Aliens: Colonial Marines DS

[Darkness]

According to Destructoid, a new Aliens DS game was in the works but was cancelled by Sega due to financial reasons. The game was a side-scroller developed by Wayforward in association with Gearbox Software.

Gameplay footage has found its way onto YouTube. Notable scenes include a Space Jockey Alien, a Rhino Alien (?), and a Powerloader fighting with a Queen. Thanks to Mr. Weyland for the news.

Update: Sega had the video removed from YouTube. You can watch the gameplay footage over on GameVideos.

I'm glad it was cancelled. The last thing we need is a Rhino Alien and Space Jokey alien.... Although the powerloader fight looked kinda cool, wonder if somebody would make a flash thing out of that?

[Mr. Weyland]

I kind of guessed this would make the news, its to much of a surprise.

Looks like fun if they released it as a $14 dollar game.

The Jockey Alien looks butt ugly....

Lol, Sega sucks.  They went nuts with the Aliens IP and none of them have been in the gamer's hands except that arcade.

Looks like the good old Alien 3 game for a different console. Interesting song there was. Though as an Alien game it would most deffinetly fail.        The Jockey Alien look should have been taken from the comic book, this one looked bad.

that "gorrilla/rhino" alien looks quite shit asswell. wonder what that mutated giant alien queen at the end is...

[Splinter Cell]

No way man, no way.

[Flaming Firefox]

I have a feeling that this game had the same/similar storyline to pc/xbox/ps3 version has. So I guess we can expect some of.... THIS...
