Could AVP be an "outta nowhere" AAA title, like Arkham Asylum?

not many people gave arkham asylum much hope. everyone thought it would be all flash an no substance, even more so because it was being made by an obscure, unknown development studio without any previous AAA games. this game could very well be a GOTY contender if it is done right. so far, it promises much, and if it delivers it could an amazing game indeed. horde mode, class-based multiplayer, 3 seperate campaigns, and outstanding visuals.

If it's a return to the AvP2 quality then I'll cream my pants.

Alot of people were hyped for AA, as for AVP yea I think it could be AAA, so far it looks extremely good, as long as they handle the MP well they have it in the bag.

I wouldn't hold my breath for it though, since the developer hasn't put out the best games recently.

I hope this doesn't disappoint. Either way, if it's of decent quality then it'll be AAA to me since I love AvP.

Definitely. The original AvP was amazing, and the same developer is making the new one.

From looking at Rebellion's track record, I'd say not a chance.

Not even the movies have been good so I don't put much confidence in this game being any good whatsoever.

The movies were cheap cash-ins on the comics and games.

With Rogue Warrior, I'm almost certain that they didn't focus on that because of AvP. With Shellshock, possibly the same thing. Of course, every developer has bad games.

Wanna know the main reason why I'm not hyping this much? It's being made by Rebellion. AvP can easily be another Rogue Warrior or Shellshock.

With Rogue Warrior, I'm almost certain that they didn't focus on that because of AvP. With Shellshock, possibly the same thing. Of course, every developer has bad games.

But the majority of their games received poor reception.

:lol: What's funny is Rebellion trashed those games in an interview, trying to make us believe they have changed their ways. ShellShock 2 and Rogue Warrior were turds, AvP will be a polished turd.

that would be awsome if it was (because then, ya know. sequels. and possibly lighting a fire under the arse of the Colonial Marines dev to finally finish that game). and as someone said earlier, if it brings the quality of AvP2, with the great visuals from the screenshots. oh yeah, it'll be criminal if it doesn't score a 9.

From all I've read/seen/heard about it, it's a solid 8-8.5 at least.

the developers already addressed that the amount of their work with AvP 3 surpasses rogue warrior and the rest. They know how to make AvP games and they have proof...just play their old games..... Its kinda like a "watch and see" type of thing.

Doesnt really matter what they put out this gen or when judge it by the quality of the actual game and not the past, all you have to do is watch some dev interviews and trailers to see they have put alot of effort into this game. The game looks awesome so far, people need to be a little open minded, this game will be AA at the very least and AAA maybe.

Although I really want this to be a good game, I am going to take the wait and see approach. Hopefully there will be a demo.

Doubt it. Rocksteady showed they had talent with their debut title. Rebellion has had a pretty shoddy track record for the last 5-8 years. This will likely be their best game in a long time, the predator demonstration I saw somewhere looked alright. But I'm not expecting this game to be much more than that.

Wait and see is the best approach to this one. I hope their previous games were poor due to their focus on this game.

It's possible. Though I'm doubting it heavily. I love the originals on PC. Have had my eyes on this for quite awhile now.

So that's where it comes from. I remember playing the game on the SNES but no idea it was a comic series. It was freaking hard but fun.

There were plenty, and plenty of quality footage...I've been drooling all over it like 3 months ago, I think, but now I'm too lazy to search for the links, plus it's very late here where I live now...I hope you won't take me as a bad person  . I can dig for some footage tomorrow.

I never did play the game, funnily enough. The comics were written by Frank Miller, the guy who wrote Sin City and The Dark Knight Returns.

Exactly what I was about to say. As for Bioware, go play Shattered Steel and then say they haven't made a bad game.

I have personally been on a complete black out on that game, with the exception of a few screen shots i know nothing about the game. I am just hoping to come on gamespot one day and see a big fat AA or AAA next to it and read about how cool it is on the forums, because AVP used to be one of the best games both single and multiplayer. Would be a good day to have good addition in the series.
