I guess what you mean is that it's a parody of a bad slasher film, because the best slashers had likable characters and weren't deliberately written to be stale tropes.

Been playing the hell out of RE2 remake and a lot of people ask about games that have an unstoppable force like Mr. X and I always mention Alien: Isolation. But it got me to thinking since I'd really dig a new Alien video game (and not one on a phone). How about a real survival horror approach set on a ship or something tight like the Raccoon City PD building? Instead of hiding all the time, you gather lab keys, codes, weapons and parts to gradually unlock the ship but make it where you can still fight a bit? Face huggers, xenos in various stages of maturity...maybe add some androids or something. Throw in the resource management, upgrades, scarce equipment, strategy and a boss or 3 like the queena. Not a FPS/Doom approach like we've had with a few Alien games but something in the spirit and in the vein of what Capcom pulled off where you CAN fight but your pulse is always pounding. Have it where when acid gets on you too much you lose inventory slots or your weapons, items and armor degrade. Do stuff with lighting and power switches that make being able to see things essential. Then design the levels in a really tight way like RE2. I guess I want RE2 with Aliens instead of zombies is what I'm saying.

One thing I really like about RE2 is that you kill probably like 30 zombies in it, tops.

So we were talking a bit about a potential Alien TV series being a thing in the works and now it seems like this might be Hulu series produced by Ridley Scott. The speculation is that it will be like American Horror Story or Fargo where each season is in a different time period or/and a different cast of characters. https://hnentertainment.co/exclusive-two-live-action-alien-series-are-in-the-works-and-ridley-scott-is-producing-one-at-hulu/ BiggerBoat posted:Been playing the hell out of RE2 remake and a lot of people ask about games that have an unstoppable force like Mr. X and I always mention Alien: Isolation.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:One thing I really like about RE2 is that you kill probably like 30 zombies in it, tops. Hell yeah. The remake is amazing with this too because the gore and durability of the zombies is like House of the Dead 2 caliber. Like you can shoot their limbs off and cave parts of their face in and it won't even really phase them, and you can even literally blow them in half then come back to that room hours later and the same zombie will start crawling towards you again. It's insanely good and they made the atmosphere of the game way more of a horror action thing than the original RE2 was. IIRC the PSX Alien Resurrection game started out like this (and it's still a good game with some slow burn parts IMO, and one of the best looking PSX games with some impressive lighting). But they instead tried to make it more actiony with noticeably worse looking aliens than in older shots of it so they could get more on screen at once. Alien is a series that begs for an RE2 kind of game though where the scope is more limited but super detailed. I mean the super detailed-ness of Alien and Aliens is like half the appeal.

Shoot them once in the face and run past them (it is the only way to make Mr. X threatening later), or hobble them by taking out a leg and make them useless, while using less ammo in general. BiggerBoat posted:Been playing the hell out of RE2 remake and a lot of people ask about games that have an unstoppable force like Mr. X More like my fun tag buddy. I complained about the rubbebanding and silly B.S. teleporting the Alien does in Isolation, but then you have Mr. X, who is just a giant joke who you can just trick to stay on the other side of the map and not worry about him at all. I wonder if there's a way to find happy medium between the two. I've watched a couple of people play Five Nights at Xenos but not yet anyone that bothered to finish it. It at least seemed kind of interesting for that genre, especially since it's a slight callback to the C64 game (which no Youtubers seem to know the existence of). edit: What am I thinking; Jack in RE7 was actually legit scary at first because he *could* be faster than you but didn't cheat as much as the Alien, so they already found the medium.

With literally decades of licensed hunting simulators having been created, I'm legit surprised nobody ever made a straight up Predator simulator. And I'm not talking about concrete jungle, I'm talking about a game that casts you as the Predator and sets you in a map and scores you on execution of your hunt. Like a cross between one of those Cabella games and Hitman. I don't need a story, just give me a bunch of maps based on the franchise.

