Shouldn't all this discussion (more than 5 pages now) about how good or bad a video-game was move in a OT thread?

Once again. I can't site something specific because the ENTIRE GAME is ****ing ****. From the first minute, I knew it would be ****. But I played it anyway. And everysecond after...was total ****. **** that game.

Hicks alive is the worst thing ever thought up by a person. It played like a 13 year old's crappy **** fan fiction.
Even better: it played like Randy Pitchford's crappy **** fan fiction. 
They were so high on themselves, acting like they did the fans a favor by negating the events of Alien 3. Like that movie or not, it's a much better alternative to Colonial Marines.

I think the "hicks is alive" route could have been fairly compelling. It doesn't contradict anything established in the first 3 films (I don't count "insurrection" or the AVP garbage) and is a workable plot device. Aliens: Colonial Marines started off on the right path. I agree that, on its way to release, it quickly veered into the realm of unacceptable. However, I don't think its close to the low-point of the franchise. As has been mentioned, if one goes in with diminished expectations and focuses on the fact that he/she is lighting up aliens w a pulse rifle, a modicum of fun can be had with A:CM. Nonetheless, the die hard alien fans were scammed regarding the way the game was delivered to them (sold a bill of goods etc). IMO, Aliens: "insurrection" and the AVP films were all greater blemishes on the franchise than the recent video game.

They didn't even explain the whole ordeal either, did they? "We switched Hicks' body with some random guy, but must have missed Ripley sleeping 5 feet away from him".Even better: it played like Randy Pitchford's crappy **** fan fiction.

Most well-made film in the franchise after Alien.I hate Alien 3 a lot and even I will agree that Alien 3 is a lot better than Colonial Marines
Randy tweeted this last night:
'@NECA_TOYS: Next year We'll be celebrating a big anniversary of one of the best films ever made. Expect a teaser tomorrow night. #meow'
Ripley with Jones?

Well Batman Returns is good but not one of the best films ever. Sounds like Jonessey w Liutenant Ripley YES

More likely Jones with the reworked Alien. I would be floored if they were doing a Ripley.

You and me both.
Unless Sigourney had some change of heart, I can't see that. I'll take Jones, though.
Randy just posted a pic of a Nostromo diorama with the cat carrier. I bet they have Ripley like last year was Dutch.

Looks like a Nostromo dio, a Rambo mineshaft dio, a Predator final battle 2 pack dio (probably with a 2 pack exclusive dutch) and also small dios for each of the Kenner Preds. Not sure what all the stuff in the case to the left is. Looks like a really big wooded area type dio. You can also see a 1/4th Dutch. Also, you can see the cat in the case to the right that gets cut off in the picture. There's a tag that says "Aliens" right next to the cat. What could they put there? Maybe the Genocide 2 pack and the new marine? We'll see..

They're gonna confuse matters by having all these dioramas which they probably aren't releasing as a commercial product and the P2 trophy wall, which they did release, all displayed together.
