Gearbox’s Latest Aliens: Colonial Marines Video Takes us Back to LV-426

For me, Aliens was one of the most influential movies when I was growing up (besides Tron). While the original was great, Aliens took that film and pumped it up full of steroids and testosterone, and now we get to go back for more.

Randy Pitchford, the smart guy with the big job title at Gearbox, narrates this 10 minute romp through the remains of the colony after the explosion caused by Ripley and Company following the end of Aliens as backup arrives at LV-426 to ‘clean up’ the mess.

The game looks fantastic and should be pretty fun considering it’s a pure Aliens game, not one tainted by Predators at all. It will be available to the masses in 2012 for PC, PS3, Wii U, and Xbox 360.

I sit upon my throne as the owner/shogun of this site, WatchPlayRead. But it wasn't always so. I too have had blogspots, I've done other community blogs, I've even written professionally for other sites out there...yet none of them provided the content I had a real passion for. It is then that I became tired of being a small cog in a big machine, and of writing about nothing but game news after game news article and the periphery that comes from such schlock, like knowing who Michael Pachter and Bobby Kotick are. I decided to start MediaWhoreNetwork.com and ran up my post count there for about 2 years, commenting about any and everything that I wanted to. I even started a weekly podcast that I feel has come into its own. It wasn't until earlier this year that I realized that having the word "whore" in your URL might be a bit limiting to my potential audience. I then made the website and its branding move over to WatchPlayRead.com.
