Soooo want this...if it would live up to the awesomeness in my head.

Recommend against pre-purchase as it's an "Aliens" game, which have been historically bad. But it's being made by Gearbox, and has 4 player co-op drop in drop out, and big customization. Looks like maybe borderlands but with even more awesome atmosphere. I hope.

It's also "Aliens".
Sometimes I bet $5 or $10 on a random event, with 50% or less odds to win.
I don't bet $50 or $60.

Also: no one else is pre-ordering, so you won't miss dick by starting a few days late with the rest of us. Only thing you dont get is immediate unlock of some gun you'll unlock later on anyway.

Just bought this. Like Teaks said, it's a $50 bet, but it's Gearbox + Aliens, so my odds are good.

Wish I'd seen that before. Doubt Steam will get to my refund ticket before the game launches, at which point it'll probably be too late.

Initial reviews range from mediocre to bad.

I read those reviews too. I cancelled my preorder yesterday - I'll rebuy if PC reviews come out positive.

Multiplayer holds a glimmer of hope, and could provide a temporary distraction for folks who pick up the game. Players control colonial marines or xenomorphs in a variety of matches, ranging from standard team deathmatch to a territories-like mode, and a tense battle to simply stay alive before time runs out or your squad is dead. The problems that plague the single-player campaign persist in multiplayer, however, so be prepared to see dopey alien animations. Players who select the xenos can expect to see screen-obscuring wagging tails and doorways that have to be entered at precise angles. Overall, I had the most fun with the multiplayer, but even that couldn’t salvage Colonial Marines.

Poor Gearbox. You fucked the pooch in the ass on this one.

Maybe Company of Heroes 2 will earn my respect...

I read something about how Gearbox wasn't actually the developer on this one - apparently they subbed it out to some shitty third party.
