Aliens RPG

Dawn of War II
Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor
Empire Total War
Fear 2: Project Origin
Half Life 2: Episode 3 (one can hope)
Doom 4

Not a whole lot, I mean I've seen some others that I were borderline interested in, like iD Software's Rage and Gearbox's Borderlands, but I'm not holding what I've seen so far in high regards.

Also, with the new Company of Heroes game, only two new units are added in, but the new armies are rebalanced and have retextured units thrown in to keep them separate from the previous ones, what I'm looking forward to more than anything for it is the new multiplayer modes, because don't get me wrong, Company of Heroes is probably one of my most favorite games ever, but the same multiplayer modes over and over again gets kind of old.

*IF* we're talking about the same thing it seems pretty cool - I've only read one article in GI and this wiki article, but I'm stoked so far.

Didn't know Aliens RPG :drool:

Posted: Fri Jan 09, 2009 7:33 am

You're not talking about the same thing. Aliens: Colonial Marines is a FPS from Gearbox. The Aliens RPG is in development by Obsidian.

Based solely on the name, the Alien RPG game sounds interesting. Thats really it. Oh and am sort of curious about the new LOTR battlefront game. I a almost certain it will suck, but it'll be worth a rental maybe?

Colonial Marines gonna kick some serious ass. It's apparently gonna have a large amount of importance in setting up base defenses-- putting up barricades and strategic sentry gun placements. Everything I've heard is good thus far.

The games I'm waiting for in 2009 are the things I bought in 2008 that I can't play due to DRM.

Maybe the Aliens thing will be cool.
I love sentry guns.

well the aliens RPG is ment to have more to do with The Company and interactions, etc, which is what I'm looking really forward to.

Is that you or the official Ecksbocksmagazine talking? icon_confused2

Me. I could have swore I already passed on the notification that I'm a long-standing Aliens fan. Decent Alien games are my Cialis.

By Allah's chocolate starfish, you got a point there! icon_dance

Meself, I'm only waiting for 7.62 - High Calibre to happen. But I'll soon give up and dl the Russian version. icon_drunk

Oh, and Jagged Alliance 3 despite it seems to be a "lite" version.

I'm looking forward to Aliens RPG of course but I don't think its going to be released this year as I thought thats when they were going to release alpha protocal. Alpha Protocal i'll probably like since its like the only other RPG that will come out. Age of Decadence could be good too by the sounds of the raging fan boys.

Then there is Resident Evil 5 in March which will be fun.

The new Company Heroes is gonna kick ass, Germany all the way!
