Aliens: Colonial Marines in Playstation Magazine
Ha! Next, we're gonna have some deuce by the name of ULTIMATECoDFANBOY coming on here saying that Halo, Medal of Honour, and everything that is Alien and Predator based are straight up rip-offs of CoD-
We have a great variety of xeno specimens such as: drone, rigged warrior, runner, predalien, praetorian, queen, face-hugger and chest burster.
Still have this bad boy somewhere in a box. Possibly one of the few toys I have that is not missing something.
Last year. I believe when the Crusher was revealed.

Or how about Aliens with inflatable sacs on their heads that fill with hot air and allow them to float away.
Or how about an Alien with a shootable tail blade, that regrows within a minute.
Or how about an Alien with a bunch of blades on top of it's head.
I should've been more specific. What I'm saying is that it's not born from the host like that, but it's an alien that was originally exposed to the nuclear fallout. In other words it's been effected by the radiation for so long to the point where it's literally falling apart.
f**k it I give up, I'm just giving it too much thought and I shouldn't care anymore with how ridiculous the game already is.
Lol
So you're basically assuming the worse story ever based on the logic from one line of a press release.
Try this one,

getting sick of the trolling.
Thing is even humans wouldn't mutate, they'd just be really, really f**ked up with hanging flesh, hair falling off, nails falling off. All that gooey nasty shit. If anything the suicide Alien is the first one we've seen that actually looks like it's been burned up/effected by radiation, and that would be cool for me...if it's attack wasn't killing itself.
jim cameron made aliens! thats what happened
I am a big fan of aliens is why I am still following forums related to the game.
The AVP2 model was better then A:CM. IMO.
Every time GBX shows off a new build, many of the problems with previous versions still exist. Whether it's gameplay, animations, graphics, or sound. And with GBX constantly emphasizing authenticity, then seeing how much they're actually screwing up canon-wise... I just don't know. Sometimes I wonder if they've even seen the films.
Besides the changes to the lower half of the body for gameplay purposes, the warrior alien in A:CM is the best looking alien I have seen in any game yet. Really looking forward to the classic aliens in this game.
It's so bad I wonder if it was intentional, but then why?
Although the dreams of Newt were interesting concepts (I recall an unfilmed scene where Ripley 8 dreams of a little girl being engulfed by a swarm of black insects...now that I think of it, isn't that how the sacrificial engineer went out in Spaight's script?)
Are they ignoring Alien Resurrection? Because it should be more like 15 years in the making.
Not to dig on A3 but when it came out in 1992 it didn't scratch that "itch" for the fans who wanted to see more Colonial Marines, so we have been waiting ever since.
Nice cover.
Alternate cover
Where's my Runner skin?
They've had plenty of time to do that, and would have finished by now if it wasn't for them setting up demos for people to play.
We definitely need another delay, I'd want it to be delayed for at least another year in order to just tune this f**ker up, because they've had so many months since the last delay and it looks like they've done nothing. They should stop with showing this game in so many conventions and whatnot, and just work on the damn game.
