My favourite glitch was when I was fighting the mother alien in the mecha suit and I got taken down, while inside the suit. So I could still control the suit while having my feet cosily rested up against the windscreen.

That glitch with the boss fight sounded like a royal pain in the ass. With the animation with the face bashing it also looked painful... probably the best part of the video.

My favourite glitch was when an alien somehow broke through a wall and disappeared in a different blue wall

Well, since you asked, the biggest glitch I came across was in that damn Raven boss fight when the boss glitched through a wall and disappeared like the power loader was being piloted by Vanellope Von Shweetz, leaving me to fight endless xenomorphs until I reloaded the last checkpoint.

Thank you for the MASSIVE Spoiler-warning in the middle of the review about Hicks. Oh, wait. THERE WAS NONE!

I bet it would've really sucked to have been the guy who kept getting revived only to get smacked back down again. Must've thought he was in hell or something.

Not a glitch per se but I just love the Aliens animation in this game.
They move nothing like how the Aliens move in the films. They sort of shuffle around like a pensioner in slippers and on some terrible ecstasy.

Am I the only one who thinks, that the bar in video game industry is now so low, that we allow such atrocities to be released? The worst thing about it is, that such disasters gain more media attention, that it distracts everyone from things that actually are good, thereby these publishers/developers get a free ride, and still cash in on the dross they put out in the market by the way of preorders. They must be punished.

I love how the arabic text at the end is just a bunch of arabic letters strung together without even being properly attached to make words. That pretty much sums up this game.

Ah, I was so looking forward to this one Yahtzee to tear this game a new one and you did so well. I am a happy camper.

The only glitch I got was O'Neal blocking the door in a mission where I had to go report to the high ranking officer after defending the base.

Ah how I loved this episode.
I knew it was going to end in shit, but it would of be damn funny if he told us it was good at the start and told us he faked it half way through.

This was still funny though.
What is up on the chopping block for next week?
Crysis 2.5?
Metal Gear Rising: revengence.
Tomb butt Raider?

Well I haven't played any of them ... I just like making funny names.

It's funny how Yahtzee comes across as being more professional in his critique than Jim Sterling or others. Maybe it's because he expects games to be bad and so is only surprised when they're good.

He's right about the series going down hill but I'd have to say that Aliens 3 (where they introduced Xenomorphs that develop differently depending on the species they gestate inside) was up there with the first two movies.

Cliff dive after that, though.

My favorite glitch was the one that caused the game to revert back to a build from around 2005 just as the game was going gold.
