Got some good hopes for this, now that Rebellion aren't involved.

Don't let us down!

Oh please..."leaked". The marketing tactics continue to amuse.

Nevertheless I am looking forward to this one, as long as they don't totally fk up the PC version. The trailers on Youtube looked pretty good.

"Three exclusive multiplayer weapons: M240 Flamethrower, M577 A2 Smart Gun, M41A Pulse Rifle upgrade"

Forgive me for my terrible memory, but arent these guns the entire armoury of the film? What will 'normal' customers be using? Harsh language?

Nice, the trend for CE exclusive content continues. That makes it a no buy for me.

And there they go again selling an incomplete game to those who don't pre-order. Another addition to my 'To buy much, much later as GOTY/Complete edition'-list.

Exclusive Multiplayer weapons?

I can't say I'm a fan of that.

Know I shouldn't, but so damn want this.

Unless that's one of these new fangled "irradiated" aliens I've heard talk about? Looks a little chunky to be a classic Xenomorph to me...

They should have focused on making a good game instead of including so many goodies.

Nice - an entire mode.

So tired of this. Then again the mode itself probably isn't up to much.

I really hope they can organise some retailer exclusives too. That would make my decision whether to purchase their game even easier!

We've got phase-plasma pulse rifles, rpgs, we've got sonic electronic ball breakers (woo!) We've got nukes, we got knives, sharp sticks...

Exclusive to Game when you preorder now.

Special Edition looks good. Let's hope it isn't ludicrously expensive like many of them have been lately.

The exclusive mode sounds like the tutorial lol.

I like the look of that model. I'll consider this if it's at a reasonable price.

I so want this to be great, but it probably won't be. The premise is simple - shooting monsters in the face, but its got to be different pleeeease.... I predict a 7.

Hope this is good but as others have said, it's basically shooting "bad guys" in corridors. At least the AVP games were able to mix it up with the three different play styles of the different species. Also worried about those weapons. Seems one is just an upgrade to the pulse rifle as opposed to the gun itself but the flame thrower and smart gun are Aliens staples. It's like a Zelda game that only gives the Master Sword as dlc. Hopefully they're just early unlocks for multiplayer ...
