I've cancelled my preorder for now and will see how the Wii U version is before deciding to get it. It wasn't a game that I was particularly hyped or excited about anyway.

I never saw the attraction to the game. In my opinion, it has always looked awful from the trailers, so it is no surprise with the reviews.

I doubt they'd can a Wii U version though. If anyway, they'd stop developing the U version and decide not to implement much use of the game pad. But if the game is really as bad as people say, then they'll want to recuperate their money ASAP... so yeah, I think we'll see a U version, just it probably won't make much use of the gamepad.


Or they could completely redevelop it for the Wii U, like Ninja Gaiden did.

was going to buy this game but after the Reviews ill pass or if they make it better for Wii U!

It looks like a bad game, why don't you guys just spend that money towards another game? if it is ever released for the Wii U of course. Or wait for a price drop

i have now cancelled my pre order for the wii u version so utterly dissapointed they botched this game so badly shame on gearbox for outsourcing such an important title reflects very badly on them especially after the whole duke nukem situation i'd hope they would think twice before doing this kind of cheap cash in again.

who ever made this game lost there nerve some where down line when the making of this title. The game, to replicate the film styles should have always been a survival horror, atmospheric, andtence! I think we were all expecting that, but its really more like an arcade, alien blast fest, a half assed film tie in.
Maybe making a game where there are less enemys but succeds in keeping our attention through anticipation and atmosphere is a very hard thing to do! I could imagine after a year of making it, playing it every day, getting board and saying, "MORE ALIENS, WE NEED MORE TO SHOOT AT", thus ruining a game that could have been great.

Lets be fair here. It is based more on Aliens which is much more of an action film than the original. I think having more of an "alien blast fest" style does fit in with the film to an extent. But i do understand what youre saying. The Alien films are full of ideas that would be great in video games, but so far no one has managed to use these ideas properly.

i read a recent report today that the wiiU version is the 'beast of game version' we were always expecting. im sure youve seen the demo vs 360/ps3/pc versions out now? how awesome the demo looked compared to the actual released version?? well, rumour has it..that demo version was of the wiiU gameplay...apparently the ps3/360/pc got a last minute 'port' due to lack of wiiU sales..this was to make up on the amount gone into the wiiU VERSION...AND EVEN IF IT SELLS WELL ON WIIU, THERE ISN'T A BIG ENOUGH USER-BASE TO BRING IN PROFITS. SO (sorry for caps, hadn't realised i hit the button lol, now i can't be bothered retyping that bit..i'd rather waste more time explaining my use of caps) now back to it......So, i do think the wiiU version will be out by the end of march...and hopefully....fingers crossed, it's better than that 'demo version' - which was sick! ...so, there is still hope yet.

i will deffo wait for wiiU reviews and youtube gameplay footage before i buy though. just incase this was all a load of bull carp..and the wiiU is just as bad

I was thinking this same thing..... so this could be huge for Wii U / Nintendo if the version for it has everything that was wrong with the current release, fixed. IE: graphics, some gameplay and other stuff... Wowzers...

Cancelled my pre order too after i decided to rent it on the 360 when it first came out it was the biggest pile of cack I've played in a while what a total let down I mean the AI on it was hopeless I was expecting something like dead space but it's your bog standard run and gun game then you have the fact there's no limit on how many weapons you can carry and your like indestructible I mean one Xeno morph should be really tough to take on but I was banishing waves of them with ease it wasn't as if they even jumped out on me from time to time or tried to out wit me they just ran in front of me so i dispatched them with ease I haven't been this dissapointed about a game since rage I can't stress how much this game is one big turd lol and come on guys you can't polish a turd lol we can hold out hope the wii u version will be far superior which it would have to be for me to play it but I reckon it needs another year to correct the mistakes because the AI has to be completely stripped out and done from scratch I don't usually moan this much about a game but that says how dissapointed I am with this I can't believe with four years of development this is the piece of crap they produced I would avoid this game on the wii u till at least it gets a review.

Guys a leak came out and sega hunt down this tester while ago, they removed all his posts... read it before they remove it.

Spoiler

That made me a bit ungry, it happened in the past. It also speaks about wii U the most horrible version!
