So the review went up and the game got a magnificent score of 4.5. I expected the game to be bad but good God that's pretty terrible. Feel bad for people who were expecting this to be any way good.

I knew it was a flop incoming but I expected a 6.5 at worst and 7.5 at best. But 4.5 is pretty crap

Do you think a couple of patches could improve it by 2.0 scores?

I want the Alien and Predator games handed over to Visceral and EA. Dead Space 3 is more Alien then this actual Alien game. That's really bad. To make it even worse I'm suggesting EA of all publishers/devs to take over something.

Yeah EA could only make it better. This game could have been cool using Frostbite 2.0

I think it has to get a little better if the patch improves things.

How did they make it so bad with the talent they had to make the game?
Bradley Thompson and David Weddle from Battlestar Galactic helping out, some good voice acting, some good musicians doing the score,etc.. but damn what a fail

Has the AvP franch got a curse on it? Every game they release with any ties seems to be bad.

And I don't understand how Gearbox can make two very competent shooters in the form of BiA and Borderlands and then totally goof this one up. Especially considering the amount of time they've had to work on the this. Talk about hit or miss.

LoLs called it.

It did seem to come from the Duke side of Gearbox and not the Boarderlands side/team.

Wonder what Angry Joes going to say...

Made a whole video on on this game would kick @$$....

Well, that's to be expected from you.

i expected you to be butthurt that some fans might enjoy this game.

You know you're a bad troll when the only comeback you can muster is calling someone butthurt.

I cancelled my preorder. Worst case scenario, I will have to cover meagre 5 bucks for the shipment (it was free, though) but I'm honourable enough to refund their shipping. Having a wedding in July, one cannot throw away almost 60 bucks for nothing...Honestly, if you were me, what else would you do?

Who is he trolling?

That word gets tossed around far too casually these days, it's lost all meaning.

G'bye SEGA, you made some good games, but outside of Sonic and Total War, most of the stuff you publish now is s***.

The game's release taught me extremely valuable life lesson - to appreciate the value of life, what we have and that we take so many things for granted. Now I infinitesimally appreciate what Rebellion did in 2010.

Gearbox track record of producing such shocking games is out of this world!

Oh and don't forget people, support the developers by buying their games new!

Yes, then the next review gives it a 8.5, I just can't believe they can be that far apart. You just can't trust these reviews any more, I don't even see why they continue.

Does this game look far off from the cancelled Aliens: Colonial Marines PS2 game from 2002? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIeLGifENbI Judging by Aliens behaviour - NOT

Actually despite critics scores and put bugs and flaws aside the previous AvP was quite good ( single player wise ). The marine campaign was one of the most memorable campaign in an fps game

From the trailers and stuff it looked like an awesome game. Maybe the pc version would be worth playing. Probably doesnt have the frame rate issues.

BTW this is what the lead level designer put some time ago:  and mind you, this picture has been since removed from its original location...so most likely he had to remove it.
