Despite my love for the film, I wasn't impressed with Aliens: Colonial Marines. It wasn't the worst game I've played, but it was far from the best. Now as I was looking through reviews on wikipedia, I noticed that Electronic Gaming Monthly had slapped a 9.0 on A:CM. So I had to share the surprising review of the game, considering the borderline hatred most other reviewers have given:

SUMMARY: Like most successful license-based games, Aliens: Colonial Marines is much more than a loving homage; it serves as one of the most robust story-driven co-op experiences to date. The concept definitely has room to grow, but as maiden voyages go, Colonial Marines is a clear winner.
THE GOOD: A modern Alien game that does much more than avoid being total crap.
THE BAD: AI teammates that seem to forget the alien menace must be obliterated.
THE UGLY: The cutscenes. Love-ya-mean-it, guys, but next time, can ya get Halo 4’s CG squad?

SCORE: 9.0
