Aliens: Colonial Marines (2013 Video Game)
1/10
Dumb aliens, missing guns, and misleading trailer all in one game!
23 November 2013
Aliens colonial marines is absolute crap. I bought my version on the xbox and what I saw when I played it for the first time was complete garbage. The budget is low, and the online multi-player and the campaign is littered with game breaking bugs and glitches. The AI (artificial intelligence) is absolutely terrible. The aliens in the campaign are so stupid, they run into machine gun fire and sentry bullets. They don't even attempt to hide, they just jump out and do weird attack animations that look like old men doing a potty dance. And if that wasn't enough, I encountered a rare glitch where my Pulse Rifle wasn't there. The dude's hand was in a position where it looked like he was holding it, but it just wasn't there. This pushed me over the edge, because the only redeeming factor is the iconic weapons. The main guy you play with, O'Neal, is NO HELP WHATSOEVER. All he does is stare at walls and get stuck in spots that you have to move through, but you cant. And its obvious GearBox knows its crap, because they abandoned the multi-player online service, so the online is nothing but hacks and glitches. This game is Xenomorph doo-doo. Don't even attempt to buy it. You will undoubtedly laugh at the stupidity of the aliens. One last thing is the trailer. The trailer shows and epic battle between hordes of aliens vs the power loader. FALSE! This NEVER happens in the multi-player nor campaign. Please save your money and buy another game, this one will disappoint the hell out of you.
