I had high hopes for this game, but they seemed so preocupied to pimp the so many efforts wasted on the shitty multiplayer this last half year, i dunno anymore if any good will come out of the game's campaign.

Gunplay sure doesn't feel any good at all.

Can you upload the video without subtitles?

As usual, as soon as we can. You should know by now that when we only show the French version of a video, it's not by choice. ;)

PC footage sure looked good back then, but console versions ? Idk...
Far Cry 3 -> PC vs Consoles would be a befitting comparison here.
It's loosing MUCH of it's charme on the consoles counterparts.

you shouldn't compare PC with consoles, it's unfair... even the exklusives on consoles of Microsoft, Sony etc. look soooo outdated compared to playing on a medium quality PC, especially when it comes to the details

Are you saying this game does not feel like your precioussus Call of Duty BlopsII? it looks like a run of the mill shooter why should it play any more special specially when a shooter that tries just gets crapped on by the CoD fanboys in the professional review sites and magazines.

Anyways I'm actually looking forward to playing the single player mode in this since its focused on just the Alien franchise... just not sure if its worth the full $60 yet but hey it looks good and pretty... PC version will be prettier but we don't know how it will run so it doesn't matter really.

You are precisely the reason i would never want to be a PC gamer. If this is what it turns you into, then frankly i'd rather not bother.

Well, the current console hardware is pretty goddamn old now. There's no denying it. So yeah, a lot of games look better on PC but in general i think the most of us agree that how they play is the really important bit.

Also i think PC gaming has advantages for other reasons as well, such as more independent games, modding and less hassle for developers (ie no goddamn expensive certification processes and so forth).

Its one thing to say the PC version of a game looks better (its a bit "captain obvious", but people like to say it for some reason) but its another thing to be an elitist prick about it. If playing PC games turns you into the later like so many forum dwellers indicate, i'll take my "inferiour" system and run. Don't wanna be part of that group tbh.

Or maybe they are just a vocal minority. I mean it's not like there aren't assholes defending the consoles either. By that logic you can't prefer any systems, because all of them have asshat fanboys.

I'm sorry but this looks like a steaming pile of shite. With one of the best adaptable IP's in cinema to turn into a videogame they should have knocked it out of the park. Instead we get this cliched piece of predictability that stinks from a mile away. I have a strong suspicion this is going to be average at it's very best. I'll be happy if i'm wrong.

This is very true.
Seems the level headed thinkers tend not to comment compared to the overcharged fanboy wanting to spew their propaganda.

I hate PC elitists too but I didn't saw any of that in that comment to be honest, he just stated some facts thats all.

It's a damn shame the direction this game went. I remember reading about it years ago and it was then planned to be a tactical shooter, which could have been really interesting.

Right, why mention something that is obvious to gamers anyway ?
The point is the game's graphics on PC looked okay back then, good in terms of the original's atmosphere & style, yet very dated compared to others on PC, which sure has to do with the movie's conceptual design. I was just worrying that the (rather well emulated, yet) minimalistic look & feel that gearbox managed to port over will be ruined on consoles by lack of AA, lower screen- and texture-resolution and - worst of all - the super-awful trilinear texture filtering (which i personally dislike the most on the consoles tbh). And then there's still the Dead Spaces, Lost Planets, Resident Evils and so on where i practically cant distinguish console from PC version...

Why only French videos lately?

In reply to

Commented on 2012-12-30 11:12:52 In reply to THU31

Because we're a French website and that's the only versions we've had access to lately. Plus, seeing you guys complain because there are subtitles is a bit annoying considering people on the French side usually don't complain when the videos are full English, while most French people don't speak English at all. Now if you prefer no videos at all on the English side, no problem, we won't have to translate the news texts either. ;p

You are going to lose a lot of your audience if this continues, and it is a substantial audience judging by the comments/forums.
I love your website because you offer the best quality videos out there, but you are usually a bit late, and now this French stuff. No offence, I mean to say this as constructive criticism.
I often download videos from your website to keep them, if I like them a lot, because of the quality. I know most French people are presumptuous about their language, but I hope there are no such people here.

If they don't have access to the english version of the trailers, how the f**k are they supposed to post them? :P

They have lost access to english trailers for every single game? Seems rather weird. I have not noticed this phenomenon anywhere else.
It is not just about the subtitles, but about the text in the trailers as well. With subtitles I can at least hear the original, but if everything is in French, then I cannot understand it. I might as well watch the Japanese version, or some other alien language.
