There's a new short interview with Composer Kevin Riepl at Nerdreactor, ACM got a mention:

N.R: You are currently working on Gearbox's Aliens: Colonial Marines, by SEGA. Coming from a long list of credits that don't have any predecessors, do you feel when it comes to something that has been in the realm of video games and films for some time that there is this looming expectation of it? Do you take that, turn around, and use the notion for drive to exceed anything else before and make it your own?

K.R: Yes, I definitely think there is looming expectations for this game and its music. Fans are hoping you don't screw it up or create something that takes them out of the Aliens universe. Without a doubt I take that excitement and use it for inspiration and drive. To blend James Horner, Jerry Goldsmith and a little bit of myself into a score is somewhat of a daunting task not to mention an awesome opportunity. So far, what I've created for the game is fitting perfectly within the Aliens universe and franchise. Being a huge fan of the first 2 films, it's an honor to be able to blend elements of Goldsmith and Horner infused with a touch of Riepl!

A new screenshot from a print press kit was released today by mistake. It should be officially released around the end of August so if you happen to come across it, please refrain from posting it here.

[Chris!(($$))!]

Oooh... I know one of the gold diggers will find it.

[ikarop]

Never! The screenshot isn't very revealing anyway. It shows a group of marines fighting xenos on a corridor/tunnel from the player's perspective. It will be officially released soon so no worries.

[Ratchetcomand]

Any word on a official release date other then Spring 2012?

[ikarop]

Nothing official yet.

Thats sounds cool. I want to see it more now... 

Edit: I actually found a very small picture of what I believe is the screenshot. But its too small to give me my ALIENS fix. Its like taking an advil when you need f**king vicodin.
