do not understimate
avp in the gaming world (you can understimate the films anyway, xD). rebellion is the daddy of
avp, and his old
avp game is still best
avp game out there, far superior to Its sequel in terms of atmosphere, gameplay, sound, marine weapons, etc; actually, there has been no better "aliens" game than Rebellion,s
avp till date. As I say many times, and I,m sure this is shared with many of you, the only cons I see in avp3 (till now) is the alien warrior..., here is where GB has the chance to make
ACM better than avp3, because bringing you the perfect "Aliens" experience is not only a matter of doing It more strategic or trying to re-capture the same atmosphere of the movie (this last thing is critical too anyway)..., the most important thing are the alien warriors themselves, the aliens we saw in the movie (here is where Rebellion has failed with their avp3 imo), and if GB fail on this duty too, I mean, making the warriors as they should be, then the strategic thingy or any other original and fresh thing featured by
ACM could not be enough in order to satisfy the need of facing the aliens as they actually were in the films, and I mean, huge and terrific 2,30- 3 meters tall human-like things, with no 1 KM tails or any other ridiculous add-on.
The most important thing in an "Aliens" game should be the warrior Itself (Rebellion has already failed here as we can see in their avp3 trailers) and the atmosphere, just those two things.
The fact that
ACM will be more strategic doesn,t necessarily mean that It,ll be more succesful OR better than avp3, It will be the game based off of the movie nothing more. Yeah, lots of us have been waiting for a pure aliens game the hell of a whlie (since we were youngsters), but that is all.
I usually wonder myself what makes a lot of people to think that
ACM will be better just because It is going to be tactical. Don,t take It as an offense cause everyone has his own taste, but no one can claim this game will be better because It,s tactical and the other is not. IMO this game obviously had to be played with AI buddies (or co-op human buddies) just because in the film we saw a whole marine squadron facing the aliens, and that,s all people..., that,s all.
