Aliens: Colonial Marines Trailer Fights the Fear with Dubstep

Post by Dan @ 12:04pm 25/01/13 | 27 Comments

SEGA and Gearbox Software have pushed out a new trailer for Aliens: Colonial Marines --their upcoming, cooperative-focused Xenomorph shooting gallery-- showing off some more space soldiers doing battle with the iconic extra-terrestrials.

Today's clip features some corny drill sergeant-style dialogue, and a rather ill-fitting dubstep backing track, but there are some new gameplay snippets worth catching, a bit more power-loader action to finish with. Check it out below.

Aliens: Colonial Marines is due on February 12th 2013, on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, with a Wii U version yet-to-be-dated.

It has drop-in/out coop so am hoping it will be good fun with 4 players, but after watching that I'd rather just play borderlands 2 for my coop kicks.
It reminds me of Duke forever, shitty half-baked game selling on its name alone.
I get the feeling Gearbox aren't really interested in much more than Borderlands, and these gigs just pass the time between them.

RPS did a funny article about this today:

The latest trailer for Aliens: Colonial Marines has the worst – and I mean the worst – voiceover script I have ever heard.

Turns out, even the games writer disowned that shit.

Man I kinda hoped this game would have some cool L4D style versus multiplayer.

Wish for L4D3

Haha, somebody at the Sega PR department likely just got their bum kicked hard for that voiceover.

Jesus, that dialogue was fucking terrible. Good to hear that it's not actually in the game though. Fuck, what a downer.

try reading the thread mantorok...

I'll never understand a potential buyer that is swayed by some retarded voiced over cgi trailer, or the kind of trailer this thread is based on (but done better i guess), or the black ops 2 live action trailers.

That aliens vs marines mode video got me more interested in this game because I got to see the game... I really don't understand the common man.

one is a multiplayer shooter and one is a co-op/single player shooter with tacked on multi as required by all games today?

edit: how is ns2 going in Australia these days? any good communities/servers that are frequented by competent players/commanders so its actually fun?
