New ‘Aliens: Colonial Marines’ Multiplayer Trailer Channels ‘Left 4 Dead’

It isn’t difficult to compare the multiplayer offering in the upcoming Aliens: Colonial Marines to Left 4 Dead — the same comparisons were made for the multiplayer in Dead Space 2 — but they’ve has made it even easier by giving the Xenomorphs abilities any L4D fan is already too familiar with. An alien that spits acid? Sounds familiar. A kamikaze alien that likes to get in your personal bubble so it can explode, showering you in giblets? Yep. How about an alien that’s really big, can take tons of damage, and likes to brute force your unsuspecting ass right into a wall? Colonial Marines has that too. I’m not complaining, because it still looks fun, I only wish it were a little more original. See the multiplayer in action after the break.

There are a lot of multiplayer games out there nowadays. It’s even harder to introduce one into the mix without it failing miserably.

Call Of Duty: Black Ops II’s Multiplayer Leaves A Memorable Impression At Gamescom

Some would say Call Of Duty’s multiplayer has gotten stale. I would never say such a thing, because of the shear amount of people who play the damn game. Though if I were to make such a comment I would say Modern Warfare 3 just didn’t do it for me. Judging by what we have seen so far, and now what many of the top video game sites tell me in the video below I can’t wait to jump into Black Ops II. Obviously being set in the future for once a large amount of doors are open to awesome new vehicles, weapons, locations and more. Check out the Accolades Trailer below, and don’t forget the game is going up again Halo 4 releasing just one week after it on November 13th.

‘Aliens: Colonial Marines’ Competitive Escape Mode Offers An Aliens Twist To A Familiar Multiplayer Mode

Sega and friends recently unveiled a new competitive multiplayer mode in the upcoming Aliens: Colonial Marines called ‘Escape’, and while it might be lacking in the originality department, it still looks like it’ll be good gory fun. In it, four marines attempt to escape an onslaught of Xenomorphs, four of which are controlled by a team of human players. The Cenomorphs come in a variety of flavors, including the damage-resistant Soldier, the speedy Lurker, and the ranged Spitter. This isn’t the first time a horror game has tried to capture Left 4 Dead’s success–Dead Space 2 made an admirable attempt last year–so I hope Colonial Marines is a little more successful. Check out some new Escape mode gameplay after the break.

There is no doubt that the maps in the last few Call Of Duty multiplayers have gotten stale. The whole “we’re at war” theme has definitely worn out its welcome. That probably explains why Nuketown is so popular. However, the Black Ops II multiplayer looks pretty damn fresh. Taking place in the god damned future, it better.

How do you take an already great multiplayer game and make it even greater? Overrun Mode. What separates Overrun from a normal game of chainsaw your friends in half? Classes. Each participating character has a separate class, and with that class comes specific duties. It also means a much easier way to blame your friends for your team losing. But it also means you really have to work together to win. Check out the Overrun Tutorial video below, and the Jack Island level b-roll video past the break.

I’m hooked on the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer. I don’t know what it is but I love it. Yes, many times I find myself yelling at the tv because the cover system isn’t as perfect as Gears Of War. But it’s still incredibly addicting. With each new multiplayer it gets better and better. New weapons, new characters, and new maps keeps bring me back for more and more.

Capcom’s two experiments with a multiplayer-centric Resident Evil haven’t been terribly successful. The first Outbreak sold well, but the reviews weren’t all that great and its sequel sold half as well, essentially killing the series until Operation Raccoon City came along. Unfortunately, ORC doesn’t really share much with the Outbreak series outside of four-player co-op. Read on for what I’d like to see Capcom do with the next multiplayer Resident Evil, whether it ends up being the long-requested Outbreak File #3 or an Operation Raccoon City sequel.

Remember the good old days when eventually Bungie would make their multiplayer maps free? Well guess what, THOSE DAYS ARE OVER. Companies want your money, and they want it bad. You know back when Nintendo and Super Nintendo were around, you could normally pay 60-100 dollars per game. Well, most games now are stuck on a 60 dollar price point. Clearly that isn’t enough. With some games you’re looking to spend at least 100 dollars over the life of the game to get all the DLC. If you have the patience you’re better off waiting for a game of the year edition or for a dramatic price drop. Well, amidst the ashes of all your wasted money, Uncharted developer Naughty Dog and Sony have decided to let you have all of the DLC for Uncharted 2: Among Thieves for free.

This is terrible terrible news. Especially for a certain Mr. Adam Dodd, who has been waiting seemingly half of his life for Diablo 3. Via a POST on the official Diablo site, the PvP will not be released with the game. Instead it will be later released in a patch. Yes for some this is the end of the world. But others will realize it’s all for the better.

They’ve stated that they didn’t want to hold back everyone from the campaign and the solo/co-op content since that it practically done. The didn’t feel the multiplayer was up to snuff just yet. Cheers to them for not releasing it incomplete. Past the break for a bit on the multiplayer. READ MORE

I just recently found out about Binary Domain and introduced it to you lovely readers. It takes place about 70 years from now, it had robots and androids, is super futuristic and looks super awesome. Will it be? Well I sure hope so. But the video below shows what looks to be some pretty kick ass squad based multiplayer action. Will it be up to the standard that we’re used to?

We can only hope, but most games that aren’t heavy multiplayer hitters tend to fail in that category. Tomorrow if you aren’t spending your entire day with the one you love, or some skank, you can download the demo for Binary Domain on your Playstation 3. The 15th on your Xbox 360′s. Released on February 28th for the Playstation 3, and Xbox 360. READ MORE
