It’s time for your regular “Colonial Marinesstill exists” story! Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford has claimed thatBorderlandsessentially halted production on the co-opAliensshooter, but that his team is able to really get to work on it now that the cel-shaded RPG/FPS hybrid is wrapped up.
“We have anAliensgame with Sega and 20th Century Fox which we’re really excited about,” shares Randy. “It’s the thing I’ve been stealing from all my career. Now I’m really working on it, but we’ve been quiet about that so far. Borderlands took over Gearbox. We had so much fun working on that and when we finished we wanted to carry on. And the DLC — we’ve launched two so far and there’s a third to come which take us to a new level in every way.”
Aliens vs. Predatordisappointed me greatly, but I’m not too let down knowing that anotherAliensgame is on the way, and from a studio that more than proved itself with Borderlands. I expect Gearbox to truly do theAliensfranchise justice and don’t anticipate being left down again. There will be murder if I am not satisfied.
