Want to play a good modern Alien game? Play Rebellion's AvP, or Aliens: Infestation on DS. (Metroidvania with squad permadeaths, pretty intense)

I give it a BLISTERING FUCKING FURY/10

Excuse me sir but I like my Brothalands very much.

S'okay I forgive you.

Nah man, Rebellion's AvP is that one game that came out over a year ago on PS3, 360 and PC.
It's pretty nice and I loved what I played of it, plus Steam kinda always puts it on sale whenever possible if you wanna get it on the cheap with a more active playerbase. (PS3/360 bargain bin price can be up to $10 if you can actually find it. So worth the investment.)

Yep, all Marines, but the Xeno encounters are really awkward. Its rare to see more then 3 or 4 at a time, when its obvious there should be more, near the end of the first level comes to mind for that specific problem. The A.I. is garbage, really, really garbage. Aliens will flat out run up to you, rather then say, clinging to walls or using vents to their advantage and flank. At best they will move under walkways, which is cool at first, but they just come up a second later right behind you and are really vulnerable during that and if you run past them the A.I. completely ignores you, even if it should still be chasing you a great distance.

Far as story goes it was pretty interesting. I want to see what happened on the planet, why other huamsn are there and tons of other stuff. the easter eggs alone I was telling myself would be worth it, but I couldn't do it. Just couldn't freaking do it. the second level was a long one too, but seeing as characters rarely talked or crackedwise, freaking SOMETHING to say along the way, it got repetitive really fast and the gunplay was far below anything i could of imagined. If you're a big alien fan though, do play it but wait for a big price drop. What its going for right now does not reflect in the effort and testing put into it.

the zombie mod is pretty cool,especially in 4 players,but theres laaag sometimes
