at least some of the mood and feelings and give us 80's kids a thrill.

Thank god the game is still coming out

lol @ Hillsy's comment. Aliens probabaly has some of the greatest one liners in the movie industry. The first 3 films in the franchise were incredible and deserve a game to do them justice. I hope this will be the one. "Let's roooooooock!"

For sure i gonna buy AVP and Aliens C M !! untill there try DEAD SPACE , remind in some way ALIENS , can keep you busy till the release day !!

Modern sci-fi movies are pathetic, for the most part. No one makes great movies like Aliens anymore. Except maybe James Cameron himself, and I'm expecting Avatar to be the sci-fi movie of the decade.

pepole who love aliens join together !!!!!!! damn honest to god i watch that movie about 50 times for real ,love it so much its amazing how movie made in 86 still rulezzz and stilll kick loads of modern s-f movies ehhhhh so cant wait for that game ..........................plz dont ruin it.......

"aliens colonial marines just looks like another doom 3 to me.. only minus the bfg and the chainsaw." YEAH now compare the movies lmao .... no contest IMHO.

What a bunch of retards, they have an amazing IP like Aliens and they put it on the back burner for borderlands. Get a grip.

Thank God. -Although I would prefer an Aliens RPG.

It's been ages since I heard anything about this one, but intially the idea sounded fantastic. As 'plm3d basic' said, it's interesting how they seemed to have pushed the AVP 3 game ahead of the Colonial Marines one. And yes, it is a fps with co-op (think it ws originally intended to be online multiplayer). Should be good when it eventually comes out. 'It's Game Over man! Game over!' The 80's ruled : )

Ever since i first heard about this game ive wanted it, great to hear!

Sounds like a lot of you are confused about what this game is really about, not surprising since gameinformer's coverage was years ago. It's not an rpg, not a doom style shooter, but a 4 player co-op shooter. Think left 4 dead or republic commando with Aliens! Excited now? Your welcome.

"Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?"

aliens colonial marines just looks like another doom 3 to me.. only minus the bfg and the chainsaw.

I wonder how they'll try to distinguish this game from the AVP 3 game by Rebellion which would include all three classes of gameplay characters.

YES!!! About time, big Alien fan, i was scared that it got the axe but this is good to hear, Its looking more likely that 2010 is going to be a good year for Aliens with two games coming out. And Kweeni....there was two Aliens games being made, one was a rpg, the other was being made at the same time i think which was the fps..but i think that one got the axe.

wait this is a rpg? i thought it was a fps lol

Fantastic! Loved AvP on PC, and am definately excited about this.

how is it going to be an RPG?? can you pick to be a medic or stuff like that? or can you be different types of aliens?? or make an alien??? or make your own marine?? WTF???!?@?@#?$#?$?@

YES this and AvP game, time for sci fi glory. I was soooooo sad when I heard this was cancelled, this made my day.

Cant wait, loved the movie will probably love the game.

I'm excited :] I was sad when I thought they had cancelled this game.

Weak. Who cares about another stupid FPS. Aliens RPG!

"Alien Colonial Marines Forever" ? Hope not, i'm a Aliens fans

god help.......... so cant wait for that and plzzzz do not let them f....k up, but everything look so good and so profesional , but so was matrix 2 and 3................................................................huge hope

This isn't news, he talked about that when he was live on your show.

Thank God, it's still alive.

"Press start, man!! Press start!!"

I love this part "we decided a while ago to try to ignore the rumors and speculation that we've seen come out about it. We prefer instead to focus on our objectives and our craft of game-making." this shows that this company cares about what they are making, and believe that what they are making will be a huge success and i personally do not doubt that, with an attitude like that, it shows us that they care about the future people, gamers, hard core gamers and everyone else that will play the game. developers and video game companies do not have to pay attention to us on our eager for the game to come out, they should and have to pay attention to our comments about what we want from the game, and the experience we expecting to receive from the video game itself, not when and date we want the game.

oh sweet.... I'm glad this is still in dev..... this is my most wanted Sega game right now

...the ds edition better be good!

Gearbox is a good developer, I hope they will put nice effort into this game

Good news. good news indeed

F***ing Hey!!!

This will be really great and fun game. Finally it is still alive.

Let's Rock!
