That was pretty funny, and the game looks even more awesome than I remember it.Anthony Davis said:

VD said:In Ukraine?
Anthony Davis said:Also, I never said KOTOR2 sold as much as Oblivion. I said that it has sold between 1.5 and 2 million copies.
Heh, I love that site. Lot of hilarious movie reviews. His FMV game reviews are probably the best though.Anthony Davis said:http://www.spoonyexperiment.com/games/Thing/
Volourn said:"Besides Anthony kinda winked at VtmB exp system where you don't get exp for killing but you get it for solutions of different situations."
Except in BL, this system fell flat because it just ended up making you just run pass enemies 'cause they meant nothing and they wer enormally ignorable. Lame.

I confirmed with our HR Manager, Jim Rivers, that the 'RTS' is indeed a typo. It should have read 'RPG'.

I have no idea what Oblivion sold, but I bet it was a lot.
As far as an Aliens RPG is concerned, there are a lot more RPG elements in that movie than you would think.
There are really only 3 action scenes in the whole movie:
The First Encounter.
The Aliens invade Medical.
The Queen Fight.
Everything else was dialog, character interaction, character development, and environment interaction. Vasquez and Drake, Vasques VERSUS Gordon, Ripley and Hicks, Ripley and Newt, Apone and the Squad, Ripley and Bishop, and much more. Hell, you could even argue that there was BASE development when the marines took over Medical and fortified the area.
If you count the novels and the rest of the 'canon' source material, there is a gold mine of information to work with, and J.E. Sawyer has really done his homework.
I know people are skeptical of movie licensing in games, but this isn't the Aliens Movie Game. It is an RPG set in the Aliens Universe that happens to chronologically take place after Aliens and before Aliens 3.

Im pretty interested in this, having just finished an avp2 playthrough and started the marine campain in avp, and i guess my question, if youre at leisure to answer this, is how is combat shaping up? Has this been mentioned anywhere and Ive just missed it? Is this a party based game or 1 character or 1 character + sidekicks? is it isometric or over the shoulder or first person? have i asked enough questions? :wink:
Is something burning, Volly?Volourn said:Nobody claimed it was, dumbass.
Matt7895 said:Personally, Aliens would probably be in my top 10 films of all time (were I ever to make a list), and Obsidian have built up a good rep so far. I think we should hold off judgment until more info is released.
Alpha Protocol, however... well, from what I've seen, I am very skeptical.
