I forgot how old this game actually was, and it gave me a small shock to hear Ryan open the video. Always missed, duder.

[@rebeccacalliou4735]

Its always a treat looking up old quicklooks and hearing his voice

[@MasteroChieftan]

Here's the thing.... Why is it so damned hard to make a game based on Aliens? I mean, the mythos is literally set up for a videogame.

[@EmotionalHobocore]

16:09 was pure gold.

[@Vulkans]

"Let's have a look at Aliens: Colonial Marines" *Video starts with fighting people*

[@Sheps92]

The shit hawks are coming for you Giant Bomb

[@josephrivas4762]

their acid will not hurt you just put your health regen on hold for a bit so walk without care

[@SilverBinge]

Your definition of "Quick Look" is fantastic.

[@simpletaste]

I was waiting for Drew to correct Ryan about Sulaco. First time i heard Ryan say it I was like like "wait whaa?" It's all good Ryan people make mistakes also Go Drew! Also Jeff's mah main man

[@ryanbentley5424]

Played through this game to the end.Fuck what is wrong with me this game is the epitome of generic crap

[@killdeer]

Protip for doing a quicklook, turn on the flashlight... it was part of the tutorial.

[@ectothermic]

This game is awesome in all the wrong ways.

[@LastSider]

Holy mother of god! 82 mins! This gotta be an action movie!

[@ironman276]

oh my fuck jeff thinking jim lahey and randy were designers on the game i'm crying i love jeff

[@TalkernateHistory]

The Paul Riser Clone Army is very mad, very mad about you.

[@Atrahasis7]

AvP 2000 is still the king after all this time.

[@RediceRyan]

You both love each other.

[@TheWingless]

Jeff, "I just thought the Alien looked dumb" *Immediately unsubscribes from Giantbomb*

[@LeeShadow]

You don't really see alot of Xenomorphs till the last half of the game.

[@1nfinitysL1mit]

Maaaan this game makes AVP look like a masterpiece in comparison.

[@Lanterfantable]

I like this Drew guy.

[@babalonkie]

You guys need to look at the controls, there's way more. Also upgrade your vs setups. And a big must... play the raven mission.

[@mikelcbarlow]

If Jeff ever told Giger that his Xenomorph design looked dumb, he'd probably eat his face off and make a painting with his blood.

[@Lb8068]

Dear God, that shotgun reload anim is horrendous.

[@LastSider]

Call of Xenomorph: The Human Conflict.

[@icetrey87]

lol I still love Ryan, but when he goes off in his know-it-all mode with wrong facts it still gets me every time. Like him saying that the voice is obviously not Michael Biehn, when it is.... Also this game is ass.

[@FunkyVerbV2]

This is kind of a weak Quick Look. I'm ten minutes in and you guys haven't even shared any opinions on the game yet.

[@NoThanksBossThisIsKindaLame]

Actually Fighting is Magic is back up...Or at least the last I heard it was.

[@TempAccountIndex]

People are saying that someone else made the campaign as the multiplayer is actually good, and the fact that they probably all were like"borderlands 2 is worth our time not this shit" and focused on that.

[@30LayersOfKevlar]

What makes you think they are part of different species Drew ?

[@AstralFrost]

Who knew this game would make that game look really good. And that's not a bad game at all, but it was considered pretty middling before this came along.

[@divefraggle]

Patrick is the poor man's Drew.

[@SMGrawks]

The fact that Jeff said he only saw bits and pieces of the first two Alien movies makes me think that's he an alien. How the FUCK do you live that long without seeing and liking those movies. It actually makes me mad.

[@SMGrawks]

Anyone male who hasn't seen the Alien movies should not be allowed to vote, period. It's unnatural.

[@TheJesterLoki]

More entertaining with some 80's music in the bg, I was playing this Maniac-flashdance (Dj Cato m&n Edit

[@okahontas12]

dafuq is this, Call of Duty: Space Warfare??

