Movies that have inspired practically every single popular shooter on the market now await a direct video game adaptation. The spirit of the Alien moveis, particularly James Cameroon's flick Aliens, can be felt in every other modern-day FPS.

This time Sega and Gearbox Software are making Aliens: Colonial Marines. Naturally, it's a squad-based first-person shooter and a take on the mentioned popular movie series. Players are going to experience a story-driven single player campaign, which centers around a team of troops facing an alien assault.

Sega and Gearbox made it clear that the game concatenates on conveying the atmosphere from the films and they promised a tense squad-based FPS experience. Also, a 4-player co-op has been announced, allowing each player to assume a unique role within the squad.

Aliens: Colonial Marines is expected to arrive for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC platforms some time in late 2008.

About time there's another one.
There was a game being made with the same title as this, however, it was canceled for some reason. But I can't wait for this, especially because it's on the new generation systems. I hope they don't screw anything up. I'm probably gonna reserve a copy once I get the money.

Awesome game. I don't really play it anymore, because it's so easy to hack it, though. You're not really playing against anyone with skill, just people with hacks.
