After all, Creative Assembly has a good track record. An RTS Alien game would have been cool though.
is this x1 exclusive?

They didn't make Colonial Marines either.....
Who the fuck would want an Alien game from SEGA after CM?
Sega got just as screwed over by that as we did, this one won't be the same.
why make this game?
This.
At some point it just becomes Starship Troopers.
IF I have ammo to spare on human enemies why not just shoot the alien in the head?
Some conveniently "hulk" armored alien?
You mean Starcraft?
Because Alien and Aliens have inspired a stupid number of videogames without ever reaching truly great heights in this medium themselves. Both Alien and Aliens had a select few game-ish shots (and admittedly also Alien 3's fpv shots). This series was meant to be put into videogame form; just needs to be done right.
^Tell me you don't want that game. Because fuck.

Weird since they'll probably make more money on 360/PS3 because there so many out there but now it looks like Evolve (Turtle Rock's next game) is going to be on the cover.It's cross-gen to all five to my knowledge, but if it's GI's cover then the current-gen versions were canned.
Have fun shooting dudes, if earlier rumors are accurate.

There is people thinking this will be any different from CM?
Is this next-gen only? Hopefully this is the game I have been waiting for, I would love to play it on next-gen hardware at 1080p. Looking forward to the PS4 release, but I wonder if the Wii U will get shafted again like with Colonial Marines.
I hope this particular Xenomorph makes a cameo

Love the screens.
But reading the rumors about it being a shooter in which you mostly shoot humans (clones or whatever) completely killed any ounce of hype for me.
I still hope this isn't a shooter. Unfortunately info bits like "1-4 player coop" do not sound particularly encouraging.
The rumors say they're only one alien in the game. Which makes it even scarier.
My guess is that it will play like a survival horror Butcher Bay.
I'm okay with one Alien. A survival-horror game is what many fans of the franchise wanted for a long time.
I'm not okay with lots of cannon fodder enemies. It's bad enough when you shoot hundreds of weak Aliens. That's just not scary. It's a disservice to the iconic creature from the movies. But what's even worse is shooting lots of human enemies in an Alien game. Be it "evil corporation" space-marines or clones. That just doesn't fit the license at all.
Too bad that developers of AAA games can't find more interesting things to put into their games than hordes of cannon fodder enemies. :-/
Just one alien?
Let's wait and see what it's all about first. Hard to tell the details from where we stand now.
Certainly looks pretty
yeah, no way it looks like this on xboxone/ps4
I hope not, I really really want my gamepad motion scanner
Whats wrong with shooting soldiers and androids? You can still create an oppressive survival based game with that. Too many aliens removes their sense of dread and mystery.

the gearbox game looked good in shots too before it came out. I want this to be good, but it's hard to believe after the last turd.
