Hey there, alien, why so blue? Is it because you’ve already ingested that squad of marines and have nothing else to play with? You know what’ll cheer you up? A little Eiffel 65.
Here’s the official box art for Aliens: Colonial Marines, a rather fetching image that’s sure to draw the eye, and once the eye is drawn the creepy tongue-with-a-mouth strikes! I figured I’d be nice and share that with you.

Friday, February 10, 2012 at 7:39 AMAfter Duke Nukem Forevers coverart I was sure Aliens Colonial Marines would be worse. I mean, it’s still a shit cover but nowhere near as bad as what they did to Duke Nukem Forever’s coverart..and the game itself which ex-3D Realms employees have publically spoken out against saying Triptych and Gearbox molested it.

Friday, February 10, 2012 at 9:57 AMIf you blink you might think this was the cover of epic Mickey on wii. The cover looks great but the white background seems odd.

Friday, February 10, 2012 at 4:29 PMI like it; the oppressive architecture of a damaged Hadley’s Hope blends in with the biomechanical structure of the xenomorph.
Also: “I’m blue if I don’t eat i will die, if I don’t eat I will die, if I don’t eat I will die…”
