That first picture is pretty bad IMO. I find in amusing that Warhammer 40K borrowed heavily from the franchise in creating the Tyranids to now have the franchise borrow from the Tyranids (look up the Carnifex).

Can't say i agree with the author in that i'm glad its canceled even with the sketchy concepts but it makes me think a bit.

Those are not new at all and they are not bad imo. I think It expands the Aliens universe in a great way that other projects couldn't

Yeah, not new. Ikarop posted them at the end of May but nobody outside of Obsidian Forums noticed them.

As much as I love the EU - I do. I'm big for expanding and novels and etc - but that first pic is horrible. I was always skeptical about the project. It'll be nice for Sega to put their money to a genre that seems more suiting to the franchise.

Its a direct and blatant rip from 40k. It also means that Aliens are going the way of GoW and WoW were we need big muscled ogre aliens.

I just find it very uninspired.

Edit: I apologize for the mislabel as new, i must have missed them.

I can't really say I like the designs, but I still wish this game wasn't cancelled.

The tank Alien definitely needed tweaking, but I think it was a cool concept

It just wasn't made before and There's nothing write against that possibility.

Imo this game was for open minded stans not fanatics.

The first Alien that was shown looks awful and I hope we will never see something like that in the movies.

That Alien in the first pic reminds of the "Rouge", from the graphic novel. It's not to bad, but I think they can a hell of a lot better.

Similar yea, i thought the rogue king was a hell of a lot more original.

Yeah the alien in the first could be better but it's a good concept.

ShadowPred · **Reply #13 on: Jul 03, 2009, 10:18:04 PM**

That giant alien, tank thng actually looks awesome, love the design of that thing, but as part of the ALIEN universe and the creature itself? Not so much.

Maybe as a genetic mutant created by the company.
