Aliens: Colonial Marines! Must see guys

Here you are the article and the first pics of Aliens: Colonial Marines for PS2. You have to read the article in order to know the´re in game shots. WOW! incredible!

Aliens: Colonial Marines show first shots

If this is real, we’re, in the words of the now legendary Bungie Xbox speech from this year’s E3, "cybernetic warriors in the future"

Look at these screens. These are the very first images of Aliens: Colonial Marines, the PlayStation 2 shooter currently in development at Fox, to be published by EA. If these shots are taken from a running game then you’re looking at one of the best-looking PlayStation 2 titles in the works anywhere in the World. As ever, time will tell.
Colonial Marines is set after the events of the fantastic movie Aliens and runs parallel to the events in the frankly dodgy Alien 3. You control a team sent to investigate the disappearance of a unit of marines on colony LV-426. Basically you and a load of other grunts go into an incredibly dangerous situation and try to take on the most vicious killing machine in the known universe. Hordes of them. Luckily you’re able to issue commands and formation orders on the fly. That’s alright, then.

EA reckons the game ships on November 30, and if these shots are anything to go by, you should be tearing the room you’re currently sitting in apart with anticipation. Of course, there may be a little porky pie antics going on here…













My god! those graphics are... yeah!

That\'s about all I can say!  No words to decribe it!

I\'m not so fancy on the plot so far.  But I think I won\'t bash, nor praise this one until I try it.

Those are pretty sweet.

Hopefully the gameplay will match

I remember a while back when people were debating whether or not those are ingame shots.   I think they look too good to be true, but hopefully I\'ll be proved wrong when the game\'s released.

WOW[/b]!!!! @#$!%!!!!! Now thats PS2 POWER!!!! I must have this game!!!! MGS2, SH2 and now Aliens: Colonial Marines, PS2s bests titles to come!!  

Part of me hopes they are Ingame shots. The other part of me kinda hopes they aren\'t, cos if they are I\'ll be wondering why the f**k other PS2 games don\'t look that good!

"While not an actual screenshot, these mockups look much like the aliens in the game, just a lot less shiny and detailed."

These are old E3 mockups... not sure why CVG posted them.

i saw these pics awhile ago, and i am happy that they are ingame. so far i think this may be in the top 3 best looking videogames ever.

but i bet the storyline will suck.

why cant they make a good graphicall game and a good storyline!!!

well MGS2 did it, but why dont they do it too!

I saw a video of the game in action and it looked fantastic. Although it looks like Hoji3 has proven that these are concept screenshots.

The game styill looks great just not this great,. The game is still early

It\'s pretty obvious that these aren\'t ingame... The screens have no jaggies whatsoever... Every game, no matter what system, has jaggies to some extent.

I don\'t feel like downloading it again but if i remember correctly it look very much like the indoor areas from Halo with bump maps every where.

I\'m not impressed anymore.  Those aliens reacted idiotically.  They move, you shoot, they stand up, you stop shooting, they go back down, and do hardly anything until you shoot them again. . . and so they stand up.  Whoop-de-do.

Thats my bad, actually. :/  I should have mentioned that the game is stil *very* early and any sort of advanced AI has not been implemented yet.  In the end, your teammates (Squad based Aliens game) and the aliens should respond convincingly.

The video HO3j linked you two is a demo of the game with hardly if any AI in place.

Don\'t judge games that are quite aways away on early vids !!!!!

The game will be much better then the video

Looks really nice, also the fifth screen looks like it\'s pre-rendered.

I loved the PSX-game Alien Triology so maybe i will love this one too. The graphics were crap, but i liked the soundtrack and the atmosphere of Alien Triology.
