Blu wrote:Aliens Colonial Marines wasn't horrible. For $15, I got enough enjoyment out of it.

If the people on board create a similar atmosphere as the first movie, I'll dig.
It was even as few as $2 recently. Thought about picking it up. Waiting for the $1 sale. :mrgreen:

Regardless, I am interested in this new one. Probably not one I'd buy at launch but certainly a game I will check in on from time to time and maybe buy eventually.

Worst comes to worst, it will be another garbage entry in the series and we'll all be able to pick it up in the 14.99 bargain bin. If it's an improvement over A:CM, then at least there's hope for the future of the series.

I prefer having low expectations on a game and then be surprised with a average game, than having a lot of expectations and being dissapointed bay a average game.

From the preview video I get a real vibe of Doom 3, except they realized that gunplay in Doom 3 detracted from the survival horror; either go full survival horror or go back to the gameplay of Doom 2.

The more I read about this, the more interested I'm becoming. This one has some serious potential if it's done as well as the developer is saying...

Check this video out if you're at all interested in the game - I think the points are valid and the idea for the game really does have potential.

I really hope this game lives up to it's potential. Could really be an intense game if they carry through with everything right.

this is the first i've cared to look at this game, and that video you posted has me truly intrigued. i hope the last-gen versions are decent, i don't have a PS4/XB1 yet.
