That can't be in game? surely? It looks like a pre rendered cutscene to me?
Wow.
That looks awesome :o
Any idea how old this is? A recent shot or one from months/years ago?
Bit confused about this shot tbh. I asked around and it's mostly real time. Those are real assets, but it might have been a test map. I think it's an old shot anyway. I'd need to confirm it, tho. Edit: Just in case anyone was still wondering. Just confirmed it to be a old screenshot. Dated around the same time as the two others.
looks like a Shake-and-bake.
infact, looks exactly like Hadley's hope.
Don't think it looks that great TBH. Hoping it's an old shot.
There are a couple more screenshots on that page. No question they're in-game, doesn't look quite as pretty as AvP3 from what I can see (hard to tell with all the rain and murkiness), but seems to do a better job of capturing the feel of Aliens.
There're some bitching coronas and specular effects on the dropship, but some very flat textures on the hypersleep pods and nearby floor.
It's from the vertical slice, probably for a film to game comparison for Sega.
Other shots? Can I haz link?

Just click on the image from the 1st post. It links to the source.
Oh, those are just two old ones that are a bit altered I am guessing since Lorin a while back said he edited one for his own uses. Still nice that its being updated on his site at least.
Nothing to get excited about, it's just a blurry screenshot of a colony in the rain.
When we get a trailer or some actual news about when this game is coming out, then I'll care.
Anyways its better than nothing, but im not exited, because they look like ****, no srsly - concept is good, but testures are bad.
Aliens versus Predator(3) was just some kind of a beta, a demo that they sold as a full game.
I hope this time we will see a game made with dedication and with the quality that it deserves.

Going by Gearbox's current record, I'm not sure how this will turn out. I also think AvP is highly underrated, I'll gladly play it until -and after- Colonial Marines comes out.
I know this is currently in the in the current build of the game, at PAX (2010) there was a screen showing the marines and a "BA" was shown glowing in the background the "BAR" looks exactly like it.
Nice screenshot. Hoping for more to come in the near future. :)
Wow with the recent trailer and now this I'm actually getting hopeful that this will be announced officially soon.

It doesn't looking very polished I admit, but at least if it's somewhat recent it gives up hope that Gearbox are still working on it. I think I speak for everyone when I say this game can't come soon enough :) .
hey 2011 is going to be good for us ALIEN & PREDATOR fans because the predator hounds are coming in spring the figures and alien 5 and lets not forget aliens game coming out in november ;D

If you think AvP3 was underrated then something tells me you will like this game as I am betting A:CM will be MUCH better than AvP3.

That's something we'll have to wait to find out, but Gearbox sure as hell are taking their sweet time releasing info. Even Duke Nukem: Forever is getting released before Colonial Marines, what a joke.

Its actually not a joke considering DNF was announced a good 9 years I think before A:CM.
Yo quit hatin' please. This looks awesome. All I want is more Aliens stuff.
The haters need to realize our franchise is almost dead. Support it so we can have more of it, is my opinion.

Apparently as old as the rest of them.
Looks good enough to be playable. Fancy graphics aren't everything.
Are You Guys Happy With Anything That Comes Your Way? ???
As Long As I Know This Game Is In The Works and doesn't get replaced by Borderlands 2, then im happy.
Sega need to seriously onsider giving us something worthy of out patience and time. This trickle of non-information is casting all involved parties in a poor light. They must have SOMETHING to show us...

And you know the game is in the works, so we're half way there.
I will admit, if Borderlands 2 is placed in front of A:CM, I will probably stop following A:CM's slow development but once its the priority again I would return. This is entirely what if. ??? ::) :P

How The Hell Do we Know It's in The Works? All We've Recieved Is Old Images That Have Been Put Into Hi-res and the typical bullshit excuse of "We're Working REALLY hard on this game." Even though they decided to take on the Duke Nukem project aswell as more Borderlands DLC.
And how exactly are we half way there? At which point could you call half way? Half way for most people is a confirmed release date and press conferences that aren't boxed away where people wont find them or even open them up at all!
Lets take a look at how "Focused they are on Aliens compared to Duke Nukem.
This is the Duke Nukem Forever project that can be found on Gearbox's website.
http://www.gearboxsoftware.com/games/dnf/ (http://www.gearboxsoftware.com/games/dnf/)
Thats been there for less than three months.
Lets look at the one for Aliens.
http://www.gearboxsoftware.com/games/aliens/ (http://www.gearboxsoftware.com/games/aliens/)
Thats been there for at least 2 years, it details absolutely nothing regarding aliens whatsover, even if you choose to read the press release it takes you to a magical world of jack shit!
Gearbox make good FPS Games sure. But i highly doubt SEGA has "THAT" much power over them that they can't release some information for its fans??

Half way there to "making you happy", as you said you need the two things to be happy. Not "half way there" to the game being complete.

Wow, the one has more text so they're so much more focused on it!
And what a surprise, it's the game they're about to release, A:CM comes AFTER, I thought we were clear on that.

Is it? For all we know Gearbox will probably announce Borderlands 2 at E3 and that will be their big game release of 2011.
For all we know Reb will make another avp before, lolz.
GBX's big 2011 release is DNF.
God this wait is a bitch man.

Still can't shake off that UT3 Look.
