Perhaps The Best Entry In The Entire Franchise. I Loved Every Second


What an experience.

You step in and can take it seriously right away. As though you're there. And then you find out little secrets, you feel the tension of what is about to happen, and then, and thennnnn it all goes wrong and you know it's just getting started.

Creeping through the med lab was one of the most game experiences I've ever had.

And just when I thought it couldn't get any better, the horror of finding an area where you no longer can tell where danger might be coming from. Literally from all sides at any time, and it's brilliant.

I hope, they make more like this, because this was a world class experience.

Yeah I think it's a great sequel. It captures the same vibe as the original and seeing Seegson as an alternate to Weyland Yutani was interesting.

It is better than all movies done after Aliens and truer to the original spirit. It is funny how a game can be better written than a high budgeted Hollywood movie. But the writer is not a random guy, it is Dan Abnett. I mean, I never read anything from him (yet) and I'm not into comics and Warhammer 40k, but even I know his name. People say that he wrote some really good Warhammer 40k novelizations.
