Aliens: Colonial Marines is a follow-up to the 1992 film Alien 3. This is the story of the rescue team sent to search for the USS Sulaco and the team of marines, along with one civilian advisor, Ellen Ripley, that went missing 17 weeks prior to the game start.
This game recreates the look and feel of the 1986 film Aliens better than any other game in the franchise, because it specifically aimed to. The Aliens Versus Predator series, while amazing and astounding and highly enjoyable, always took you to places inspired by Hadley's Hope, Inspired, kinda sorta looks like, something that would exist in that world. I like expanding the universe and seeing things from it that weren't in the movies, BUT it was always my dream to return to Hadley's Hope, THE setting of Aliens. To explore it, to explore the Sulaco, I really did feel like I was back in that same place that I'd watched in a movie dozens of time since I was a kid. The main story is engaging enough, I liked the characters. O'Neal and Bella are standouts.
Critics knocked the game for bad enemy AI, which was apparently the result of a developer typo in the game scripting. There are 3rd party mods that fix this. I never really noticed it. I always found it challenging and fun. Game has nice variety, I never felt like I was doing exactly the same thing for too long. New xenomorph mutations that were a result of the radiation of the atmosphere generator exploding keep the enemy types varied. The MP maps are fun, just load them up and try to survive waves of enemies. This game is total wish fullfillment.
Michael Biehn and Lance Henriksen reprise their roles from Aliens, although Henriksen's Bishop is a different character to the orginal Bishop, although they are the same model android. During the game's creation 20 Century Fox said this new story was officially considered canon lore. After the game's poor critical reception and poor sales performance, Fox said this isn't canon. Lol. Canon is whatever you want.
loved this game but hated how glitchy online co op was also it irritated me that each different game modes whatever faction you played definitely played favorite and what i mean was certain play through was shorter and the other faction was longer to play which was stupid but regardless of that flaw in itself i still enjoyed the game and wished the game was bug free and could play it again but since its older than snot my copy for steam doesn't work and if GoG could fix its bug i would buy the game again and play it with my other friends who also enjoyed the game.
Crimson SkiesThe series is set within an alternate history of the 1930s invented by Weisman and McCoy. Within this divergent timeline, the United States has collapsed, and air travel has become the most popular mode of transportation in North America; as a result, air pirates thrive in the world of Crimson Skies. In describing the concept of Crimson Skies, Jordan Weisman stated he wanted to "take the idea of 16th century Caribbean piracy and translate into a 1930s American setting."Action Fantasy Historical Warfare

In the ensuing chaos, Tony sneaks to the front of the mansion, barely alive, and manages to escape in his car.

ManhuntManhunt is a third-person stealth horror game. The game consists of twenty levels, and four bonus levels that can be unlocked; the levels are referred to as "scenes". Players survive the Scenes by dispatching enemy gang members known as "Hunters", occasionally with firearms but primarily by stealthily executing them in gruesome, over-the-top ways.
The player is rated at the end of each level, primarily dependent on the gruesomeness of the killings and the speed of completion, from one (unimpressive) to five (extremely competent) stars. Executions are preferred in order to gain a higher score, thus encouraging players to play as viscerally as possible. The game's locales are full of "dark spots" and shadows where the player can hide while being chased by the Hunters; hiding in these dark areas makes the player invisible to opponents.Action Horror Thriller Stealth
