Aliens: Colonial Marines Shows Off “Survivor” Mode

Let’s take a couple minutes to watch some Colonial Marines get chewed up and spat out!

I’m starting to have some serious questions about this whole “state of the bad-ass art” thing. It always seems to end the same way for these guys: running around, screaming like little girlies and eventually, an ignominious wipeout at the hands of overgrown earwigs. Maybe it’s just an LV-426 thing, but I’m starting to wonder if I’d have better luck with the Orkin Man.

The “Survivor” multiplayer mode in the upcoming Aliens: Colonial Marines may be “all new,” and yet it really isn’t, is it? Use a handheld torch to seal this door, use your jumper cables to open that door, count down the meters on your beep-box, and then plenty of gunfire punctuated by occasional moments of blunt force decapitation. Not that that doesn’t sound like a good time, but haven’t I seen this before?

Aliens: Colonial Marines comes out on February 12, 2013, for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii U and PC.
