The Sega one, let's talk about how horrible it is. And how much better this one is.

It is shit....I can assume that.

After the patches that gave the xenos you know, actual AI, it's a pretty fun game with friends if only to laugh at it and try to find all of the references. If anybody's down for getting a group together to play through the campaign or just shoot the shit on vs, count me in.

I probably won't be able to play until after Thanksgiving. My professors were all like, "Let's give this poor schmuck all of the projects. Ever." I'll probably be able to do it in about two weeks.

Sorry, whenever I buy a game on Steam. No one plays it anymore. Last game I was recommended to but was Pulsar, then everyone didn't care.

I'll play if someone gifts the game. You gift the game, I'll listen to you and play whenever I'm and your available. That's my rule when I'm gifted a game.

Hell, I have the game on Xbox 360, it was alright. It didn't feel exciting to play alone, I was hopping for some horror but then there were no horror and Isolation came out.

Honestly i can easily say this was best aliens game on console unless you count doom. Its the only one that I felt gave anything close to a real cm experience. The multiplay was great, only held back by a limited amount of players that could join, if it was like 30 player matches it would have been alot better. And every time i hear about why its "awful" people bring up AI which was drastically improved after the day one patch. all they have to show for it is a single video, that hello my honey video. and whats worse was that sega has hired obsidian to make a full rpg in the aliens universe, where you could be a civilian, a scientist, or a marine, and you had to keep the group alive and survive, because people complained about CM, they canceled that project, even though it was near completion.

I'm down to play CM whenever on PC, but Aliens: Crucible was canceled four years before the release of CM.

really? *sighs* i really need to stop listening to my brother when he tells me about crap like that. anyway, my point is, I think its a great game, but i think people let the hype or game critics influence their opinions too much. I mean, game stops mag gave it a lower score than duke nukem forever

One of my favorite online game stores is actually selling Aliens: CM for cheap right now, if anyone is interested.

I figured with the discovery of the recent fix for the shitty AI, I'd boot it up again and give it another whirl and by god it is a MUCH different experience now.

https://www.fanatical.com/en/game/alien ... collection

This sale is only available for another 2 days. Steam is required.
