Aliens: Colonial Marines Multiplayer Screens Are Some We like, MP Details Inside

We think you will, too.

“It’s a bit of a revelation to find a team deathmatch mode that’s more than a simple xeno-bashing muck about – the asymmetrical gameplay is equal parts tense and grin-inducing,” said CVG in its preview of the game.

“You need to play like you’re in the movie. Stick together, hug the walls, use the motion tracker and watch the corners. Basically anything that sounds like Apone would say is applicable here. Crouching in a corner is particularly effective.

The xenos use ceilings and ventilation shafts to get close, then rush in from short range at the last minute – exactly like the movies, then. Maybe that’s the most striking thing about this multiplayer mode – the game mechanics act like James Cameron himself, guiding you into performing a role that replicates the movie and creates a kind of effortless authenticity.”

The game’s out this fall for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
