Don't get me wrong, it's not the best game, and it takes itself far too seriously sometimes, but if you want to just sit back and shoot some xenos, this is the game to do it in. Janky as all hell, with the dumbest Alien

Aliens: Colonial Marines is a first person shooter that supports 4 player coop gameplay. This game world is larger than the earlier AVP. Colonial Marines is more oriented towards eliminating aliens which are abundant.

Still an abhorent mess of a game filled with game breaking bugs, suicidal AI and the most boring story for such a beloved franchise. Sorry please check out Dark Descent or Isolation instead. This is not the Alien game

If your willing to get the Stasis Interrupted (Campaign Expansion) & Bug Hunt (Horde Mode) DLC's alongside the TemplarGFX Overhaul Mod, it turns ALIENS: CM into at best a 5/10 game into a solid 7/10. Wait for a sale, do

I've got to say I enjoyed this game a lot, my friend recommended it to me when it was on discount. It's pretty fun when playing with friends, and I guess playing solo is also good. Overall just a solid game.
