Survivor Edition sounds nice
Hunter edition for me, I want that Facehugger! :D
is there any news about the price and a NA edition
cool
Yes finally a worthy Collector's Edition. Going for the Hunter Edition for sure
Does the US get the collector's editions?
No Facehugger/chestburster levels? :(
No Facehugger/chestburster levels that f**king sucks
Hunter it is...
"a code for downloadable multiplayer maps, which will be available post-launch." So all who buy the standard edition are f%@*ed?
Chris .. Alien games are priceless! 8)
Survivor Edition for me! ;D
ops i meant hunter one ::)
Oh wow, my favorite parts of that preview..."During the tutorial you're taught how to use your massive tail to knock out the overhead lights" (WOOT best part of AvP 1 was knocking out the lights! lol) "you can create a distraction by mimicking a human voice, calling one soldier away from the other" (that's just awesome and much overdo)...and of course "Expect to see the game released on February 16"
Wow! Epic. I want that Hunter Edition. :D Will they be releasing these editions (or anything like 'em) in the US? No specific launch date for the US yet, either, huh? I'm chomping at the bit here. Need info! *drools* ;)
My bad. Didn't know Gamespot mentions a February 16th US release date in their preview. lol Now... what about those editions! ;D
I hope for special editions in the U.S..they're is still avp fans in the u.s also...
I`m gonna go for Survivor XD. Woot february is gonna rock.
Can you also buy Survivor or Hunter edition in store? Or is it only available at pre-ordering?
!!!!!WOW HUNTER EDITION!!!!! LOOKS FRICKIN AWESOME ;D
Looks great! Hopefully It comes to North America. Too bad they're not as rich as like Infinity Ward or something, then maybe they would package a motion tracker like Modern Warfare 2 packaged NV Goggles, lol. Also like somebody else said... if the normal edition doesnt get extra maps, will multiplayer be chaos?
Hunter edition is AWESOME! I want it! ;D >:D :o
I don't really like the hunter edition much, survivor is good. Well, the only reason why I don't like the hunter is that i have to import it, because I live in Australia... :(
IF THIS SHIT DOES NOT COME OUT IN THE USA IAM GOING TO BE PISS OFF...I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS GAME SINCE 1998...DAM TIME TO DO SOME DIGGING AROUND HERE...BE BACK SOON...SMART GUNNERS UNITE...
One the one hand, great coz it looks amazing, on the other, wtf is with it flaunting it around when here in oz we wont get it huh? :'(
webhallen
Sehr sch
It looks as if I'll avoid getting the survivor edition, damn facehugger in the box will creep me out. Good deals, however.
Thats pretty brutal that they are releasing a standard addition that will not contain the mutiplayer levels that the other editions have. Because this usually fragments gameplay, most hardcores are likely goin to buy the editions with the extra mutliplayer levels, god knows i will likely do so. But there will probably be a fairly large majority who will not and thus this retail gimic will fragment the gamers who play this game to a certain degree.
im for sure gonna get the hunter pack, kinda bumbed out though, you dont get to start out as a face hugger, is that some kind of joke? i can only hope that it is indeed a joke!
Nice a Wayland badge, cause everyone wants to be known for working for the people who are responsible for killing Ripley's crew lol but seriously I want the survivor edition
Is that hunter pack only for 360?!! i was intended to get the pc version but that would suck if its just 360 :(
Yeah, ditto on the call for PC versions. I'm going to get a DirectX11 card for this game. I want my facehugger to sit on my monitor while I eat people's faces!
"a code for downloadable multiplayer maps, which will be available post-launch." So all who buy the standard edition are f%@*ed?" And people who have the multiplayer maps will have less people to play with.
Im not rlly into the spending 120 euros or so just to get a face hugger, Survivor edition for me i geuss.
I am so going after this Hunter Pack! How much is it in US dollars
I reckon it will be released here in oz, just with some alterations because we usually get censored versions of good games anyways.
anyone have an idea on price for Hunter Edition?
I'm getting hunters now, after a mention of a graphic novel. Even though I live in Australia, i'm importing the Hunters.
AVPR Facehugger ftl.
Oo nice the pc version of the hunter box ;D ;D
anyone have an idea on price for Hunter Edition? $1(us) = 7 SEK
VERY COOL
im going to wait before i get a new card i don't trust that directx 11 will be better. seeing as dx10 was prettymuch just bs to sell vista.
I recommend buying a fast GPU instead of paying the extra premium "Hunter" edition....
DO u think i could import hunter edition to australia?
Is the Hunter edition ony for PC? Any news on special editions for PS3?
It's for PS3, Xbox360, PC
My bet is that the game will cost about £55 - £60 here in the UK for the Hunter edition. Anything more than £60 for it and I'll just buy survivor edition as I'm only after the maps and the facehugger!
I just realized you can't import it to the USA since the region codes of the DVDs to DL the game! :'(
Will the packages be on the 360 too??
How much will the Hunter edition cost? And it better be on xbox 360 too.
Hunter Edition looks mint, can't wait for this game! Ive spent 5 years waiting for this game and I wil spend the penultimate day for its release watching all the alien/predator/AVP films!
So North America just recieves normal editions for PS3, 360, and PC?
Nice 2 bad I already pre-ordered it on Xbox 360 and that im buying it on STEAM
Now... The problem is now to decide as to which i should buy? All of them seem woth buying. :-\
survivor and hunter the two versions c'ming in steel case? ??????? i want the steel case
Every single platform gets the editions, and it says above that they have the Survivor's and Hunter's edition in both Europe and North America.
finally a game worth playing, my CoD:MW2 was a failure and ive just been letting my ps3 collect dust.
how do we get the hunter edition if we've already preordered the game?
Hunter edition looks awesome! But it won't be cheap, that's for sure...
I can't ... wait... any... LONGER! :D I hope there is versus mode included!!!! DAMN that would be awesome.
so uh, wait this is only in europe? will it also be in the US at some point?
To all Aussies!!! IGN has posted an article about how the classification board has now opened a discussion board relating to an R18+ classification for Australia, you can read about the for and against and either support or not support. Everyone must do this so we can enjoy R rated games too!!!
Yeah mate i cited 10 different sources as to why we need the rating and sent it to the email addy provided so hope we get the support we need for it. And remember: if you dont vote for it, youre going to hell when you die.
Link?
http://au.games.ign.com/articles/105/1054816p1.html is the link for the paper and believe me, theres more evidence for it than against it.
guys on channel 7 "sunrise" ran a story about the R18+ rating, possibly for the new ban to AvP. Finally it is getting national attention!! ;D
So what do we actually have to do? Write a report to why there should be a R18+ rating and send it off?
yes exactly, just support it and send it to them, power to the people
;D
plz sum1 tell me where 2 pre order from i want hunter =)
You can't preorder it yet because they haven't revealed the prices.
Seem its not banned anymore do you think these will be available in australia?
YEAH! these are available in Australia! ill definitely be getting hunter edition.
Im getting hunters! ;D
;D Cant wait! Looks frigging awesome.
Has any shops got the special editions for pre-order yet like game, play etc?
