Sega online administrator Clumsyorchid announced this via a message on the Sega forums. The message is as follows.

“I’ve just received a mail this AM regarding patches for the console versions of AVP and I regret to inform everyone that these have sadly been scrapped.”

“I had previously made a claim that these were coming and at the time, this was very much on the table. For the console community, I apologize, as I know there are many features and updates that you’d like to see. I’ll keep fighting internally for this to happen, but until I hear otherwise, there will not be a console patch for either Xbox or PS3.”

On the patches for the PC versions, he said, “I have heard nothing on PC patches and would not assume there will be any changes unless stated otherwise.”

Despite its poor review showings, and let’s be honest, out right bashing; Aliens vs Predator has been doing really well. Well, at least on one island in particular. (I am talking about the U.K.) Yes AvP is now the number one fastest selling game this year. At least according to this twitter from Sega of Europe:

“News just in; AvP is the fastest selling game this year and also no.1 in the all-formats chart here in the UK.“

Take particular not again of a key phrase. ‘This year’ So no, not all time. Yet it still beat out Mass Effect 2. Guess the English (with a big E) don’t like space marines….. Oh, wait.
