About The Game
In Aliens: Colonial Marines, players are part of a United States Colonial Marine squad and must prepare to face an Aliens assault more intense and horrific than ever before.
Driven by an original story penned by renowned writers Bradley Thompson and David Weddle, Aliens: Colonial Marines retains the atmospheric look and feel of the original films while leveraging next-generation technology to create an entirely new interactive Aliens experience. Packing classic Aliens weaponry ranging from pulse rifles to flamethrowers as well as brand-new equipment and skills all within a squad-based combat system, players become an elite United States Colonial Marine.
Featuring claustrophobic environments, a brooding soundtrack, and a multitude of surprises and shocks, players battle against menacing alien hordes in levels that include the stark interiors of the abandoned Sulaco and unique environments created specifically for the game. Aliens: Colonial Marines features a story driven single-player mode and an all-new four player co-op mode allowing players to share the chilling experience with three friends. In co-op mode, each player assumes the persona of a United States Colonial Marine and have a distinct role to play in the completion of every mission.

This game really showcased the Wii U's graphics!
this game is going to rock.
A guy who (presumably) worked on the game said that the Wii U version was a joke. :/ Gear Box is in a lot of trouble because of lying to SEGA, Wii U launch looks sketchy, and even if it is released, if it's the worst version I'm not sure I'll buy.
After the ps3 reviews it looks like its "game over man...game over" I was so excited as well I would love if the Wii U version came out and was completely different and got 8 or higher...now that money is tight I have become a rating snob =L
I wish this game would either come out or just cancel. I'm sick of wondering if it will come out and when. It got pretty bad reviews but i'm willing to give it a chance.
reviews can be wrong. look at zombi u
