  • I wonder how they will handle having 300 enemies at once, gameplay-wise. I hope its not just 3/4 attacking you while the others mill aimlessly 20/30ft away.

    It would be interesting if the first 80% of the game (like the movie) was just falling back in various fun ways. Kind of like having levels with timelimits (the timelimit being the swarm of bugs), and having to do things to slow them down, or rescue people. I'm not sure its really possible to capture that 'oh shi' feel from the film with a regular 'go in and blast them' type mission.
