Took a look at it. Severely disappointing as a game. Felt like Call of Duty with an Aliens skin over it.

And there were a few bugs in the system... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8J8SzBhjqaQ

So far my friends and I have enjoyed it. And every game has bugs, Bethesda anyone? =P PC's already had a patch to address some things I hadn't even experienced during my play through.

As an Aliens nut, there is so much wrong. (Details, lots and lots of details.) But such is always the case.

As a professional working in the game industry, there is a number of things not up to par. (Animations, AI/Scripting)

As a Aliens fan who enjoys games? SOOOOOO much fun has been had already.

I think this game is a victim of the hype machine. From both industry and fans. I know most Aliens Fans were expecting something else and were disappointed with what they got. I on the other hand had low expectations and was rewarded. Cynicism is the way forward. ;) I know you don't know me from Jack, but it's got my stamp of approval.
