I wish that randy pitchford could watch this again now and tell us again how amazing this game was. Seriously, this game broke my heart. This movie/series has been dear to me since I was 10.
Mine too. When I got this game I wanted to like it so bad, but I just couldn't. It was exactly the type of game I had been waiting years for, but it was shit. Probably the biggest gaming disappointment I've personally ever had.
Not gonna lie, I like watching this video as if it's just a movie and a prequel to Alien 3. Yes I know the animations could've been better, but I think this is a good follow-up to Aliens, better than the start of Alien 3. :/
Zeithri Entirely subjective? Not really, the game is canon. I get what you're saying, though. I just think that alien 3 took the point of Alien's ending and shit on it. That's why everyone's pissed. That and the fact that alien 3 was tampered with during production.
+dawson cole well.. Yes it was. i still have it on my PC cos it makes sometimes fun to play as Alien omfg.. Just give us a Rework and longer Kampagne/Multiplayer from AvP and not a crap like this here xD Is it rly so ahrd to make a good Vdieo game today? : /
Believe me, as a dedicated fan of Aliens since childhood, I do too. But with the way this turned out, I'm still willing to fall back on that belief that the series should have, and for all intents and purposes, did end after the second movie.
yep 40 megaton explosion, the colony was meters away from the processor which blew up the entire facility. Hadley's Hope took heavy damage due to it being caught in the blast radius so everything is fucked up and you get to see the aftermath.
I understand you sentiment, as I too, was startled by Newt dying, but it served to highlight the overbearing brutality and viciousness prevalent in the Alien Franchise. Alien 3 was very emotional because Newt and Ripley died, but I was impressed at the decision and especially how it was handled in Alien 3. I am a huge Ripley/Sigourney Weaver fan, so it was very emotionally resonant.
LMFAO!! Fuck Alien 3, they basically scrapped the original script and somehow a phantom egg was put inside of their ship. Where in the hell? And don't tell me it came from the queen because that encounter lasted what 2 minutes? XD Nah fam, that storyline was so fucked and it was a huge middle finger to the original two. I will give them the idea for using a dog alien/super facehugger being a smart move. Besides that though? Nope.
i remember the day when i preorderd it on steam because i was waiting for its release for about 1-2 years earlier :( huge dissapointement, will never buy gearbox games again :( i never felt so betrayed in my life
***** Apparently it's because they contracted it all out to different studios.... but they knew what they were releasing and did it anyway, so yeah, fuck them.
I read the comics that came out in the late 80s that were about the further adventures of newt and hicks. Now that hicks is alive maybe they'll start a new comic series
Rember that sence when Cruz told winter to get out of the ship That reminds me of battle field 4 When you crash that car into the ocean and that guy tells you to get out of the car
They wrote ten different drafts of the script for alien 3. I read the one that features Ripley, Hicks, Newt, and Bishop making back to Earth where they have to fight off the aliens in a space station. It was going to be a two part story. They should have gone with that script. Alien 3 ruined the franchise. But I do like how the game makes it that Hicks is alive.
YEAH. Christ, I would've been stoked if I found out Hudson survived, in fact I started thinking it when I started playing the game. I thought "You know, I didn't exactly see a body..."
This game is so unintentionally hilarious. Bad graphics, bad story and bad development. Had been fanatically waiting for its release but this one turned out to be a real bummer.
I know it's the same voice actor Travis Willingham but at 28:03, 28:08 all I literally hear is Zavok from Sonic Lost World, even though I got used to the swearing already.
I gave this game a real chance, I was so excited to play against the Xenomorph, only one took out so many people and... One Xeno in this game couldn't kill a turnip.
I got the pre-order with the SHARP Stick. My friend also purchased a regular version. We co-oped together for the campaign. I was so full of excitement. Aliens is one of my favorite franchises. I enjoyed the Easter Eggs. The hints at the original movie. A lot of the graphics and set designs were cool. There were quite a few scares and tense moments. As the story progressed, however, my level of anger steadily rose. The story was becoming predictable. There was glitch after glitch. The AI was a bigger enemy than the bugs or the Xenos. The ending I knew was coming. The writing over all was just terrible. It made no sense. I could write a better story than this. When it was all over, I sat there in silent rage. Wasted that money for this garbage?! I felt lied to. This game was nothing like the demo. Apparently many agreed with me because at least two lawsuits were taken out against SEGA for false advertisement. Even Michael Biehn (Hicks) didn't like the game. It nearly killed my love for Aliens. When Alien Isolation came out, I was cautiously optomistic. It turned out to be a great leap forward! That's why when Aliens Fireteam came and I jumped for it. Fireteam was better, but still had/has many problems both with the story and technical issues. It was still much better than Colonial Marines, and I continue to play Fireteam today. I wasted $60 on Colonial Marines, a game I played for 32 total hours. What a rip off!
