Tucked away within the season finale of Jace Hall's studio-hopping web show

was the first video of Gearbox's sci-fi shooter Aliens: Colonial Marines, which was penned by Battlestar Galactica writers and hits PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 next year.

The footage continues Hall's tradition of providing the first video of anticipated titles in brief off-screen snippets, as seen by the Duke Nukem Forever footage in the premiere.

Does anyone else here miss the Predator portion of the old AvP game more than the Marines portion? That was back before the cheesy movies, and the game told a better story if you ask me.

The laugh as you speared someone in the head with the sniper-spear-gun... the vision modes, the camo, the healing knives. You owned the humans so easily but still had a hard time with aliens.

No Predator campaign and no Alien campaign, right? I guess I can live with that. The Marine campaign was the best anyways, even if the other two campaigns were badass in their own right. What makes me go "hmm" though is the pistol and the motion sensor in one scene, and no motion sensor and a rifle in another.

If the motion sensor has the same impact as it did in AVP where a series of beep beep beeps was enough for me to empty clips into the darkness in a blind panic, then this might be a move similar to only being able to use a flashlight with the pistol in Doom 3.

On the other hand, AVP was such an incredibly awesome game that if this game is even a third as good, it'll still be a great title.

Speaking of which, how does AVP run on modern XP systems?

Little worrying how quickly that xenomorph died. I'm hoping their pretty hard to kill so you have to concentrate fire as a team and not like alien swarm where the aliens die from a hit.

While I like Aliens, hasn't it already been exhausted as a video game. I mean, other than the rifle model and the hand held motion detection system, this video could have been made in Halo.

Wtf I think that was the most painfully short video I have ever seen. Ok, I saw:

a Pulse Rifle
a Pistol and Motion Tracker (cool)
an Alien running up the wall onto the ceiling (cool)
acid blood (green)
standard bulkhead environment (I hope this opens up, no more doom3 hallway crawlers, plz)

I need more! SMART guns, explosives, Flame throwers, head crabs (oops I mean face suckers) and a bunch of Liabilities who you know are going to freak out when the shit hits the fan and endanger the mission. Show me MORE!
