The commentary on the youtube footage states that there is no multiplayer for this game. Instead, the game has one long single player campaign. In my opinion, the game appears to be more like Metroid than Contra and in a game like Metroid, a multiplayer mode is not very necessary. The strength of these types of games lies in exploration, storyline, and general sense of isolation.
it's just backround color implying the character, like the avp 2010 cover: predators & aliens are green and the marines were quite like gray.
and the marines on infestation got also an separated color than the aliens. it's just about look.
Ohhhh...I was referring to the user by that name on the other hand, haha.
Do you get it, the Xeno's in the background are yellow. And in Avp Extinction the Bio Xenomorphs are yellow instead of black
Now where's The Yellow Alien at this thread???
Gearbox is involved with this game. And the artwork is owned by Sega. They can do pretty much anything they want with those images no matter the project.
I was about to say that lol... Gearbox will probably do something about that part. I mean they cant just copy the image and simply crop and turn it yellow....OMG!!! It's a Bio-Xeno!!!
Ah the good ol' days
How much to new DS games typically run?
