Universally panned from critic and gamers alike.

 

AI is meant to be broken beyond belief, story forgets largely that its an alien game and becomes a cod one.

Annoying as the Aliens franchise deserves an awesome FPS game that takes full advantage of the graphics and effects modern hardware can

create.

 

Sounds like this game was in development hell and was poorly managed. I was reading that Gearbox outsourced the game to another studio to allow them to concentrate on other projects. They weren't happy with the state it was handed back to them and asked Sega for more time. However given the fact this game had been in development since 2006/07 Sega apparently said no and that is why the game is the mess it is.

 

I saw the following video and it highlights the differences between the release and the demo that was shown not so long ago...

Yup they fucked it up It was a bad call Ripley.....a bad call.

 

Just about finished the campaign, it's not all bad, there are some redeeming parts, I get excited using the pulse rifles and motion trackers just for the actual sounds taken from the film

The AI is shit though and the storyline dubious and game play repetitive. Pity really this could have been a great game. Not played MP yet but I'd give it 6.5 out of 10

longevity? and playability?
