ALIENS: COLONIAL MARINES

Gearbox Software promised the world with Aliens: Colonial Marines, but as we all know very well by now, it was all little more than a bunch of hot air. The actual game was not even close to what was promised- it was, to put it bluntly, a complete mess. A confused and inconsistent narrative and terrible visuals were huge flaws, but the biggest flaw of them all was the laughably bad AI, which turned combat into a dull affair, and the terrifying Xenomorphs into mindless monsters running straight into your gunfire. Funnily enough, it was largely because of a typo in the game’s code- that tells you something about how royally Gearbox screwed it up with this game.
