Sega's European Boss comments on A:CM and CA's upcoming Alien title...

enough with the motion trackers and pulse rifles...

I want a cattle prod and a detection unit! GO!

see, I knew there was one alien purist around at least

Sega should make a new game that contradicts everything that happened in A:CM, just for spite.

Glad I never broke down and bought ACM...

I'd like to see something third person single player

On the contrary, I'm glad I bought the super-fan-boy edition of ACM. I liked the extras, especially the statue. And the box was cool too! Boxes are usually boring!

I've been unofficially calling-for/supporting the idea of a Dead Space-style Alien(s) game that pays more homage to the films in the same way the original Dead Space had limited ammo, jump-scares and a sense of surreal horror. We don't need competitive MP, but Co-Op with one other person would be a nice option.

[quote/]Prometheus was just the icing on the cake, just like the avp movies, clearly designed for the kids and popcorn as well.

Please don't lump Prometheus in with that crap.

Honestly:

The Good:
Alien: Director's Cut
Aliens: Extended Cut
Aliens: Theatrical Release
Alien: Theatrical Release
Prometheus: Theatrical Release
Alien-3: Assembly Cut

The Bad:
Alien-3: Theatrical Release
Alien-Resurrection: Director's Cut
Alien-Resurrection: Theatrical Release

The Ugly:
AVP
AVP-R

(Sorry if a little off-topic.)

Anyway, if first-person must be the route a mix of game mechanics from Metro: Last Light and Amnesia would be welcome, with AVP2's non-linearity.

Yes please.

I'm crossing my fingers for a good survival horror Alien game but so far the well has been poisoned for almost a decade

Very bad...
Predators
AvP
AvP Requiem
Colonial Marines

Underwhelming... 
Prometheus
AvP 2010
2009 triple comics
Aliens Resurrection

I thought Alien 3 and Predator 2 were alright

My favourite franchise is on the verge of quality bankruptcy and I've had to deal with disappointment after disappointment starting with AvP all the way back in 2004. It's the most frustrating feeling in the world to watch this shit being churned out and to actually be relieved when a new movie or game or whatever is just mediocre as opposed to being complete garbage

I understand where you're coming from magic. I feel very similar in my feelings towards the new material that has been less than average. I've recently played some AvP2010 on my Xbox and found it to be somewhat fun, yet somewhat needy. I feel like these games are barely tested by anyone outside their own development studios, if they even are. It's like "this is what we came up with, like it or not, give us your money fan-boys/girls."

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this title but I'm also keeping my standards/expectations low. I want to expect crap and be pleasantly surprised to astounded.