I think part of it is how close you can cut it with the xenomorph's not very good peripheral vision. This recent playthrough was perfect alien behavior wise, it really clicked. And I think I do prefer something along the lines of Isolation to Mr. X overall. The rubberbanding never felt forced to me though. There are few people left on the station and you're the one making noise repairing stuff and messing with the machinery. Jackis simpler to figure out but once you learn its quirks the alien is pretty fair itself. I noticed that about the old Alien computer game too. I was very surprised that like no article about this new one brought it up.

Like a cross between one of those Cabella games and Hitman. I don't need a story, just give me a bunch of maps based on the franchise. I made a too long post about this a while ago but that's like my dream Predator game. Like you fly around Earth (or a space colony or something if it's in AvP times I guess I don't know) from your main ship and scope out the biggest badass killers in the region and then hunt them down. And like Hitman have points for being noticed/how you go about killing them/not letting any of your tech get destroyed/fall into human hands and how many skulls you collect. Like even make it so if you just blast everyone from long range it runs a high chance of blowing their body apart such that the skull is fractured so it's not worth as much so you have to sneak and get up close to get maximum honor from your buddies. The targets can of course include all the main characters from every movie and then like the final endgame missions are some combination of Arnold/Gary Busey/etc. and then you leave to return home but oh poo poo Danny Glover is ON YOUR SHIP. In Blood Money you had to do stuff like spend money on fake IDs and new identities in between missions if you were spotted in the last one, otherwise security would be higher in the next mission. In this game you could do something sort of like that but it would be like since you hosed up maybe there's more guard or maybe like the other Predators make you go out with shittier gear to prove yourself worthy again or something like that. Ideally instead of one predator with a variety of equipment there'd be a ship with several predators on it and each would have their own differently styled weapons and equipment to choose from so you could give the predators personality without wasting time having lots of cutscenes or revealing too much about them. Instead we got Concrete Jungle and.....the Predator 1 and Predator 2 games that we did get which are insanely bad. Neo Rasa fucked around with this message at 06:19 on Feb 14, 2019 |

I still think my favorite Alien game thing was the level in AvP Gold where they dumped you into a recreation of the Nostromo as an alien, populated it with NPC’s and was basically like “okay go be Alien as hell.”

The Predator was kind of like, awesome but also a little too easy because you're the Predator with the Predator's equipment fighting FPS enemies from 1999. The coolest thing about being the Alien was the mobility and speed in that game, it was completely unprecedented and not even the later AvP games let it be that fast. I loved hanging off the eve and archway or whatever and dropping onto people as they walked under it and the animations of people freaking out when they see you and stuff. Great soundtrack too that took a lot from Alien, Alien 3, and Predator 2.

Newest rumoring regarding the Alien series is that it's an animated mini-series based on Isolation: https://observer.com/2019/02/alien-isolation-series-disney-fox-sale-box-office/ This would line up with the prior rumors about there being two different series being in development if one of them is a one-off kind of thing like this.

The standout there for me is that Jason Miller as Dallas would have been amazing. Nothing against the actual cast of course which is itself amazing and lightning in a bottle. Tom Conti as Ash would have been a hilarious disaster.

Jason Miller deserved a better acting career, although it seems like maybe he just preferred theater, he certainly spent a lot of time there. I'd have loved to see him get one more of those iconic memorable roles like with Father Karras, maybe a role in Alien would've done that. His wiki page says that he turned down the lead in Taxi Driver.

DropsySufferer posted:What is the writing quality for this book like? The premise for the book sounded extremely good so I’m interested. It's fantastic. You have a great conflict between two central and rapidly different characters, and watching them butt heads in the chaos is really something else. Xenomrph posted:Hicks and Newt survived in the original ‘Aliens’ sequel comics, and Ripley is nowhere to be found (at least until volume 3). Also the Xeno gets to earth and in the midst of a corporate cold war gets loose and obliterates the entire loving planet. Hicks and Newt manage to escape on a ship routed for a remote military base where a general is trying to train the xenos into soldiers to retake earth. it's loving amazing and the fact that it didn't wind up Alien 3 is a travesty. Honestly, making Cold Forge and then Outbreak & Nightmare Asylum the third and fourth movies would have been a far better series than where we're at now.
