Seems Legit.

Gearbox gets a pass this ONE TIME because of how awesome Borderlands 2 was. Duke Nukem Forever doesn't count!

If most of it was outsourced, it shouldn't have been advertised as their own game. Isn't that false advertising?

I don't want your excuses !!! I trusted you!  And now I missed out on the horrer game of the year.

Well, Gearbox does have a track record of making good games but I'm still iffy about wether this is legit or is acop out

Any chance we could have the text of the post without having to give reddit a page hit? I stopped using reddit entirely after the whole "defend pedophiles because of free speech" thing.

Hey, it happens to every dev.  You get pushed to your limits and need help which is sometimes good, sometimes bad.

Sounds like excuses to me. Why would they get the license and then just give it to someone else to work on with their name on it? It just sounds like they didn't care about working on it and decided to work on whatever they wanted even though Randy Pitchford was apparently talking up the game.

They should be ashamed of themselves. No excuses. Own up to your failures. You will gain more respect from gamers than blaming others. You would have at least earned my respect...

i blame the hype machine cause of its failure.. really i do i mean for months on months just how long did GI and others write up articles about this game. all to the day it comes out to tank it, i call that misleading obviously some editors held their breath and still hyped up the game needless to say an Aliens game is close to death from the moment it started im so glad i waited for the final reviews and when i saw the number i concluded that indeed. GI and IGN are in coohoots somehow cause they both wrote up "its going to be awesome articles" about this game it sunked faster than Naughty Bear.

GI look your job is too hype up games and get customers back into your stores admit this cause im beginning to see a whole lot of misguided hints that the truth is only held back until release day.

I was looking forward to this game ;_;

Here we go again, someone else who "claims" they worked on the game and know all there is to know about it. I wouldn't trust this guys word over some random person I pass in the street. Only people I would trust are current employees of Gearbox. Until they start talking about it, this is all bollocks.

This is why I don't buy Gearbox games. Blame it on another developer even though your name was the main developer associated with the project. Who did all those dev diaries? Gearbox. Who made this piece of ****? Gearbox. ****ing morons.

I don think Gearbox should get a pass on this one whether they outsourced or not. They seem like a really hit or miss developer. They will release great games like the Bordrerlands 1 and 2, but then turn around and realeased total garbage like Aliens and Duke Nukem. No consistency. I want a developer that I can trust. And Pitchford needs to address this without making any exscuses since he has hyped this game up so much. I know it's his job to do that but he also had to take responsibility for games when they fail, especially as bad as Aliens did.

*** stupid as ***. Gearbox knew it was a pile of ***, but created a false demo for testers to play and told a bunch of *** lies to us all.. *** Gearbox and TG alike. Boycotting all your games because you obviously don't give a *** about anything but profit.

Yea know the only quality titles I have seen gearbox release are the borderlands games, which are awesome. However i don't know of any other good games they have released. I don't really care esp. cause I don't know what went wrong. I can't really learn from this. They need to though.

I've seen Bethesda catch 100% more *** for PS3 issues than this is getting. Gearbox has a track record of terrible games. Borderlands is the only game they genuinely made that is worth a look, yet everyone is like "oh its ok Gearbox, you made Borderlands so that absolves you from any negative comments". This just wasn't a terrible port over. It was an absolute failure. THQ had better games than Gearbox and made terrible decisions and it put them out of business. Im sorry but I payed Borderlands and it was a good game, but it wasn't amazing. People need to open their eyes and see Gearbox for what they really are.

its still not an excuse to make a bad quality title, "oh lets just focus on borderlands and forget the other games"  so what, take time, or hire more people to help make sure that games do not end up like that Duke Nukem game or Colonial Marines
