The official European website for SEGA's upcoming Alien titles reveal more...
Did SEGA Europe reveal more than they should have about the deal to produce titles based on the Alien franchise?
Yesterday the publisher confirmed that at least two titles set in the Alien universe would be released from 2009 onwards (one an RPG, the other an FPS), but a disclaimer on the European website for the game listed two extra little details not mentioned in SEGA's press release - the two development studios involved.
According to the now removed disclaimer, the two studios will be Obsidian Entertainment (recent producers of Neverwinter Nights 2) and Gearbox (Brothers in Arms series); given the heritage of both studios, it's not difficult to determine which outfit is producing the RPG and which is creating the FPS...
It's a near-certainly that the Alien FPS will be developed with Unreal Engine 3 given Gearbox's decision to create its next-generation projects with Epic's technology.
SEGA confirmed back in March that they'd signed a deal with Obsidian Entertainment for an untitled RPG.
We'll have more news shortly...

I think you may be getting confused with Aliens: Colonial Marines. When SEGA announced the Aliens license they confirmed two games:
An FPS from Gearbox named Aliens: Colonial Marines and an Aliens RPG from Obsidian Entertainment.
It's all gone very murky on both titles and in the meantime SEGA announced Aliens vs Predator with Rebellion, which will be coming out early next year.
We have no reason to doubt Gearbox's title will appear at some point - although at this precise time the only one that is certain is the AvP game from Rebellion.

I'm very disappointed in SEGa cacelling this game when it was going to be finished and released around Feburary of next year. They were doing so good with it, I was really looking forward to buy it and they threw it away as if they knew it was a failure. I don't know why they were calling it a RPG, cause it was in First person view from what I've seen.

I'm glad they cancelled the RPG - an RPG could never really work for Aliens.

Are you kidding me? I still play the first AVP game, it is the greatest rendition of all the aliens games combimed... except maybe the side scrolling avp game in an arcade machine.... Xbox360 version of the original AVP would be one of the best things ever to happen.

This will be awsome if they don't screw up the original horror theme of the films

I remember the old PC game, Alien vs Predator where you could play as either an Alien, Predator or Marine. Great game in its day. Would be great to see that updated for the 360!
