AJ E3 2012: Star Trek, Aliens: CM, & Van Helsing!
Angry Joe takes a look at some games based on popular movie/book franchises. We get new details about the Multiplayer modes in Aliens: Colonial Marines (a full fledged sequel to Joe’s favorite Sci-fi franchise). Star Trek looks to provide players an authentic mid-sequel co-op experience before the newest Star Trek 2 film. And Finally, The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing hopes to tell the story of the famous hunter’s son with a good amount of humor and sarcastic fun.
Aliens: Colonial Marines Multiplayer & Story
With A Franchise Approved Sequel Story to the legendary Aliens, a 4-player Co-op campaign, and a multitude of Multiplayer modes from both Marines & Aliens – this game is simply a must buy in my opinion. Hell, I might even buy that $100 Limited Collectors Edition version for in-game skins of Sergeant Apone, Corporal Hicks, Private Drake and my favorite Private Hudson!
Star Trek: The Game
Could it be? Another great movie licensed game? The game had tricorder actions, Enterprise Orbital Strikes, plenty of cinematics and very fun banter back and forth between the cast! I was seriously excited about this game after the demo. (other than the fact that they just had to do it in 3D – Pic below)
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing
I had to check up on Indie Dev Neocore games who made my favs King Arthur and King Arthur II. They currently have two games, Van Helsing (Hack and Slasher) and Broken Sea (an RPG). Despite a misleading trailer the game itself look to provide a unique take on the Van Helsing legend from his son’s perspective.
DONT FORGET GUYS, if you plan on buying and supporting any of these games then visit our Missions Page and cast your vote!

So pumped for Aliens: colonial marines. if it doesn’t meet my expectations…. then it’s game over man, game over.
YAH the alein game looks badass i bet that joe will rate it a 10 out of 10 with the badass seal of aprovel
nothing sexier than a smart gamer chic that knows her stuff and has a accent..im talking about the skinny1 i would bang her as hard as i would bang the ST game to the gound if it dissapoints..and ACM should be fun to play as the FREAKING ALIENS..cant wait
The new ST movie is garbage. Utter garbage with plot holes of epic proportions.
A game based on it…MEh. It certanly can’t be worse than the movie. Maybe it will actually be good.
Colonial Marines? That one is interesting.
Did anyone else love how Joe nearly face-palmed when the answer to “Why was Aliens: CM delayed” was “We just wanted to be sure we did it right…”
Lol joe does not know how to communicate with hot women.
I saw joe’s interview on Aliens: CM and what caught my attention were the items inside the glass case, does anyone know if what they showed there would be given out for pre-order offers???
The new Star Trek game looks freaking awesome. Its cool to see a dev get excited and geek out a little over the genre of the game they’re making. Definitely on my ‘to buy’ list now! Thanks Angry Joe!
Third person Aliens? Man Colonial Marines looks even more of a console game than AvP 2010 was. Probably doesn’t have DX11 or dedicated server support like AvP 2010 did either. Damn I mourn the good old days of AvP2 online. Dude even said he remembered playing it, and how cool it was to facehug someone. But you didn’t put it in the new game why?!
Joe, how were you still that pumped up on day 3?
Yeah, well, even diablo isn’t living up to its name as of late, it’s very disappointing, dont knock it til you try it!
Like how you tried to impress the girls with acients … keep up the good work joe! good reviews!
Despite all the effort Neocore games put into making this Van Helsing game..it doesn’t look too good. My gamer sense is tingling and saying to avoid this game as much as possible.
First too games look awesome but that van helsing game? What the hell why does the protagonist look like a whimp? Should look more like Hugh Jackman. And the game is clearly just a poor mans diablo.
Can’t wait to play Aliens: Colonial Marines. And with the interview, I’m freaking out for Star Trek. First thought it was just another movie-licensed game like we all know they are. But this game looks pretty sweet.
Van Helsing on the other hand, I will with pleasure leave it on the shelves.
The first two games look alright. I’m not expecting much with the star trek game though. the Van Helsing game looks kinda lame though. To final fantasy in appearance, van helsing is English / American not a freaking anime character.
ha, not to mention the game play is a exact copy of diablo imo anyway.
The latest Diablo 3 was actually copied from a garbage disposal unit.
I’m loo king forward for this star trek. I was never a star trek fan because i felt it was boring and dumb as hell… as for the original series, at least. But, on the other and, i always loved the theme “to go were no man has gone before”. It’s a damn good concept for a game and i hope they do it well this time (better than mass effect space exploration? you betta!)
I gotta say, I know I said this on Twitter to you, but you were just fantastic. Those guys had excitement, but it looked like you cared more about the game than they did. Alien and Trek look amazing in my opinion, I cannot wait for these games to come out. It looks like both of them got the “Arkham Treatment.” Arkham Treatment being that they both were put on hold because they wanted to release a better product. All the questions you asked were really fair too.
tl;dr Interview was good, games were great, and hope to see more. Good job!
Aliens:CM and Star Trek both look amazing. Then Dead Space 3 comes out all in the same month? So..many..games..to…buy…
6:46 theres a cut! Tell us what confidential stuff u caught on tape!!!
Reveal us the top secret part of that conversation! Freedom of speech 😀
Aliens: CM, nobody had done that multiplayer shtick before?!? DEAD SPACE 2 HAD THE EXACT SAME FRIGGIN’ THING!!!
Aliens: Colonial Marines – best valentine’s day gift ever.
Joe, why didnt you ask what kind of special feature controls WIi U will support??? for aliens cm
.
I’m loving the new Van Helsing protagonist, he looks sexy.
.
.
Final Fantasy: van Helsing?? You must be gay as hell…
i like the blonde, blue eye charming combo.
also, im secure enough in my sexuality to say openly if a man’s facial features are attractive or not.
besides, why should EVERY FUCKING MODERN GAME HAVE A GRIZZLED; GROUCHY, MIDDLE AAGED, DARK UNSHAVEN MAN who sounds like he smokes three pack of cigarettes every day.
I liked; DanteDMC3, TIdus from FF X, and I fucking loved Raiden from MGS 2.
So fuck you.
I hope the animations in ACM is going to be better, looks almost as bad as Morrowind animations with the aliens, I’m not even going to sniff in the direction of Star Trek until i see some reviews and Van Helsing looks like a Diablo 3 knock off which I haven’t even got yet so I’m not interested in that either.
and how do you keep up your energy Joe? vast amounts of mountain dew?
AC3 Ship combat!? Hell Yeah!
Now im all pumped up about A:CM
all I have to say is ACM better not be a borderlands: alien universe edition, I’m expecting some kick ass story for a movie I grew up watching.
Alien multiplayer sounds like Left 4 Dead.
I couldn’t understand a fuckin’ word that bitch said.
Aliens cm looks awesome!!! Thanks joe
great interviews Joe, freaking cant wait for Aliens colonial marines.
Really great interviews Joe you managed to combine being both professional and enthusiastic
How awesome would it be if we find out Hudson survived on LV-426 and became a total badass wiping out tons of xenos all by himself?
ahh come on… lol Aliens got delayed again. I’m never gonna be able to play this game. And Joe you need to ask one of these companies to create a Starship Troopers game. That would be fun as hell.
there is a starship troopers allready but its russian i think.
anyways. great interwievs and again what is the song in the end of these videos?
The song is Suffer My Disbelief by Callenish Circle. Its on iTunes for .99c
thank you.
but have to say alltough good song but i dont fall in love engough to buy theyr production.