Fireteam is pretty fun! Pulse Rifle could be a bit stronger like it is in Colonial Marines and in the movies but aside from that I think it's a solid game :)
So the ship made it to fury 161 and back to lv426 in 17weeks, we dunno what happened there, other than chewbacca hit the fucken hyperdrive big time. Plus Hadley's hope is in surprisingly good shape after a 40 megaton blast, which seemingly did negligible damage. Not to mention the other plot holes so big you could sail an aircraft carrier through them. My 3 year old comes up with more convincing tales playing with his lego.
It would have made sense if it was Hudson who was prisoner. I could honestly hear his first line when they remove that bag from his head; "So... you guys took the same express elevator?"
thanks for sharing the cut scenes saved me having to play it :P. So many dumb story elements in it >.> Hicks DIED!!! in A3. They don't even bother to explain who,how or why they put some other dude in his cryo tube ........ oh well I was able to put the money I was going to spend on ACM collectors edition (thank god i held off because I got burned on duke nukem forever....) to buy the Alien Queen and victim Movie manics by Mcfarlane toys looks awesome ;)
It’s because the Xenomorphs are meant to be the ultimate enemy like if you survived you were possibly untouchable as you went toe to toe with a living embodiment of hell. But this game made them feel like just standard fps fodder
Nah, even he hates it, he hated it from the very begging, which is why he abandoned to work on borderlands, why the game turned out to be shit, Michael Biehn(Hicks) admitted himself that nobody showed any passion for the game around him when they were working on it
I may have to try and get it on sale then. I've put up with alot of buggy games over the years. I'd rather try one that's better than expected, than one that's overhyped yet garbage. Steam has a sale going on now so.....
I want them to go in-depth more with Wayland Wayland Industries and Weyland-Yutani on a business end I have the corporate timeline and everything but he would be amazing to figure out like what this guy did and how he was able to do all these patents it was one of those stories that made me want to start my own business I would love to emulate what he did
Remember E3 guys, I was so excited for this game I got it on day 1 and when I installed this on my Xbox 360 and we’ll……let’s say I was stabbed in the back. It was not what we saw when they showed us the gameplay.
When the queen alien is pushed out of the hole in the ship why does it fall? It should carry on floating horizontally. They really took care and payed extreme attention to detail. The story and setting had potential and could have been great. Revisiting Hadleys Hope was awesome but, ultimately they done fucked up!
U see hudson half way thru the game stuck on the wall - he got chest bursted . Burke isn't seen or mentioned . On the blu ray extras there's a grainy deleted scene showing ripely handing Burke a grenade to kill himself . It's on CZcams .
It matured in her for too long, besides, Alien: Resurrection takes place 200 years after Alien 3, and that wasn't the real Ripley, it was a clone with Xeno DNA, she could likely survive the retrieval, Bella, on the other hand, is just a normal human with no enhanced Xeno DNA.
Wait as soon as a newborn alien comes out of it's host, does it just grow to a regular alien? How long does it take to grow? It's pretty exposed as a newborn.
"So who's body was in your cryo pod?"
"That's a longer story."
Translation: The writing team didn't know how to fill that plot hole.
it's called the DLC
I wish that randy pitchford could watch this again now and tell us again how amazing this game was.
Seriously, this game broke my heart. This movie/series has been dear to me since I was 10.
James From it as a great concept. just poorly made. In fact they need to bring more colonial marine content back. But remake every thing.
Mine too. When I got this game I wanted to like it so bad, but I just couldn't. It was exactly the type of game I had been waiting years for, but it was shit. Probably the biggest gaming disappointment I've personally ever had.
5 years later and I'm still salty. %#$! Gearbox.
30 mins of cinematics from this are still better than watching alien 3
Go watch the directors cut. Over half the movie is unused footage that completely changes the story and character development.
Plummet How is this shit even remotely better than Alien 3? Hell even Alien Resurrection wasn't as bad as this...
"I just shot your God".
BASED HICKS
bella's chestburster was a queen chestburster
I had such high hopes for this game.
Not gonna lie, I like watching this video as if it's just a movie and a prequel to Alien 3. Yes I know the animations could've been better, but I think this is a good follow-up to Aliens, better than the start of Alien 3. :/

thatisatastyburger
I refuse to call this piece of shit canon - _and I am not alone about that_.
Zeithri Good for you.
Does anyone else think Aliens vs Predator (2010) was better than this?
Yes.
ye
Yes
+dawson cole well.. Yes it was. i still have it on my PC cos it makes sometimes fun to play as Alien omfg.. Just give us a Rework and longer Kampagne/Multiplayer from AvP and not a crap like this here xD Is it rly so ahrd to make a good Vdieo game today? : /
I think the real ? is can thy make @ good video game, that's based off an iconic movie?
