As soon as he said that I already knew it was a red flag.

At least Sega redeemed themselves with Isolation.

@@absboodoo Since you never bothered to even play ACM, they patched out most of the " errors and bugs" that you all whined about. Im playing through it now and i get killed by acid blood and claw attacks. Dont just blindly bash a game until you played it.

@@MLPDethDealr32 oh I played it all the way back in 2013. At least according to my steam record that's the last time i loaded it up.

​@@absboodooto be fair to saga for a bit, gearbox basically took the money saga gave them and used it to develop borderlands 2 and their other ips, saga still at fault for not over seeing them develop the game.

@@negativeatmo What game?

@@negativeatmo I'm looking for something straight down the middle between Colonial Marines and Isolation. I was thinking something where you can shoot the aliens but they are strong enough that in some cases you do not want to and would rather find another way. Similar to the feeling you get when playing the older Resident Evil games where you do not want to kill every zombie because ammo is precious.

Exactly

@@connorbennett1517 If you play on PC checkout the TemplatGFX overhaul mod, it done a great job of fixing the game up. You can scale the AI and difficulty a fair bit and I’m playing it on easy because I’m a scaredy cat, but ammo can be scarce sometimes on that.

@@connorbennett1517 aliens vs predator 2010?

and a fraud.

I never will.

I never bought another gearbox game since.

Cruz: winter, we're picking up some typos in .ine files, seems to me that the xenos have been walking drunk because of a damn typo by randy, it may not fix the game entirely but hey, you'll be able to see what improvement were made with the xenos sulaco actual out

It was even better

@@jewfinigan863 you’re kidding right

OrgasmicGames oh how right you were

You called it!

Hi I'm from the future and you are super right

We got us a fortune teller here boys.

Damn.... man was on point

This was a demo build and it was not meant to be playable...HOWEVER somebody apparently obtained files of several unfinished builds of Aliens colonial marines and whatever was in this demo was one of the builds..

I watched this when i was a kid on TV and i was freaked out back then. This demo made you both hype and scared at the same time because of the amount of Xenos, Queen, guns, turrets and also the great teamwork with AI. Well I still enjoy ACM with its mod but i feel that they should keep the original work, instead of Aliens like-COD game.

Just letting you know you're not alone.

I remember seeing screen shots of it in an old XBOX magazine , years before this “demo” was shown and I went to my local game shop and said I want to put my name down for a copy of the new Aliens game ( pre order wasn’t even a thing back then) anyway the guys who where working at the game store hadn’t even heard of it . Luckily I had the magazine, and they told me it must still be in development.. around 4 years later this demo was shown. The screen shots I saw in this magazine may not have even been for this game .. but boy did they look awesome (...back then ) Then came Alien Isolation... the best Alien game that will ever be

We have another chance to have our Aliens dreams fulfilled boys !! Aliens Fire team trailer dropped 2 days ago , check it out if you haven’t already

Special Order_937 It is time, we can finally be marines in a great game!

I know what you mean man, it's depressing to watch. As far as I'm concerned the game was never released. But! I did hear a new Alien shooter is in the works by Cold Iron Studios. So maybe, it will be a much better game than this disappointment.

Im still upset about this even years later. This game should have been amazing, one of the biggest let downs I have ever experienced. What a shame.

The reason why the game is different from the final product is: 1. Gearbox at the time are already assigned to make two new Project (Duke Nukem Forever & Borderlands 2) 2. When 2K got furious with Duke Nukem Faliure, they demanded Gearbox to put their commitment to Borderlands 2 to "fixed the financial issue" (Despite they had BioShock in case if they aren't in a hurry). 3. SEGA who wants it to be like Call of Duty, had a big disagreement with Gearbox. So, TimeGate Studios reluctantly developed it, while Gearbox complete Borderlands, before it's port on Console is completed by 2K Marin & Australia. 4. Once Gearbox returns, they did not like what TimeGate did with the game and it's technical problem on running in console. 5. Because SEGA refused to delay it anymore, they just "Launch" the game into the final product, with Gearbox version is heavily removed, and it's technical problem got worse, which led this game to what we all known today... Conclusion: If SEGA would listen, the game could be something great! But, they wanted to step into the FPS marketing bullshit! PS: It's also 2K Games and 3D Realms fault (the latter which the studio at the time was only 18 people employed) led DNF led the game understaff. And has since, the people at 3D realms moved and carry the Duke Nukem rights to Gearbox and Epic Games (the latter acquired half of it, because the game runs on Unreal Engine 3, which was Epic proprietary software engine).

PHANTOM I hope you’re Right I really Do.

We need a Remake so bad, with all that stuff in the Trailer 😥 So horrible 😔

Bad enough that they messed up, but even worse that they knew exactly what the product should be

Never, dude, never. I waited 7 years for Aliens: Colonial Marines, when it was first announced in 2006. I was always upset to hear it was pushed back, or even canceled, then Gearbox gave me hope when they reignited the hype via this E3 2011 demo and then stated the release date, 7 years of waiting only to be massively let down. Unbelievable

Main problem was the AI was broken with a bug and was too slow to come at you. Also too many sections the aliens were linear and prediable instead of coming from all different places like vents and wall, they just come from 1 or 2 places without variation. It just didn't feel punishing enough for horror

hahaha no offence.

God Fury That got dark real fast

Idk, Cyberpunk 2077 is right up there with it. I waited 7 years for Aliens: Colonial Marines and I waited 5 years for Cyberpunk 2077. I'd say the biggest betrayals ever were Aliens: Colonial Marines, Destiny (it wasn't bad or terrible, just average and not what was promised), No Man's Sky, and Cyberpunk 2077 in that order. Btw, I get that you typed this comment 6+ years ago, but still, figured I'd provide an update.

No it’s implied that the Xenomorphs opened it with their bare hands

yea this games characters were annoying af, if they actually had this demo in the actual game as a mission, it would've been amazing

welll sorta this level is in "no hope in hadleys" same map in the place where you hold out after saving the marines. but still no where near what is in this trailer clearly. my guess is this was done on a pc for the demo trailer and they couldn't get this level of graphics and polish to work on the xbox 360 and ps3 so downgraded the game for it.

So...how did that turn out?

@@connorbennett1517 LMAO!!!

@@connorbennett1517 Bruh I don't wanna talk about it LMAO actually FeelsBadMan at that time

all the time went to borderlands dlc

Nope. Only ended up with 65 or so.

It was never in the game. Gearbox the developer screwed you and all of us over.

@@AustinGriffinAGENTERTAINMENT I think he pranking haha

@@snap_drama346 lol it's been a year since I typed the comment you just replied to. And I'm still salty about the game

@@AustinGriffinAGENTERTAINMENT I'm just letting u know I'm still alive

i mean you could install tmplargfx

@@encryptonize3098 not the same

Lmao if only you knew

Randy Pitchford used the toilet after digestive issues, dropped this video down the toilet, flushed and blocked the toilet, then used whatever backed up and sprayed the room to make the actual game.

Damn, yeah, this comment really didn't age well XD

jva1032 oh how wrong you were

Marco Soares lol at the ignorant enthusiasm. So sad.

And this ended up being worse than Duke. Seriously, fuck Gearbox.
