It's been a while since I played it but I'll be getting it again soon - I lent it to a friend and never got it back  >:( I rather enjoyed it, not alot but a fair bit. What did you guys think of it?

I despise it. And it was such a nice idea, too. Just terribly executed.

I enjoyed extinction, it was a budget priced game that I didnt expect much from. But I did enjoy it, building mass amounts of Aliens or hearing the Preadtor roar as he ripped out the spine. Also it had a great intro video.

I hated it for quite a long time after only renting it when it was released. Bought it this year on ebay and I really like it. I love the alien life cycle and all the different units. I completed every mission. I just wish it would have been on PC.

Think I'm gonna get a new copy for Christmas, actually. I did like it but it was such a wierd game for me to play. Sometimes I'd fly through it, other times I'd be utterly useless.  :-\

But yeah. A PC version would have been so much better. It'd have allowed for more complex gameplay and more emersion into the world. I mean, imagine it. Build your own colony/hive, build APCs and Dropships and etc.

Not to mention, it could be online as well.

The game could've been better, but I liked it anyway.

I got up to 100 aliens on level 5

No, me neither. But I'm just imaging how it would work. One player plays as a species, then another player plays as the other species.

A decent game that should have been for PC, have had multiplayer and allowed ease of customization (there more than just a few skins that I would have changed).

I thought Extinction was ok at the time i played it, but like others have said, it would of been better on PC and with multiplayer. Only problem i had with is, was how ridiculously powerful the ravagers were...well at least when i was playing as Marines or Preds, and how the story/campaign was too short, also IIRC it lacked a skirmish mode which i thought would of improved it.
