Aliens: Colonial Marines Teaser Trailer and Release Date

Ugh, and the (lack of) animation when they run sideways. Aliens are supposed to slither around more while moving, not really gallop. There's a reason why they're often called serpents.
 
Im really excited for this game!

Even being a 20th post for a competition, I have to agree with you. Only a few more days to go seeing as BTGames shifted my pre-order release date from the 15th to the 12th (as international). Well excited, just not 100% sure yet of what I'm going to feel about the multiplayer though.
 

Jesus that trailer sucked. Even the game's lead writer distanced himself from it.

Either way, I'm still hopefully optimistic about this game. Can't wait for the 12th. I just hope GetGamesGo sends me the key early so I can preload.
 
I'll wait and see what the general consensus is (from all you guys I mean) - so far, I'm not at all convinced.
 
Ah lucky. Only picking mine up next week Friday, no spoilers :P

A game based on existing media has three options. It can strive to be faithful to the original work, privileging authenticity above all else. It can try to do its own thing, using the original work as merely a jumping off point for something else. Or, it can try to find a balance between authenticity and originality. Aliens: Colonial Marines fails spectacularly at all three of these possible approaches.
