Nothing good has come of avp since avp2. I don't have my hopes up, but we will see....

I think the Aliens look sorta silly, remember as a kid thinking they were awesome, but now... it's just funny looking, especially with the knee like it is, I think it should have a more animal like knee/foot design.

I enjoyed almost every single Alien... AVP (all 3 were good)... and Predator game I have played... I have played a good bit of them all.

I am so glad this isn't cancelled.. Two games now that Gearbox has revived. DNF, and A:CM.

I personally thought AvP3 wasn't as good as AvP2, but still a pretty good game...

I thought the predator campaign was better. Apart from that, marine was average. The alien campaign was pretty bad though.

Can't wait to hear the heightening-pitched beeps of my motion tracker again. It was the single most memorable and most terrifying sound in the original AvP.

Bought the latest AvP game when it went on sale a while ago. Haven't played it until recently and have to say that I think it is a pretty fun game. Beat the marine campaign and halfway through the predator. It may not be as good as AvP 2, but still pretty cool. Haven't messed with the MP yet though.

Is this a continuation of that game? Cruz is showing up, but I can't remember the main character's name.

No. I believe you'll be playing only as the Marines and you'll definitely only be fighting aliens.

No, I think it happens between the movies ALIENS and ALIEN3. Marines go back to see what happened??? I could be wrong. As for AvP MP, don't bother...it's pretty dead and buggy. SP was great fun as you say though.

I wonder, are they still using the terrible pulse rifle sound? It was defiantly one of the worst sound effects in any movie or game that I've ever heard.

Even though it doesn't sound remotely realistic, I still think the sound of the pulse rifle is iconic to the Alien series. To take that away would be a big step away from the originality of the games/movies.

Well, it's a bad sound effect, I don't mind that it's unrealistic, but it sounds very... what's a word for it... fatiguing to hear, that's the best I got...

Honestly I've been playing a bit of AVP(3) survival mode - haven't touched singleplayer, and I'm not minding it at all. The Aliens are fantastically animated, aggressive, mobile, and their A.i. is good enough to make interesting foes. It's pretty good, even if the multiplayer demo was so-so. So I'm looking forward to Colonial Marines, I just hope its plot is a bit better than the predictable 'oh the corporations are baaaaad, setting us up again it's all so baaaad they're the real villains woe woe'. That and all that jazz about good combat feedback, tactical options and some HR Giger enviroments showcased.
