    As of right now it would have to be gifted from someone in the US / wherever else it's available. No UK release as of yet ( via Steam ).

    I would love to see Helloween ape some more Russian accents.

    Weyland's shotgun is hilarious.

    Luckily when I reached it I didn't have the smartgun so I just kited him around the statue. But seriously, what a ridiculously idiotic fight that was.

    Well I was thinking more along the lines of the T1000

    I mean, Weyland might as well have done the regenerating head wound thing.

    I have Steam but have never used it. Yet.

    I intend to change that this year, and what better way then to send Hello a game to LP?

    Is Metro 2033 available in Canada?

    What...The....Fuck? Was Bishop a load bearing random ass android dude? Why the hell did the thousands of years old temple start exploding when he died? Was it like a giant microwave and he had foil in his pocket?

    Did somebody at Rebellion write this script when they were 10 years old and then keep it all those years against the chance he would some day get to make an Aliens vs Predator game. Also this campaign had a disappointing amount of predator, it really should have been Black Guy vs Lance Hendrickson.

    Bishop wasn't really there, he was there "in spirit" through the android, probably a custom built one he could use to study the ruins and shit without being in danger of dying to aliens. He probably wired the place to explode upon the death of his android so that:

    A) The secrets of the temple would remain his alone and no one else's.
    B) He wanted his "murderers" to be crushed by falling rocks.
    C) Explosives are cool.

    That's my guess, which is just as likely as LOL MAGICZ in the thought processes of the devs.

    Actually there is barely any exposition. Shit just sort of happens and it suddenly dawns on you stuff that made no sense in the previous campaigns still makes no sense. It's just randomly caused by one the other two species doing something.

    Alright, I need to know now...

    IS anyone going to buy Metro 2033 for Helloween? Like, within the next day? Because if not, tomorrow at Noon PST, I'll buy it for him.

    Well, as close to noon PST as I learn his Steam ID. Anyone have it on hand?

    Wow, and I thought the acid blood was bad when it came to variable damage. Somehow the shotgun eclipses it. God, I'd hate to play the Marine campaign on any difficulty higher than normal. I'd probably end up biting the controller in half out of frustration.

    Looking forward to the commencement of the Alien campaign. I found it to be great fun scuttling around on the ceilings. But then I didn't mind the bargain basement storyline or the wallcrawling control scheme.

    Wait a minute. So our hero gets held at gunpoint by Weyland, who shows him the big fat W on his gun and then says he practically owns the corps. Weyland dies and our valiant hero proceeds to fly the fuck home in a shuttle that is very likely owned by Weyland-Yutani, without any security measures, a Drink-Lady with a living chestburster in her guts and the all-important gadget in easy reach of the badguys? o_O

    I would like to pause for a moment, to talk about my penis.
    My penis is like a toddler. A toddler—who is a perfectly normal size for his age—on a long road trip to what he thinks is Disney World. My penis is excited because he hasn’t been to Disney World in a long, long time, but remembers a time when he used to go every day. So now the penis toddler is constantly fidgeting, whining “Are we there yet? Are we there yet? How about now? Now? How about... now?”
    And Disney World is nowhere in sight.

    So does the whole stim thing ever get explained in the game? Or the reason why Weyland wants to know where the Xenomorphs homeworld is so bad?

    If not I have answers, at 7

    You'd think they'd have learnt by now. Every single expedition to capture aliens has wound up costing them tons of money, they've never gained anything useful from it and they apparently own the Marine corps anyway so it's not in their interest to make the Marine's redundant with xenomorph weaponry.

    Long story short Weyland-Yutani is actually a subsidiary of Activision.

    They probably want to make a Queen Mother their bitch. Which is... basically the biggest and baddest of Queen's on a planet.

    This is actually not true the whole "stim" thing that Helloween is fond of using is actually an extract from alien blood.

    In the future our steroids come from the blood of aliens, and yes they lead to body part regeneration. There was a book about it in the early 2000's or late 90's pretty sure thats what W-Y is up to.

    There was at least one graphic novel I read that had a drug refined from Alien Royal Jelly that was basically a super crazy steroid.

    *edit* I just remembered. It was called Xeno-Zip.

    Makes me wonder where the Yutani half of this corporation has been hiding all this time. Probably shorting his own stock thinking "My partner is a crazy man made of pure insanium mined straight from padded cell mountain, and any day now people are going to figure out what a complete sham our whole company is." Then the stock shoots up to like 2000 on the Space Nasdaq and he's kicking himself because he got out at 1000 and now he can't afford to have a bunch of load-bearing synthetics modeled after his likeness.

    Or something like that.

    Anyway, a fine finish Hello, even if by all appearances the marine campaign was aggressively mediocre. But good game or bad game, it'll be good to see Bruce back in action :D
