No, Sire.

Shows. :P

Let me reiterate what I had posted before:

The first 2 movies from the Alien franchise is kick-ass! The first one that started it all - Alien was directed by Sir Ridley Scott that came out in 1979, who is also in charge of the prequel to the original movie he had directed - Prometheus (arrives this June 8, and the movie has been hyped on all levels so watch out for this one). 8 years later, the sequel - Aliens was out, directed by James Cameron. The primary protagonist of the series is a female character Ellen Ripley played by Sigourney Weaver. Her acting was exceptional in the first two movies coming from a female lead character. The original movie bagged an Oscar for the best vfx and Aliens garnered two for vfx and sound editing. The second one has more action than the first which is primarily a space-fiction horror movie like Event Horizon. The third one was a complete downer which was directed by David Fincher but then again that was his directorial debut and hell, a fourth one was also out Alien: Resurrection that sucked completely on all fronts.

If you haven't watched them yet, it isn't too late!
 
^True first two alien movies were awesome,The first one was by Ridley Scott and he was going to direct the second one but the company gave it to jim cameron instead which was a good move,Jim did excellent job with it.Since then Ridley Scott didn't get his hands on that project until recently for Prometheus 2012 which was a good enough movie,Better than the Alien 3 and 4.There will be a next part for Prometheus which will continue the prequel story.
 
Is it out already? SWEET! I was told there is a LAN mode, so co-op should be simple. I'm in for the test run. If all goes well, we'll start it this weekend.
 
Looks like the SP campaign is fcuked up. The co-op mode should be decent. At least in the movie it was with Hicks, Hudson (Game over man, game over! xD), Vasquez, Drake and Apone.

Ethan_Hunt & Co. - How many peeps for the co-op? Mind if I join? Any idea how many players are supported?

Edit: Wiki says its 4 so looks like you guys are set. Let me see if Aman and Kauzy are free.
 
@Gannu: Get the game. Join me and Sam for the testing session and let's see if we can work this out.

Sounds good to me. Let me know over Skype on how to set it up using Tunngle or whatever. /noob alert :ashamed:
 
Noob? We have done this before, haven't we? or did your forget your Skype ID? :P

Good question! I forgot that as well - shall recover it. I only use Skype during co-op. :ashamed:

I was referring to Tunngle or Hamachi set up. Don't have a clue!
