Here is someone completing a level of the new Aliens game without firing a shot
NSFW
Comedy AI allows you to run past the most efficient killing machine in the galaxy (or whatever the quote is, I can't be arsed to look it up).
NSFW button pressed because there's a wee bit of fairly mild swearing, but it's better to be safe than sorry with that.

hahaa, do Gearbox not have a QA department?
The reviews have made pretty amusing reading

Not just Gearbox
I can't even remember the last time I played a game that didn't have at least one blatant bug, and I haven't even played Skyrim.

I even broke one of the achievements in FTL...games are so complex now that they'll probably never be bug-free.
I've been in video game QA for the last few years and the primary concern is making sure the player can do everything without the game crashing or their save being deleted (of which some modern games still fail at).
Although from what I've been hearing today Colonial Marines is just seven shades of shit.

They do
Unfortunately, as the day has gone on it has transpired that despite Gearbox's name being on it they didn't actually work on anything other than the multiplayer elements. They decided outsourcing the single player to 3 different studios each with reputations for producing shit masquerading as games, was a good idea.

Well that's piss poor programming to allow that to be done where's the challenge in running past things?

Most other studios would fold
after releasing this and Duke Nukem Forever so close to each other. Randy Pitchford must be running on pure good will.

DnF was great fun!
Did you even play it?
ACM, like DnF has been anticipated forever, and I reckon it will also be great fun.
Take your gamepad out yer arse.

I made the mistake of preordering it
Saw the reviews today, luckily I hadn't opened my game yet, boxed it back up, returning it!
