Marcus Antonius:
And Caesar’s spirit, raging for revenge,
With Ate by his side come hot from hell,
Shall in these confines with a monarch’s voice
Cry “Havoc!” and let slip the dogs of war,
That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
With carrion men, groaning for burial.

Julius Caesar Act 3, scene 1, 270–275

In space no one can hear you sue. After all the bad press, horrendously negative feedback and legal shenanigans, I decided to pick up Aliens: Colonial Marines anyway. I love the Aliens universe and I got the game very heavily discounted. Three hours into the single player campaign, I so far feel I got my money’s worth.

I have gotten some scares, some challenging levels and even a chuckle or too at the use of the Aliens canon. If you held off on getting Colonial Marines like I did but are still kinda sorta curious, now may be as good a time as any to pick it up…discounted, of course. Tell them Gus sent you. And then after they ask “Who?” you can ask if the game is still discounted.

Ultimately, not a bad way to spend a few dollars and a few hours waiting for one of the biggest PC releases of the year…

A half-dragon’s work is never done.

Trying to save my father’s kingdom from the greed and ineptitude of my step-siblings has proven quite the task. Here I’m slugging it out with one of them on an island filled with valuable…stuff. Every territory I conquer brings me one step closer to crushing the insurgency and unifying the kingdom. Here my airships close in on the enemy’s forces. My ground troops follow behind as we prepare to punish them for aligning with the wrong side. Soon it will be done.

Space Hulk

Suffer not the unclean to live.
Lead us from death to victory,
from falsehood to truth.
Lead us from despair to hope,
from faith to slaughter.
Lead us to His strength and an eternity of war.
Let His wrath fill our hearts.
Death, war and blood;
in vengeance we serve the Emperor
in the name of the Primarch!
In the name of Sanguinius!
