Aliens Colonial Marines

Surprised nobody brought this up. Actually being developed by Gearbox Software. Looks like the Alien game that SHOULD Have been made instead of Aliens vs. Predator crap that was released a couple years ago.

Im looking forward to that game too.
Smells like we gonna have some sweet coop incoming. :3

 

Is the crap one the one that came out last year or the 1999 one? Cause the 99 one was actually pretty good.

 

Thanks HT, looking forward to this .

 

No, it came out last year. http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/aliens-vs-predator/index.html

The AvP and AvP 2 in 2000 and 2001 were phenomenal.

One geek thing though, the date shows 5-30-2180, but they're still using IPv4

 

Heh, it's funny...but probably true. Just think about the technology that's still hanging around even though there's tons of better stuff. Due to the motto: "If it ain't broke, then don't fix it"

 

Yeah, but *WE* are migrating to IPv6 VERY SOON. Local networks will probably remain IPv4 though, at least for a while. At least now I can remember my IP address on my LAN but at IPv6 it will be a bit more difficult. Although in 170 years I would hope we'd migrate everything to IPv6.

 

maybe ipv6 didn't work out and they reverted to ipv4

maybe ipv4 means something totally different than what you think it means. after all, the internet is basically less than 30 years old, and this is about 170 years in the future.

 

Maybe some animator was told to come up with some computery looking crap and he tossed in an IP address

 

I think you win!

And all of us geeks would be dead because an Alien would have snuck up behind us and eaten us while we bickered about v4 vs v6.

 

Well, the ip is a valid working address. I wonder how many of you guys tried to look it up or try to access it?

I wonder what else is in there using different protocols......

 

Nice. I would expect them to use their own IP, of course, because it would be pretty irresponsible to toss someone else's IP address on there.

 

This looks good, but I don't want to get too excited...

Wasn't Sega in charge of that last crapshoot AVP game, and now they're publishing this one?

 

Yeah, but at least it's Gearbox games.

 

Gearbox is far from perfect as well...I mean look what they did to Duke Nukem

 

And while Borderlands is a fun game, it was Nvidia biased and AMD users often have issues with it.

The FOV settings and the running ranks as #1 most annoying for me of any game.

So yes, Gearbox games have huge flaws and Gearbox are too lazy to fix them.

I have mixed feelings about them. I liked Borderlands game content, I don't like how it was optimized for PC. And Gamespy? Really? That was horrible.

 

Sega was the publisher. The ones in charge of development were Rebellion.
Aliens: Colonial Marines will be published by Sega as well.

EDIT: Aliens Colonial Marines seems to have a pretty stormy development.

Wiki Quote

So basically, the game should have been released sooner, but it seems that Gearbox concentrated more on getting Duke Nukem out after the whole fiasco with the other developers.
