AVP Given a Release Date

[deezelboy]

SEGA's given the release date for Aliens vs. Predator as February 2010 for all platforms on its AVP page.

Slightly related, but Eurogamer has announced that SEGA will be fielding playable versions of AVP at October's Eurogamer Expo:

Not only will Rebellion's sci-fi face-off be playable, but we've gotten our mitts on a multiplayer version, meaning you'll be able to settle any old scores about whether there's more elegance in phasing out of stealth to cut a throat, dropping from an air-vent to munch on a frontal lobe, or quivering in a dark corner and waving a pulse rifle at anything that moves. Overall winners will be rewarded with a special 'face-hug' from Tom. We were quite impressed when we previewed it recently, so we're looking forward to whipping out our motion sensors and doing a spot of cowering.

That seems pretty soon. Should I be worried, or just happy that I don't have to wait longer? Actually nevermind, I have to go to Afghanistan in February.

Looks like it's on target:

Read in the latest issue of Edge magazine that the Strause bros. will help develop the new game, which is planned for release in the next two years. They were originally approached for input at the start of AvP-R's production, but of course, didn't have the time. Now their freed up, however...

Nobody started promoting it until this year, so it just seems 'soon.'
