    You meaning DNF, or this, im assuming DNF, as this has great visual by the looks of it.

    Being ported to consoles rather than the other way is no guarantee of good graphics, it just means that its the priority platform, and you have to remember that 90% of PC exclusives have pretty poor visuals, since they have to cater to lower spec PC's.

    DNF looks awesome, I don't know what you're on about. But that's not the point of the thread. Aliens looks fantastic too. I'm excited to hear about all the co-op features that they are going to put in it. That's going to be my main selling point, methinks. I love playing those kind of games with my buddies.

    Yeah, this looks like Survival mode from AVP, but more in depth, which is good.

    Actually its exactly like L4D just with USCM vs Aliens. Aliens can pin down players so ppl need to stay together and rescue each other, like the boss zombies in L4D do. This could be a lot better than AvP thats for sure.

    True, only time will tell, though. Using the UT3 Engine, so I'm expecting kinda small levels, honestly.

    Wouldn't trust it.
    Firstly Randy said A:CM definitely wouldn't be out this year. They may start releasing information once DNF is out the door... but no Aliens this year.

    Also, that document has Batman: Arkham City's release date wrong. Listing it for September 18th, when the game is set for October 18th.
    Maybe E3 or even the Gearbox Community Day will bring some new light to Aliens. As I will be at the GBX Community thing, if anything comes up, I'll be sure to post it.

    OH man, I totally forgot about this. I hope it's good, the long-ass developed time has me worried, though.

    Four years. Isn't that long really, and since a majority of the time has been spent working on titles like Borderlands and DNF, Aliens doesn't have much actual time into it.

    The problem was, SEGA announced the game as soon as GBX signed the contract to make the game. Before they had even written one line of code for the game. So, SEGA was a little premature in announcing it.

    Six months from now they could give us a game that has a lot of bugs that aren't Xenomorphs.

    SEGA AND GEARBOX’S ALIENS: COLONIAL MARINES TO DEPLOY SPRING 2012

    Catch a First Look at E3 2011 of the Game That Pits You and Your Friends Against the Deadliest Killers in the Galaxy

    “It'll be dark soon, and they mostly come at night... mostly.” LONDON & SAN FRANCISCO (June 1st, 2011) –SEGA® Europe Ltd. and SEGA® of America, Inc. today announced that the highly-anticipated first-person shooter, Aliens: Colonial Marines™, will be launching in spring 2012 on PC, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. In partnership with Twentieth Century Fox Consumer Products and developed by critically acclaimed studio Gearbox Software, Aliens: Colonial Marines will bring new levels of bone-chilling suspense and adrenaline-filled action to the renowned franchise. The game pits players against the universe’s ultimate alien killing machines, the Xenomorphs, in claustrophobic environments guaranteed to produce blood curdling thrills that the movie is renowned for. A first look of the game is presented in the South Hall at SEGA’s booth #2023, at this week’s E3 in Los Angeles.

    “To Gearbox Software and its peers throughout the industry, ALIENS is one of the most influential science fiction properties of all time,” said Randy Pitchford, President of Gearbox Software. “Aliens: Colonial Marines, designed as an interactive successor to the landmark films from Twentieth Century Fox, is a dream project about which our studio is deeply committed and passionate.”

    “Aliens: Colonial Marines will be THE definitive ALIENS gaming experience,” said Gary Knight, Senior Vice President of Marketing at SEGA Europe and SEGA of America. “Gearbox Software are doing a brilliant job translating the thrill and horror that ALIENS stands for into an action-packed shooter experience with co-operative gameplay at its core.”

    Gary Rosenfeld, Senior Vice President of New Media for Fox Consumer Products added, “It’s no easy task to take on one of the most influential films of all-time, but SEGA and Gearbox are not going to disappoint. This game will be a must-have for fans of the ALIENS franchise and gamers around the globe.”

    Aliens: Colonial Marines begins with an ostensibly abandoned ship, the U.S.S. Sulaco, recovered in orbit around LV-426. Players lead a group of highly trained United States Colonial Marines as they board the deserted craft to uncover the fate of the crew. They will have to fight to survive unspeakable horrors and their own anxieties as they chase down the truth behind a galaxy-spanning deception that places humanity at the mercy of the most murderous and deadly species in the universe. Aliens: Colonial Marines features authentic environments, such as the surface of LV-426 and Hadley’s Hope, weapons inspired by the film series and is designed to provide an exhilarating and engaging new chapter in the Aliens universe.

    Aliens: Colonial Marines will be available spring 2012 on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC. The game is also on display in the South Hall at SEGA’s booth #2032, at this week’s Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles.

    loved AVP 2010 (especially the Predator, alien was ok, hated the marine).

    judging from the shot it looks great, lets hope the gameplay is good too, more depth is welcome. :banana:
