Apparently Aliens: Colonial Marines was awful. Glad I passed at launch. If it gets patched up, I'll pick it up a year from now on Steam with all the DLC for like $7.

Heard it was because of some nasty outsourcing work, project management failures, and Sega getting really pissed at them.

In short, what happened was that Gearbox had to pick to either focus on Aliens or Borderlands 2. They decided to pick Borderlands 2 and let some other company deal with it. Delay after delay after delay... Gearbox used it to finish Borderlands 2 before picking up the slack on Aliens and what the company left them... was a complete disaster. I hear they only had about 2 to 3 months left before launch and Sega was breathing down their necks.

I don't understand why SEGA would be such cocks about it. They've been in the game long enough to know delays happen, and that awful games don't sell **** unless they're XBox exclusives. Then again, SEGA is run by notoriously stupid people.

I believe it's a matter of Sega running out of patience and good will after yet another delay. I believe that the project was first announced in 2008... and it's been pushed back to the point that its release date was a few days ago. That's a very long time and I think it's similar to Team Bondi and LA Noire in that the publisher was now stepping in and telling them to get their act together. Originally Posted by Ash

Definitely. It's why I don't put stock on reviews anymore. You are better off watching videos of the gameplay and making a decision yourself. Originally Posted by seansloan

This. I always go to Twitch Tv and watch the opening day game play before I decide to purchase. Originally Posted by niniendowarrior

The Aliens game does look pretty shïtty and outdated. The graphics are decent but the gameplay looks very unoriginal. I'm passing on that.
