Aliens: Colonial Marines will be released for PC and next-gen consoles some time in 2009...
Gearbox's Alien FPS title has been without a full title for over a year now. The game, which will be published by SEGA on PC and next-gen consoles, has now been given the working title of Aliens: Colonial Marines.
Print magazine Game Informer has revealed further details on the game, which is still scheduled for release some time in 2009. Apparently, the FPS game "aims to recapture the tension and desperation of the earlier films." This can only be good news, as Alien and Aliens were obviously the superior movies.
However, it seems that Sega and Gearbox have overlooked a long forgotten FPS game under exactly the same title. Originally scheduled for a 2001 release on PS2, the game from Check Six Studios and EA was cancelled for unknown reasons. It would also have been set in the universe of the infamous movie quadrilogy.
The upcoming issue of Game Informer is also set to feature the next Red Faction game, which is apparently now being called Red Faction: Guerrilla.
There are still no further details on SEGA's parallel Alien title in development, an RPG game from Obsidian which is destined for the same platforms as the FPS during 2009.

i hate this bloody waiting bull crap its been how bloody long cmon sega over 5 years now whats the bloody problem.avp was a waste of gaming time then u go and cut support for the only aliens based game we had.this game should be ready now as an apology for the crap we put up with from publishers and devs like u pull out and sell the bloody liscence to a company that knows how fans feel sod sonic and what ever crap ur working on now and get urselfs a decent game out

This is BS - AvP is horrible and all the previous AvP games have been mediocre at best. I'm so mad about this right now. I thought the guy in the Gamestop store had lost his mind when he told me "Next Year". Alien and Aliens need a game of this calibur to bring it back strong. Pushed out over a year? Yeah right - we'll be lucky to ever see this game. I will not be purchasing another crappy AvP game.

I got a funny feeling that this may turn out just like the other aliens:colonial marines a no show! which will really piss me off along with other alien fans,dont get me wrong i love AVP, but would really like this game

Listen I really think they need to come out with this game first due to the fact of well what if we do not like AVP ok what then you are not going to put out Alien:colonial marines. I mean ths game is already done why don't you guys just send it out for us to see what it is like and then when you guys get finished with AVP since you guys are not even done making it we might get it if we like that alien game.

Well considering Aliens: Colonial Marines wont be out till 2010, it's an easy choice surely?

I just saw that this game was coming out when I was looking through an Xbox 360 magazine. I think I'm a little torn on which to save my money on, Aliens: Colonial Marines, or Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2(By the way, that's coming out November tenth of this year!!!:)!!!)

I hope the rumours of SEGA pulling funding arent true - a dedicated Aliens game is much better then this AvP crap.

I can't believe this, thought the no show was suspcious. Why can't Gearbox get stuff out in time?

I wonder what they got planned.