Still better Lovestory than Twilight.
agreed!
Oh hell yes!!!
Frank Heinz yup
Frank Heinz Hell yeah
Everything's a better love story than Twilight.
Believe me, as a dedicated fan of Aliens since childhood, I do too. But with the way this turned out, I'm still willing to fall back on that belief that the series should have, and for all intents and purposes, did end after the second movie.
Agreed 💯👍 at the very least Aliens account of the Earth war comic series is the legitimate canon after Aliens
Did they not blow up the colony at the end of Aliens?
yep 40 megaton explosion, the colony was meters away from the processor which blew up the entire facility. Hadley's Hope took heavy damage due to it being caught in the blast radius so everything is fucked up and you get to see the aftermath.
Adios Muchachos.
Yes they did 💯💥
4:11 Anonymous Mohawk Man GET OUT OF THERE!

I actually loved this game gives a twist to the Aliens storyline, gameolay couldve been better but this was a good game
"Oh my god"
"I just shot your god"
Well, they fucked this game up, but at least they got Hicks right!
You mean to tell me that Winter brakes out of it no problem? Yet Hudson couldn't? I call bullshit.
Agreed.
thanks, that helped a lot.
They should make an Aliens movie like this.
This is a good game, I had great fun playing this with my friend...
i remember the day when i preorderd it on steam because i was waiting for its release for about 1-2 years earlier :( huge dissapointement, will never buy gearbox games again :( i never felt so betrayed in my life
I feel your pain bro. I pre ordered as soon as it was available to do so. What a let down.
***** Apparently it's because they contracted it all out to different studios.... but they knew what they were releasing and did it anyway, so yeah, fuck them.
Missed out on borderlands then
@@jacobgarvey11 borderlands is shit
Masterpiece ever. Greatness
I read the comics that came out in the late 80s that were about the further adventures of newt and hicks. Now that hicks is alive maybe they'll start a new comic series
Love that series 👍💯
Rember that sence when Cruz told winter to get out of the ship
That reminds me of battle field 4
When you crash that car into the ocean and that guy tells you to get out of the car
the things this game could have been. they need to make another colonial marines but the AI and the fear present in alien isolation
Only 1 thing I like about this game is they made Xenos third person
AVP (2010), Alien: Colonial Marines and Alien Isolation..... the best one for me was AVP (2010).
You should play AvP 2 (2001), widely regarded by fans as the best of the AvP games.
0:38......"Space......The Final Frontier".
These are the Voyages of the starship enterprise...
They wrote ten different drafts of the script for alien 3.

Omg top notch graphixxx
YEAH. Christ, I would've been stoked if I found out Hudson survived, in fact I started thinking it when I started playing the game. I thought "You know, I didn't exactly see a body..."
This game is so unintentionally hilarious. Bad graphics, bad story and bad development. Had been fanatically waiting for its release but this one turned out to be a real bummer.
at 9:00 why did the alien have half his face melted?
Are we going to ignore 00:12 where Michael Biehn pauses in between words?
Nella versione Italiana il doppiaggio di Bishop ha la stessa voce robotica dei film.... GODOOOOOOOOO
Borderlands was awesome.This...I have no words about it....
this is how alien 3 should have been!
yes this is my first pc fps game I ever owned. Ashamed? Yes. But not the first fps I ever played
I know it's the same voice actor Travis Willingham but at 28:03, 28:08 all I literally hear is Zavok from Sonic Lost World, even though I got used to the swearing already.
Dat graphics,sounds & animation
My favorite game!#!♡♡♡♡♡°360☆☆☆☆☆ stay frosty my FRIENDS!#!
I gave this game a real chance, I was so excited to play against the Xenomorph, only one took out so many people and... One Xeno in this game couldn't kill a turnip.

O'Neal = Gabe Cunnigham?! Very cool!
This game was alright. not the best. i had fun with it
Finally someone who thinks this games ok. Honestly i didnt see anything bad but the ending and the ai
Oh and the glitches
@@dcp0923 Story pissed me off. Ai did too. And i hated oneal and bella the whole way through. "Boss" fight sucked.
The graphics could have been better BUT I loved it anyways
IMHO this game was hilariously stupid to play Solo but Co-op made it alright
So the ship made it to fury 161 and back to lv426 in 17weeks, we dunno what happened there, other than chewbacca hit the fucken hyperdrive big time. Plus Hadley's hope is in surprisingly good shape after a 40 megaton blast, which seemingly did negligible damage. Not to mention the other plot holes so big you could sail an aircraft carrier through them. My 3 year old comes up with more convincing tales playing with his lego.
I like the cut sense
I miss this game
I think the cutscenes in AvP (2010) were better. Yet this game came out 3 years later.
It would have made sense if it was Hudson who was prisoner. I could honestly hear his first line when they remove that bag from his head;
"So... you guys took the same express elevator?"
