QuoteI think the big game to watch this week is going to be Alien: Blackout. We got an early copy of the game, and it's really good. Unfortunately, I have a feeling it's going to be absolutely roasted by the Real Gamer crew who have been trained to believe all mobile games are garbage. However, if you don't share that belief and are without an extreme anti-mobile bias, I think most people will really dig it- Particularly if you have any interest in the Aliens universe.

So it's already tomorrow in Japan and a few bits are cropping up on Twitter. Nothing mega so far.

For sure I wanted an actual Alien Isolation 2 in the place of this but I'm not opposed to this new game. I quite loved AVP Evolution so I'm down for another mobile Alien game especially if it isn't free to play pay to win.

Works on tablets too.

Im still enjoying AvP Evolution on my phone.. funny how my lil phone has more power than almost all the consoles I grew up with combined. Has a bigger screen than a lot of hand held gaming systems did too.

The way I see it, it doesnt matter if it ends up being the very best game ever created. Playing in the tiny screen of your phone is wrong for a game like this. Imagine they confirm there is an Alien tv series in the making, but somehow you wont be able to see it in a TV, only  phones. It would suck just as much and I hardly think anyone would defend that.

Also, on a personal level, I've spend lots of money on having a gaming PC, and a PS4 Pro with PSVR, and a Nintendo Switch, I'm not algo going to spend money on a $1000 phone just to play a game (even a game I really want to play). I dont think my third-hand $100 phone is able to even install this. Phones are for calling and texting, maybe a casual angry birds game. Alien deserves more than this.

However, I hope that this sells well so in the future they consider porting it to PC/consoles. It has happened with other mobile games, I think.

Another hands-on. Another positive one.

QuoteAlien: Blackout is not at all what I imagined. It does an admirable job of capturing the tension and suspense of the Alien franchise in a unique and enjoyable way. It also manages to avoid all of the negative aspects of mobile games; namely, cheap graphics and microtransactions. As a person who normally doesn't give these titles a second glance, Alien: Blackout demonstrates the untapped potential of mobile platforms. Hopefully, we'll get more games of this kind moving forward.

Hmm, I think I may have used the word Netflix as a generic term for a tv show that is accessible on a streaming platform.  What I meant was an ongoing show on s streaming platform whether it be HBO, Netflix, Disney or wherever else an Alien show may appear.

Something for Disney's streaming service, maybe?

If This is intended to be a Tie-In to a Netflix series that goes by the same name with this sort of look... awesome!

I'm skeptical that Fox would enter into a new venture with Netflix at this time.

Fairly so, I would say, but the rumors of an Aliens show have been swirling for months now, and since the word "watch" doesn't relate to a film, what does that leave?
