The big, green gooey eggs containing Sega's long in development
Aliens: Colonial Marines and
Aliens RPG are going to hatch -- just not soon. When we asked why the games were absent from this year's E3, Sega replied, "
Aliens vs. Predator will be the first to ship out of our triplet of
Aliens titles; hence it was shown at this year's E3. We'll have more news to share about the other two games in the near future so stay tuned." Rumors of both titles being jettisoned out an airlock have been swirling
since earlier this year.
In addition, Gearbox Software prez Randy Pitchford has confirmed to
Kotaku that
Colonial Marines lives on in now-gen console and handheld form on DS. Pitchford told the site that Gearbox is not developing the portable title, lending more credence to
purported footage of a WayForward-developed
Colonial Marines that leapt out of the darkness last month. We've put word into Obsidian, developers of
Aliens RPG, for confirmation of that title's status.
