http://store.steampowered.com/app/49540/ 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. |

http://www.gameinformer.com/games/alien ... eview.aspx Quote: 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. |
