so apparently there was a sequel to the movie that i didn't know happened that is out on dvd now I heard it was an awfully bad film! And I didn't like the first one too much, neither.

Hope the game is better than that Stupid movie.
Here's the plot:
Giant bugs are running rampage are huge rocks that no one lives on anyhow.
So... they send in a bunch of trooops that are out numbered and under gunned, let them get wipped out, then send in more guys, too little with not enough ammo, ect. Till there all dead.
Dumb movie.

The giant bugs were threatening Humankind's survival. :p
I liked the first move. As I've said before: I go see movies to be entertained. It was entertaining. I'm happy.

I figured for an intergalatic Army, there Generals would have figured out years ago that they needed to resort to some sort of better fire power...
...that an needed to use more men, or...
...better yet, Nuke the damn planet! The movie could have been done in 5 seconds that way. See I could make movies, I've got the gift!

The thing is there would still be hippies in the future saying giant bug aliens are people too. Unless you bomb them first.

Well, I dop have to say, whats more bad-assed than jumping on the back of a 20-story long bug, blowing a hole in its back with a machine gun, then blowing it up with a mini-nuke?
I hope you canm do that in teh game! :D

If you guys watched the star ship troopers computer animated show that was on a while back, you woudl prolly have a lot more respect for the franchise and the story behind it all... The book was very good too btw... never saw the second movie, but i wanna see it now haha... game looks sweeet too

Yeah I used to watch that in the morning sometimes and I have to agree with you, it was very well done. I also liked the first movie and I too never saw the 2nd movie....

That game looks awesome. I must have it...I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, but the book was better. I want to see the second one. Hopefull this game is better than "Terran Ascendancy". I heard it sucked. The Starship Troopers TC for Duke Nukem is pretty fun.

The game looks pretty sweet. The movies I wasn't to fond of. Well I only saw the first one, but I didn't like it. But the graphics in the game look great.

Bug Hunt! :D

I think that the best alike for these things is Alien and everything related to it. Aliens versus predator (the game), and stuff like that.
Now THAT stuff I liked very much.

Nah, Alien and Predator are highly-overrated franchises. The games were awful. But Aliens was a very good film. Better than the first, and the regrettable third and fourth installments that followed...*shudder*
But yeah, a bug hunt sounds great. The first movie was bad, but in a good way. If you know that I mean. It wasn't supposed to be serious; people who say it's a terrible movie don't know that. It would have been better if Tristar had stuck closer to the novel, though. I wanted to see Marauder power suits. One Federation soldier could take on a hundred Bugs in one of those. :D Hopefully you can use them in this new, msyterious game...what is it called even? I must seek more answers...

The way it's going, all you can really hope for is some lame run-of-the-mill CGI and standard special effects, i.e. lots of gratuitous death, explosions, et cetera. :D The humans aren't even cool! They should have put in the Colonial Marines from the second movie. Smartguns rule. Hollywood needs to stop with the franchise-meets-franchise films. When will they learn? *crazy* It'll be like that Wes Craven movie where the movie bad guys kill off all the cast and crew.

HeThe ALien films were all good IMO. The AVP movie better not suck. You'll never guess what I found in town. A new furniture shop just opened and it had a few life size replicas of film stars made from meta parts. Next to a C3Po replica I saw an unmasked predator model.It must have been 8 feet tall becasue it looked so damn huge.:D

By the way, the AVP games didn't suck.

I didn't like the 3rd Alien movie as it didn't introduce anything new and I missed the marines vs aliens action of the 2nd movie and they killed off Hicks. :/

I never saw the second one. It's crazy. You can't judge a book by its cover though. Going through a game a hunting only 1 type of enemy gets pretty lame sooner or later.

Well you HAVE to see the second film. It'sMarines vs Aliens with guns all the way plus, and it's a big one, you get to see the Alien Queen in action.:D

I guess you've never played aliens versus predator games?
At least in the second one there are these facehuggers, chestbursters, runners, drones, praetorians and finally the queen, not to mention predators. The aliens don't make that much difference between each other, but it sure adds a little spice to the gameplay, and then you can play AS an alien or a predator, that's when it gets interesting.

Well that shut some of my opinions up. But if it's realistic, why do you carry 4 weapons at a time and unlimited ammo?

Maybe they invent a super lightweight metal and fuel cells that can pull hydrogen out of the air in the future.
