I can't complain. Then again, I do admit that I've never seen any of the Alien films. I've been meaning to get the Quadrilogy box set for a while, I just never got around to it.

I think Resurrection has a couple of decent bits but overall I fucking loathed it. The underwater chase was pretty amazing but that's about it. Alien 3 is a masterpiece compared to that. It certainly isn't one of the worst sequels I've ever seen but I just didn't like it that much either.

Resurrection is shit as far as action goes, but the actual Aliens have never been as beautifully realized as in that movie. The scene
where the alien crawls into the rescue pod right before it closes

Just watch Alien and Aliens. You can pretty much skip the rest. The first two are different but both fantastic for what they are. Alien being more of a horror movie and Aliens being more of an action film.

I think Alien 3 is pretty decent although a far cry from the greatness of the first two. Certainly better than Resurrection.

It's too late. CcrooK's heart is already broken. Looks like he's on suicide watch for the next three months.

I saw it opening day and haven't seen it since. As an ALIEN fan I was pretty insulted.

I hope this is successful.
That way someone will think it's a good idea to make a new AvP game, or better yet just a Predator game.

I think a Predator game would have to take a ton of liberties on the canon but if they did it right and kept the feel and atmosphere of Predator it could work.

AVP2 had an awesome Predator campaign that let you use all of his gear and more. The storyline was amazing too. There's no reason why they can't have another great Predator game.brandonh83 said:

If you talking about the hud perspective I agree they are a bit big.TEH-CJ said:
Should be more like this:
As to what it is at the moment (actually they should just look at that game as a whole and just use everything that was executed in AVP2 so perfectly :lol )

Someone needs to make an AVP2 thread so everyone who missed it can see what's up. That game was just unforgettable.

I saw Aliens opening day and as you said it truly could be THE best action movie ever made. Nearly 22 years later and outside Paul Reiser's wardrobe the damn flick hasn't aged a bit.
Resurrection was entertaining but then entire ending was a complete "WTF?" in terms of creature design. heh.
I suppose if you want to get technical, the only real canon of the Predator are the movies (I do not believe that Fox recognizes the books or comics). So since it's pretty barebones to begin with, they could get away with adding a lot of layers of background which previous games have done.brandonh83 said:

Pretty much, which is basically why I mentioned that... I was just saying because fans literally hate it when other people change things around. They'd have to be careful.

Only way to do it justice is playing it with the lights off, headphones (or nice speakers I suppose), late at night, with the sound nice and loud. Shit, I hate that game! Scares the living crap out of me every time.
Reading about AvP2 and seeing pictures/video just can't capture the essence of knowing you're going to be ripped to shreds by something you can't see right around the next corner. But I approve of any thread praising it, and do hope the new game can capture the scared shitless feeling AvP2 did for me.

watching some AvP2 videos...
am I seeing this right? You can actually be a facehugger in multi-player? Is that a special mod or something? Awesome!