We’re on an express elevator to hell! Going down
thanks for sharing the cut scenes saved me having to play it :P. So many dumb story elements in it >.> Hicks DIED!!! in A3. They don't even bother to explain who,how or why they put some other dude in his cryo tube ........
oh well I was able to put the money I was going to spend on ACM collectors edition (thank god i held off because I got burned on duke nukem forever....) to buy the Alien Queen and victim Movie manics by Mcfarlane toys looks awesome ;)
Wish this game would get remade. It’s a fun game to play.
5:42 I mean what can you say when you know you and your entire crew is going to die even while staring death he remains calm for his crew
Haha that moonwalk in the beginning though XD
4:04 T-Formation gotta love it
Travis Willingham is awesome
Ripley died at the ending than cloned so technically nobody survived
Hell yes!
Idk why everybody hates this game its amazing i loved this game got Good memories from it
It’s because the Xenomorphs are meant to be the ultimate enemy like if you survived you were possibly untouchable as you went toe to toe with a living embodiment of hell. But this game made them feel like just standard fps fodder
Anyone know whats that song which is played when keyes dies.
At 23:56, the ship taking off look's like the Pillar of Autumn taking off in Halo Re
ach.
Am I the only person who likes this game?
Definitely not the only one, Randy Pitchford really likes this game if I'm not mistaken
Nah, even he hates it, he hated it from the very begging, which is why he abandoned to work on borderlands, why the game turned out to be shit, Michael Biehn(Hicks) admitted himself that nobody showed any passion for the game around him when they were working on it
I like some how don't judge me.
+Edward Alewelt And many of my friends like it.🤔
I may have to try and get it on sale then. I've put up with alot of buggy games over the years. I'd rather try one that's better than expected, than one that's overhyped yet garbage. Steam has a sale going on now so.....
OOOUCH that definitely says something.
Anybody come back to these after hearing about the coding that had a typo lol
I want them to go in-depth more with Wayland Wayland Industries and Weyland-Yutani on a business end I have the corporate timeline and everything but he would be amazing to figure out like what this guy did and how he was able to do all these patents it was one of those stories that made me want to start my own business I would love to emulate what he did

10/10 would forget about the game again
this game has halo 3 graphics. ah the good old days
Look at those PS2 graphics- err, I mean PS3 graphics though. Game is absolutely terrible and I'm still waiting for a new AvP game since 2010.
He did. During the crash on the prison planet of Furina 161, Newt, Hicks, and Bishop were all killed.
U see hudson half way thru the game stuck on the wall - he got chest bursted . Burke isn't seen or mentioned . On the blu ray extras there's a grainy deleted scene showing ripely handing Burke a grenade to kill himself . It's on CZcams .
That glitch I died laughing
2:43 he was done thinking before the game started
okay in this game they cant remove the embryo but how did they remove the one in ripley?
It matured in her for too long, besides, Alien: Resurrection takes place 200 years after Alien 3, and that wasn't the real Ripley, it was a clone with Xeno DNA, she could likely survive the retrieval, Bella, on the other hand, is just a normal human with no enhanced Xeno DNA.
That's unfortunate for you bc the multiplayer on this game is amazing.
"WE DON'T LEAVE MARINES BEHIND!"
"OORAH TO ASHES!"
Please...Winter, say something funny to make me forget.
8:09 Gameplay scenes added.
I've never played this game I only watch the queen videos XD
Lol that v-sync tho lol
O'Neal is a damn drama queen.
Agreed, 1,000,000%
“DONT SAY HER FUCKING NAME!”
*“Bella”*
Is this taken from the XBox 360 version?
Am I the only person who dies 1000 times
Michael Biehn came back.
Yeah, and chestbursters bursting through armor ? How ?
AWESOME GAME 😆
I was playing with my girlfriend
I played this before and I was freak out from the xenomorph.
Play Alien: Isolation. This game will pale in comparison to the horror that is the Xenomorph.
@@LordofMovies91 Whoa man, I hate Alien: Isolation.
"liquid" situation? I believe it is called a "fluid" situation or am I wrong?
AM I THE ONLY PERSON IN THE WORLD WHO FINDS THIS GAME AT LEAST GOOD
I have no problem with it
+dcp0923 if you saw what this game could have been you would understand.
dcp0923 I find this game good.
One thing I wanna know is if xeno queen can survive space can it survive falling from heights?
Reid looks like Dana Mercer from Prototype 2.
Whelp... this game has singlehandedly worn out the welcome of Oorah.
Wait as soon as a newborn alien comes out of it's host, does it just grow to a regular alien? How long does it take to grow? It's pretty exposed as a newborn.
first and last game i buy from gearbox too
great ai
if this game was free or 10 dollars at most I wouldn't be pissed about how bad it was
