http://www.computerandvideogames.com/300998/news/new-alien-game-confirmed-for-console-will-be-peer-to-dead-space-2-sega/
Quote: | Sega has confirmed to CVG that Total War studio Creative Assembly IS making a new Alien game - and that it hopes the title will be a "peer to Dead Space 2".
Neither the studio or publisher would be drawn on confirming a genre for the game, and wouldn't say if it was a strategy title - the category Creative Assembly is best known for.
However, CA did confirm to CVG that the game would be making its way to "console", but didn't specify formats.
Creative director Mike Simpson said that he'd been given the directive to win awards by Sega, but wasn't overly pressured because "we like winning awards". Class in a glass.
"This is very much a triple-A project," Sega West boss Mike Hayes added. "We want this to be a peer to the likes of Dead Space 2."
CA is now hiring to ramp up production on the title, and wants to take its staff from 160 people to 200 in a matter of months. The studio is famed for its multi-award winning Total War series on PC.
Meanwhile, Sega is thought to be readying another Alien title in Alien: Colonial Marines, which is being developed by Duke Nukem Forever studio Gearbox in the US. We expect to see more on that one at E3 next month.
Government Minister Ed Vaizey let slip that CA was working on an Alien game earlier today on his Twitter account. |
Is Aliens: Colonial Marines dead?
And will this be released on the PC? 
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."

The article says "consoles", but that doesn't say much..

They did that Spartan: Total Warrior console hack n slash game a few years back (which had its moments but was mostly meh). I imagine this is something similar - another console only action game to see if they can actually manage anything other than TW games.

Their last console game was Stormrise, no? I wouldn't get so excited.

re-imagining a beloved IP...
John Sonic is an Ex-Navy SEAL who shed blood for his country for 15 years, his hopes for a quiet family life are shattered after his wife and daughter are kidnapped by his old adversary Ivo Mahmood Robotnikov, a Russo-Arab arch-terrorist.
Now he has 48 hours to rescue his family and stop his old nemesis from blowing up Capitol Hill.
May God have mercy on those who stand in Sonic's way.

Pretty interesting revelations if true. Amongst them:
Quote: | we are making the new alien game with creative asembly who make total war. That game looks amazing. Very dark, very slow paced (in a good way). The textures and lighting look really really good. I've seen it running on a PC. The PS4 devkit looks like a computer. It looks as good rif not better running as any super high end pc. We did not have those controllers, but they look like what was promised. |

The AMA has been deleted and judging by that plus some answers, I somehow doubt the legitimacy of the poster.

Yup, the Borderlands thing blew his act since BL was released in 2009 and Gearbox got the contract for ACM in 2006. Maybe Sega has a timemachine  |
He deleted his posts, not the mods. The mods posted that the info he sent them verifies he was a tester. Perhaps he is a good faker though..
About the Borderlands thing. Borderlands was announced in 2007, and they showed footage they had already developed.
ACM was announced in 2006, with no footage because the game hadn't entered production yet.

Another tester's story: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=47805600&postcount=236
Quote: | This makes sense. I had experience working with the game in the summer, capturing footage at Sega QA. Getting the footage was a mess, there was a lot to fix. A LOT of dodgy/missing animations, shoulder lights randomly turning off, characters always staring DIRECTLY INTO THE CAMERA (you can see how thats a pretty big issue), characters guns not syncing up with their current pose, limbs going crazy when guns were swapped, GUNS AND CHARACTER MODELS MISSING FROM THE BUILD THAT THE TRAILER WAS SPECIFICALLY ADVERTISING, etc etc.
Over the month or so the project ran, multiple times lists were sent to Gearbox to fix what really should have been basic stuff, and every time a new build came back the changes were minimal. I'm surprised the trailer came out as well as it did all things considered.
Saying all this, I also didn't think the game would turn out too bad. The gunplay felt solid and I really liked the lighting. It was also Summer so it seemed like there was enough time to get the game in a good place. I also thought the main menu was sick. |

The failure of ACM is probably best thing that could ever happen to Creative Assembly. Since their main competitor has commited public suicide - they are the only ones who can save the Alien/s franchise (although I fully recoginze only the first movie).

or the worst thing
this puts more pressure on the money to be more involved and force things outside design scope to safer generic territory, and potentially make a good game shit

The failure of ACM will make SEGA push this game into "generic territory"? Is ACM now considered an experimental game? (I mean, it's so bad, it's almost an experiment).

The PS4 mention seems legit. From 2012: http://www.computerandvideogames.com/346305/creative-assemblys-alien-game-coming-to-future-generation-consoles/
Quote: | Creative Assembly's Alien game coming to 'future generation consoles'
As well as current ones, according to a job advert for a multiplayer programmer. |