[@TheRespawnTimer]

I kinda meant the AVP game by Rebelion released in 2010 :). Bought it yesterday and I'm loving it a lot, kinda feel bad I have never bought it earlier :/

[@Kneedler1]

One quick look at the game and you can figure out why it was canceled the first time

[@TheArtkaw]

GAME OVER MAN

[@LikeACrouton]

If the man hasn't felt a need to watch a movie, why's that such a big deal lmao. "I don't wanna" is as much of an excuse as anything when it comes to something that isn't going to change his life

[@AlexFurry]

I had this game day 1 with the collectors edition in Xbox360, I was having fun except in the Wayland soldier encounters and had hours in multiplayer and coop but after some time I started to see the flaws and the game went boring very fast :T

[@klyx7]

I always loved the more recent AVP game. Supposedly it didn't get very good reviews but that opinion seems to have changed since this game came out...

[@30LayersOfKevlar]

You misspelled Drew.

[@LeeShadow]

This game has only one suspenseful part, It only lasts like 10-15 minutes. It's mostly pure action.

[@TapKim]

Wich one? The 2000 one i presume.

[@prontopup20]

i got a headache from the gun noises.

[@moesix]

Well, this was worse than I had imagined.

[@Fandango2034]

this game is 1999 and its 2013

[@TheAkujiki]

Finally someone else who thinks the Aliens/Xenomorphs look dumb lol.

[@josephrivas4762]

WAY-U GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@josephrivas4762]

havent we all...

[@Eric-Retro-Stuff]

Maybe they should have just ripped off Deadspace but with Aliens

[@josephrivas4762]

oh no fuck the frostbite engine use geomod

[@robertoszek]

Or you could install AKF (Aliens: Killing Floor Mod) and have some fun with the multiplayer mode :D

[@flrurry]

AvP was pretty awesome. I guess it's a matter of opinion.

[@digidaigaku]

This game looks very Brad.

[@Muppio]

Pretty much is.

[@XanderCrease]

The sound design is spot on, you'd think someone was actually watching Aliens if you listened from outside the room. Other than that it's just mediocre.

[@KingBlueSlimss]

Jim Lahey is a Baker lol

[@nomercy8989]

AVP2 to be exact... the 2010 one wasnt too good

[@wolvie90]

There is absolutely no excuse for having not watched Alien. "They look dumb" is one of the worst.

[@diehardfan06]

Call of Duty: Colonial Marines

[@KingBritishGuy]

Either one is better.

[@rainbowpoopman]

Quick look... 1 hour long haa

[@Sander001Che]

it's pronounced "Kernel"

[@Rrequin]

the game is not bad,not good but i prefer avp.

[@thewritingwriterof89]

The guy playing sounds just like Andy Richter

[@JedoDre]

Looks average. Don't see where the hate comes from based on this quick look.

[@yogineast]

1 star. ;(

[@RezaQin]

Looks pretty boring.

[@irondragon1234]

They had too long to work on this game for it to be this terrible.

[@P45KAL]

Would rather play X-Com:eu. Meh they messed this game up.

[@TheRespawnTimer]

Just buy Aliens vs Predator. Way cooler :)

[@jasper5453]

so disappointing =[[[[

[@Prosif]

This game looks pretty boring but I don't see why Alex gave it one star

[@stamosreal]

what a horrible game, im so genuinely uninterested

[@jamesjiao]

Pretty much. Looks like a very generic first person shooter.

[@drag0nfig0]

That's terrible. What is wrong with you? You want another man suffer for the sake of your entertainment? This generation...

[@johnfarley3489]

Buying this game on a flash steam sale i must say i rather enjoy this game. At least on pc i mean the first time i played this was on the ps3 now playing on ultra settings really makes consoles a dated mess. This is coming from someone that has been a console gamer for the past 14 years. PC is the platform to play most games on anymore and any console gamer that says other wise is either blowing smoke or just so dated themselves they fail to realize consoles as a whole really holds the industry back with many flaws including not supporting mods just as one! I'll tell you that just the games i still need to play from steam would take me a lifetime to finish. Just the amount of customization you have just gives me a headache with why i didn't invest in a PC to begin with.
