If Alien fans want a good recent Aliens game, they should buy a 3DS since it's backwards compatible.  Well.  I've heard it was good, and I'd believe it only because it looks to play like Alien 3 for SNES and that was good.


I have the game and im telling you its good.

As long as it's not on a Nintendo console, maybe.


how does a Nintendo consoel relate to the qulity of a game lol.

 

ON TOPIC: I will be cautious as CM was a let down. PS: i think this topic already happened a few weeks back or at least it become a side track in another thread lol.

The Nintendo DS had developers who pushed 3D graphical quality, but to keep the graphics looking good, not jaggy looking characters and textures, the image would be zoomed in to the point that it almost ruined many games.  The same on some 3DS games too.

Here's just one example.  FF4 DS is zoomed in so much during 95% of the game that it's an annoyance to use the top screen to see where you're going.  The bottom screen options are a mess too, but that's the developers fault. 

Now the whole, we want better graphics so everything is zoomed in to the max is a developer choice, but given how weak the hardware is and the developer might want something looking better, it does fall on Nintendo for having weaker hardware.

You asked the question, I thought I'd just offer my opinion.  The DS has a ton of great games, but it can't be denied that there are some games that would be better if the hardware was better.

I'll eventually play it.  I own it, just haven't played it.  Good to know there's yet another person who states it's good though.  I don't feel like I wasted my money now.



It will most likely suck donkey balls.



Trailer looked awesome. We've been here before with Alien games and they've turned out pretty awful, but the survival horror approach is definitely the way to go when handling this franchise. I like that they finally decided to take inspiration from the first movie, not the second.

Cautiously optimistic, I really want this one to be good! If not, we've still got SOMA coming for our sci-fi horror fix.

Agreed on Alien 3 - loved that game.



I'm cautiously optimistic about this game! The survivor horror element seems prettty kick ass and is something that should have been done before; it's been too much focus on the action.



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

The British, of course



Considering the fact that I had really high hopes for Colonial Marines, thought it could be amazing, and then it was rushed out and sucked so bad (because Gearbox sucks at life and can't even be bothered to develop their own games), that they cancelled to allegedly "great" Wii U version. Considering that it was delayed so much because Gearbox sucks at life. I would have probably bought it for PS3 if it had released before Wii U came out. And I really wanted it for Wii U. But they totally screwed the pooch and released an unfinished, unpolished, aborted mess by all accounts.

So no. I don't have any hope.



Its creative assembly. Its based on the 1st film and not the sequels (suspense/horror over action/gore).Its amnesia in space. Hold your horses fellas.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

    Can't be any worse than Colonial Marines.. Aliens AI in that game ( if you can even call it a game) doesn't exist... Aliens  act like someone who got high up their ass and  decided to do dumb shit..

to be fair Gearbox has nothing to do with this
