Aliens: Colonial Marines Message Board  

I think the first Halo on Xbox looked better. I certainly feels like a shooter from 2005. Gameplay is so terribly outdated it hurts. Mayor disappointment. At least I know why this was only 39.99€. Well, story seems decent and they stood true to the movies.

I totally agree with this. Playing with max settings doesn't look like the screenshots or videos I've seen. Very disappointing.

Yeh guys, its a bit naff. Sorry to see it though, could have been so so much more.

Wish I hadn't seen this thread, I still have one hour until the game unlocks in my region, lol.

Well, at least my standards will be adjusted downward a bit when I finally do get to play it!!

OK so graphics suck... is gameplay any fun?

The game looks great, so what if it doesn't have dx11 quality graphics and it looks no where near as bad as Halo and that game looked like crap, the story was good, which made the game good.

I admit that they should have put in more locations with medkits, but otherwise, its a good game, i would suggest players not listen to PR BS about games, wait for them to come out and buy it and play it and judge it on its own merits and de-merits, comparing it to another game is a bad thing to do.

Overall, the game rocks.

I see people are still more interested in eye candy than content, and they wonder why games are rubbish these days.

From what I heard, A:CM will get a hi-rez pack on Steam next week.

The graphics don't disappoint me all that much. Sure, they could've been a hell of a lot better, but they're still nice. And the gameplay seems to be decent. I think overall I'd give the game a 5/10 or so, maybe a 6 or 7 just on nostalgia.

However, it's 12:25 PST here, and the stupid game STILL has not unlocked. Still waiting to play.

It saddens me that people still find graphics the most important aspect of the game.
