I noticed at Gamestop today that they had this game being released on 10/7/08. Anyone else really excited? And yes, I know its probably gonna suck so lets get that outta the way first. Aliens is one of my all-time favorite movies. I always thought playing as the ill fated marines would be awesome and it looks like I'll get my chance. Gamespot really doesn't have any info on it. Has anybody else heard anything?

That may be a leaked date for the game. No one knows when that game is going to come out.

there was a big thing about it in GI a while back. it's being made by Gearbox though (brothers in arms)... it's honestly probably going to be good.

All I have seen is some a few limited screen shots of the game. It "looks" awesome. With great lighting effects.

I'd like to see a gameplay video though. If it is indeed by the people that made brothers in arms, i'd expect two things, one that the game is awesome, with great AI - and two, that the game will be heavily delayed!

I read a few pages on the two new Alien games they have coming out probably sometime this year if not next year. Still I loved the movies and hopefully they make a good Alien game, but remember watch out for the acid!

Aliens is my all-time favorite movie, so I've been dreaming of this game for years. It's in good hands (Gearbox) and the developers are passionate about the movie. I have every reason to believe it will turn out to be a great game. But it's not coming out this year.

I wouldn't trust the date until the developers/publishers put a date on the official website. Lots of games sites put a guesstimate of the date so they can start taking preorders

I'll wait till 2010 as long as the game ends up being good. Personally I would like to see the game follow the movie pretty close in story. Its my fave one in all 4. The first battle scene in the movie was awesome and would be so intense to play (with same music too of course). I could picture the movie having kind of a gritty look to it like COD4 which I think would look sweet. Heck, they could use the same engine for all I care. Swap out those enemy soldiers and add some aliens and youve got gaming gold.

Seriously guys, until a company officially announces a release date for its game, release dates on retailer websites are just placeholders and are usually nowhere near right.

When an official date comes out it will be listed on GS or IGN or any other gaming site. If you read it there, it's probably right. If not, take it with a pinch of salt.

Aliens: Colonial Marines is listed as TBA on GS.

I hope its similar to AvP2, which was amazing for the PC. :D
