SEGA and Gearbox are showing off the new Escape game mode for Aliens: Colonial Marines. Four Marines versus four aliens - a spitter, a melee class, and one with speed. Sound familiar? Yep. Sound fun? Yep. Check it out.

Hehe, Gloom was inspired by Aliens and offered fully asymmetric aliens vs marine gameplay. Would be nice if I could say it came full circle, but this is more L4D.

I'm a bit sad since Gloom and derivatives (Tremulous and Natural Selection) have some of the most addictive RTS/FPS hybrid multiplayer. Still, looks pretty good.

Played it this weekend. It's prety good; the trailers had me worried about the quality of the animation (typical Gearbox), but it was pretty solid. Most popular game at the expo, I think.
