The character classes feel robust, and there are strong progression and customization systems in place to make Aliens and/or co-op shooter fanatics want to stick around past a single playthrough – that is no small feat when it comes to these games!

The Alien franchise had been transformed into 2D sidescrollers before, but, nonetheless, it was strange to see a new one launch in 2011 and only for the Nintendo DS. Developer: WayForward Technologies, Gearbox Software.
